George JORDAN v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 96-228

916 S.W.2d 732

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered March 4, 1996

Henry C. Morris, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

The appellant, George Jordan, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney, Henry C. Morris, 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. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Profes*617sional Conduct.
