Hale v. State

938 S.W.2d 857, 327 Ark. 539, 1997 Ark. LEXIS 131
Supreme Court of Arkansas·Decided March 10, 1997·No. CR 97-192·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Kevin Wayne Hale, by his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, A. Wayne Davis, 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 the 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.
