Dorenda Gail FRETWELL v. STATE of Arkansas
    RC 89-7
    765 S.W.2d 576
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered February 27, 1989
    
      Jack M. Lewis, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Dorenda Fretwell, by her attorney, Jack M. Lewis, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. Her attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part in posting the filing date on his calendar.

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 opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979).
