Don JENNINGS v. STATE of Arkansas
    CR 96-1396
    933 S.W.2d 393
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered December 9, 1996
    Christopher Carter, for appellant.
   PER CURIAM.

Appellant, Don Jennings, by his attorney, Christopher Carter, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney admits by motion that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part by relying on the court reporter’s calculation of the due date.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by the 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). The motion is therefore granted.

A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
