Kenneth HAWKINS v. STATE of Arkansas
    CR 01-1065
    57 S.W.3d 170
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered October 18, 2001
    
      Tjuana C. Byrd, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Kenneth Hawkins, by his attorney Tjuana C. Byrd, Deputy Public Defender for the Sixth Judicial District, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on her part.

We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981); In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).

A copy of this per curiam will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.
