Appellant, Keela McGahey, filed a motion for rule on the clerk, which we granted in McGahey v. State, 359 Ark. 252, 195 S.W.3d 922 (2004). In McGahey, we stated that “the motion and accompanying record fail[ed] to reveal plainly whether there was an attorney’s error,” on the part of appellant’s former counsel, Mr. Jimmy Doyle. We remanded the matter of attorney error to the circuit court to make findings of fact. Id.
On November 19, 2004, an order from the Desha County Circuit Court containing those findings was filed with our court. At the hearing, evidence was presented that is consistent with McGahey, supra, where we stated:
On May 15,2003, the court reporter forwarded a letter to Mr. Doyle, outlining the parties’ conversation regarding payment of the *95record. On June 20, 2003, the court reporter again forwarded a letter to Mr. Doyle, notifying him that the time for filing the record had passed. The court reporter also noted the possibility of appellant being declared indigent.
Mr. Doyle sent a letter dated February 9, 2004, to appellant, requesting that she sign an affidavit to receive the record as a pauper. Appellant signed and returned the affidavit to Mr. Doyle on February 18,2004.
The trial court further ruled that there was no motion or order in the file that indicates that Mr. Doyle requested or was relieved as attorney of record for appellant.
We hereby relieve Mr. Doyle as attorney of record sua sponte and order Mr. Doyle to appear before this court at 9:00 a.m., on Thursday, January 13, 2005, to show cause as to why he should not be held in contempt for his conduct in representing appellant in failing to secure the record for appellant’s appeal.
We note that in McGahey, supra, we granted appellant’s motion to substitute counsel. Mr. Hubert W. Alexander is the attorney of record in appellant’s case.
It is so ordered.
