Rodney Lamont HARRIS v. STATE of Arkansas

RC 90-66

798 S.W.2d 926

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered December 10, 1990

William R. Simpson, Jr., Public Defender, by: Howard W. Koopman, Deputy Public Defender, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Rodney Lamont Harris, by his attorney, Howard W. Koopman, 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).
