ARKANSAS SUPREME COURT No. CR 06-171 NOT DESIGNATED FOR PUBLICATION JESUS BARRAGAN Appellant v. STATE OF ARKANSAS Appellee Opinion Delivered May 4, 2006 PRO SE MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE BRIEF [CIRCUIT COURT OF BENTON COUNTY, CR 2005-163-2, HON. DAVID S. CLINGER, JUDGE] MOTION GRANTED PER CURIAM A judgment and commitment order entered in Benton County Circuit Court on August 26, 2005, reflects that appellant Jesus Barragan entered a negotiated plea of guilty to one count of accomplice to delivery of a controlled substance, methamphetamine, and was sentenced to 180 months’ imprisonment in the Arkansas Department of Correction. Appellant timely filed a petition for postconviction relief pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1, which was denied by the trial court. Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal and lodged the appeal from that order in this court. Appellant, who is in the custody of the Arkansas Department of Correction and proceeding pro se, filed a timely motion seeking an extension of time to file his brief, which we grant. Because appellant has tendered his brief within the time granted, the clerk is directed to accept the brief forthwith. Motion granted.
