#### Joel P. SMITH v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 96-261

917 S.W.2d 168

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered March 18, 1996

*805 Robert S. Tschiemer, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Joel P. Smith, by his attorney, has filed for a belated appeal.

His attorney, Robert S. Tschiemer, admits that the failure to file the record in time was 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.
