James LUMPKIN v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 04-39

144 S.W.3d 281

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Opinion delivered January 29, 2004

Don Etherly, for appellant.

No response.

Per Curiam.

Appellant James Lumpkin, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His *678attorney, Don Etherly, states in the 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.
