Nathan T. MATTHEWS v. STATE of Arkansas

RC 90-40

793 S.W.2d 793

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered September 10, 1990

Callis L. Childs, for movant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Nathan T. Matthews, by his attorney, Callis L. Childs, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981); In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).
