                           PER CURIAM

     Petitioner, Timothy G. Evans, by his attorney, Charles E.
Davis, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk.  His attorney
admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his
part.  
     We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for
a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion.  See
