Allen v. State

795 S.W.2d 58, 303 Ark. 253, 1990 Ark. LEXIS 418
Supreme Court of Arkansas·Decided September 24, 1990·No. RC 90-47·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Augusta Allen, Jr., by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, Henry J. Swift, admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See our Per Curiam opinion dated February 5,1979, In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.

A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
