Morris WOODS, Jr. v. STATE of Arkansas

638 S.W.2d 677

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered September 13, 1982

Robert B. Lamb, for appellant.

Steve Clark, Atty. Gen., by: Alice Ann Burns, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Morris Woods, Jr., by his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, Robert B. Lamb, 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, 265 Ark. 964.

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