Allen Edward JACKSON v. STATE of Arkansas
    725 S.W.2d 573
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered March 16, 1987
    
      Joel W. Price, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Appellant, Allen Edward Jackson, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, Joel W. Price, admits that the notice of appeal was not timely given due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See our Per Curiam opinion dated February 5,1979, In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
