Hiang v. State

Supreme Court of Arkansas
Hiang v. State, 356 Ark. 120 (Ark. 2004)
146 S.W.3d 894; 2004 Ark. LEXIS 86

Hiang v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellants Mary Hiang and Consuella Terrell, by and through their attorney, Gregory E. Bryant, have filed a motion for rule on clerk. Mr. Bryant admits responsibility for failing to timely file the record due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by an attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).

The motion is, therefore, granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
