Sean RIGGINS v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 94-44

870 S.W.2d 377

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered January 31, 1994

Mark F. Hampton, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Sean Riggins, by his attorney, Mark F. Hampton, 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).
