351 Ark. 674

Maxwell v. State

Supreme Court of Arkansas

Decided February 6, 2003

Supreme Court of Arkansas · decided 2003-02-06

Relies on Rogers v. State

Decided 2003-02-06

Per Curiam.

¶1Appellant Richard Harold Maxwell, by and through his attorney, David L. Chambers, has filed a motion for rule on clerk. Mr. Chambers, states in the motion that his motion to extend the time to file the record was not filed in timely fashion due to a mistake on his part.

¶2 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).

¶3The motion is, therefore, granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
