Dworshak v. State

45 S.W.3d 386, 345 Ark. 286, 2001 Ark. LEXIS 357

Supreme Court of Arkansas·Decided June 14, 2001·No. CR 01-604·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Ronald J. Dworshak, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Lynn F. Plemmons, 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.
