Burton v. State

669 S.W.2d 1, 282 Ark. 417, 1984 Ark. LEXIS 1664
Supreme Court of Arkansas·Decided May 14, 1984·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Donald Ray Burton, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, James W. Haddock, 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.

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