Richard CONGER v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 98-892

973 S.W.2d 481

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered September 10, 1998

Naif S. Khoury, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Appellant Richard Conger, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Naif S. Khoury, admits in his motion that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by an attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See In re Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).

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