ALONZO WATSON APPELLANT v. STATE OF ARKANSAS APPELLEE

James Law Firm, by: George "Birc" Morledge, IV, for appellant. Dustin McDaniel, Att'y Gen., by: David R. Raupp, Sr. Ass't Att'y Gen., for appellee.


APPEAL FROM THE PULASKI

COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT,

[NO. CR-10-3785]


HONORABLE HERBERT THOMAS

WRIGHT, JR., JUDGE


REBRIEFING ORDERED.


PER CURIAM

Appellant Alonzo Watson appeals an order of the Pulaski County Circuit Court convicting him of capital murder and sentencing him to life imprisonment. For reversal, appellant argues that the circuit court erred in denying his motion to suppress a statement. We order appellant to file a supplemental addendum within seven calendar days to cure deficiencies in his addendum.

Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 4-2(a)(8) (2012) requires that an appellant's brief include an addendum consisting of all documents essential to the appellate court's resolution of the issues on appeal. Additionally, pursuant to Rule 4—2(a)(8)(A)(i), in a case involving a jury trial, the jury-verdict forms must be included in the addendum. Because appellant has not included the jury-verdict forms in his addendum, we order him to correct this deficiency by filing a supplemental addendum within seven calendar days from the date of this opinion. Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(b)(4); In Re 4-2(b) of the Rules of the Supreme Court, 2011 Ark. 141 (per curiam). We further encourage appellant to review our rules to determine if any additional pleadings must be included in the addendum.

Rebriefing ordered.
