Decided October 21, 1996

Supreme Court of Arkansas · decided 1996-10-21

Relies on Rogers v. State

Decided 1996-10-21

Per Curiam.

¶1Appellant Michael Leonard Jones, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Charles A. Potter, admits that the failure to file the record in time was due to a mistake on his part.

¶2 We find that such an error, admittedly made by the 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). A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
