Opinion delivered September 18, 1989
APPEAL ERROR — MOTION FOR RULE ON THE CLERK — GOOD CAUSE FOR GRANTING. — An admission by an attorney for a criminal defendant that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part is good cause to grant a motion for rule on the clerk.
Motion for Rule on the Clerk; granted.
Robert L. Scull, for movant.
No response.
We have previously dismissed a petition for rule on the clerk without prejudice. See McCraney v. State, 299 Ark. 410, 772 S.W.2d 597 (1989). Attorney Robert L. Scull, of Darrell F. Brown Associates, P.A., has filed an affidavit admitting it was his fault that the record was not timely filed. Therefore, the petition for rule on the clerk is granted. A copy of this per curiam will be sent to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
