Larry JOHNSON v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 96-748

925 S.W.2d 427

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered July 15, 1996

Jeffery H. Kearney, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Larry Johnson, by his attorney, Jeffery H. Kearney, 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, 295 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).
