Per Curiam.

¶1Petitioner, Kenneth Hawkins, by his attorney Tjuana C. Byrd, Deputy Public Defender for the Sixth Judicial District, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on her part.

¶2 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, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).

¶3A copy of this per curiam will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.
