Jimmy Dean WELCH v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 93-1051

868 S.W.2d 32

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered October 11, 1993

Phil Kinsey, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

The appellant, Jimmy Dean Welch, by his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, Phil Kinsey, 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.

The motion is therefore granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
