Franklin Woolery GAITHER v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 96-1271

931 S.W.2d 442

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered November 11, 1996

Chester A. Baugus, for appellant.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant, Franklin Woolery Gaither, by his attorney, Chester A. Baugus, 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).

A copy of this per curiam will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.
