Newborn v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Newborn v. State, 359 Ark. 160 (Ark. 2004)
194 S.W.3d 770
Newborn v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant Alexander Newborn, by and through his attorney, Alan LeVar, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. Attorney LeVar states in the motion that the record was tendered late 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.
