Conger v. State

973 S.W.2d 481, 334 Ark. 235, 1998 Ark. LEXIS 477

Supreme Court of Arkansas·Decided September 10, 1998·No. CR 98-892·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Appellant Richard Conger, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Naif S. Khoury, admits in his 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.
