Kedron JOHNSON v. STATE of Arkansas
CR 01-1015
57 S.W.3d 162
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Opinion delivered October 11, 2001
James Law Firm, by: Clay T. Buchanan, for appellant.
No response.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
Appellant Kedron Johnson, by and through his has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. The motion reflects that the record on appeal was due to be filed on September 14, 2001. The record was tendered with this court's clerk on September 18, 2001. Appellant's attorney, Clay T. Buchanan, admits in his motion 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. Jones v. State, 338 Ark. 29, 992 S.W.2d 85 (1999) (per curiam) (citing Tarry v. State, 288 Ark. 172, 702 S.W.2d 804 (1986)(per curiam)).
The motion for rule on the clerk is, therefore, granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. See In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979)(per curiam).
