McBride v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
McBride v. State, 357 Ark. 649 (Ark. 2004)
187 S.W.3d 856; 2004 Ark. LEXIS 378
McBride v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant Ray McBride, Sr., by and through am. attorney, B. Kenneth Johnson, has filed a motion for rule on clerk. Mr. Johnson 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.
