Head Matter:
Howard COCKRUM v. STATE of Arkansas
RC 89-3
763 S.W.2d 661
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Opinion delivered February 13, 1989
Larry Dean Kissee, for appellant.
No objection filed.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
Appellant, Howard Cockrum, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.
His attorney, Larry Dean Kissee, admits that the failure to file the record in time was 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 our Per Curiam opinion dated February 5,1979, In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
