        "text": "Per Curiam.\nThe appellant\u2019s only argument in this case is that the evidence is insufficient to support his conviction. He was tried by the judge without a jury.\nIn an eleven sentence argument, the State\u2019s only response is that we should not consider the issue of the sufficiency of the evidence because appellant failed to make a motion for directed verdict at trial, either at the close of the State\u2019s case or at the close of all the evidence. The State relies on Ark. R. Crim. P. 36.21, Greer v. State, 310 Ark. 522, 837 S.W.2d 884 (1992) and Collins v. State, 308 Ark. 536, 826 S.W.2d 231 (1992). Rule 36.21 provides:\nWhen there has been a trial by jury, the failure of a defendant to move for a directed verdict at the conclusion of the evidence presented by the prosecution and at the close of the case because of insufficiency of the evidence will constitute a waiver of any question pertaining to the sufficiency of the evidence to support the jury verdict.\nIn Igwe v. State, 312 Ark. 220, 849 S.W.2d 462 (1993), the Arkansas Supreme Court held there is no authority for applying the requirement of Rule 36.21 in a non-jury situation and cited several cases of this court in which we held the rule does not apply in non-jury situations. Our supreme court pointed out that Collins was an appeal from a judgment which resulted from a jury trial and overruled Greer to the extent it required a criminal defendant in a non-jury trial to move for a directed verdict at the conclusion of the evidence to preserve the issue of the sufficiency of the evidence.\nBecause the State\u2019s brief in the instant case was filed before the supreme court\u2019s opinion in Igwe was filed, we think it is proper to afford the State an opportunity to file a new brief and respond to appellant\u2019s argument on the sufficiency of the evidence. This is in keeping with our past procedure where we allowed an appellant to file a new brief when his abstract was insufficient, Gass v. State, 16 Ark. App. 202, 699 S.W.2d 408 (1985), and where we directed both sides to rebrief an issue not mentioned by either side, Jones v. State, 27 Ark. App. 24, 765 S.W.2d 15 (1989).\nThe State is given 30 days from today to file its brief, and the appellant may file a reply within 20 days thereafter.",
