Larry STEPHENSON v. STATE of Arkansas
    CR 98-120
    959 S.W.2d 56
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered February 26, 1998
    
      Lori A. Mosby, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Appellant Larry Stephenson, by his attorney Lori A. Mosby, has filed a motion for belated appeal. Mosby admits by motion that the appeal was not timely filed due to a mistake on her 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.
