Melvin GRIFFIN v. STATE of Arkansas
    CR 97-843
    949 S.W.2d 892
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered September 11, 1997
    
      Claudell Woods, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Melvin Griffin, by his attorney, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney, Claudell Woods, admits in his’motion that the record was tendered late 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 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.
