Robert Stephen HILL v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 02-700

83 S.W.3d 416

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered September 5, 2002

James E. Hensley, Jr., for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Appellant Robert Stephen Hill, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for rule on clerk. Attorney, James E. Hensley, Jr., states in the 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.
