Undra Monta SINGLETON v. STATE of Arkansas CR 02-057 ___ S.W.3d ___ Supreme Court of Arkansas Opinion delivered February 7, 2002 Appeal &amp; error -- motion for rule on clerk -- good cause for granting. -- An admission by an attorney for a criminal defendant that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part is good cause to grant a motion for rule on the clerk. Motion for Rule on the Clerk; granted. Don G. Gillaspie, for appellant. No response. Per Curiam. Appellant, Undra Monta Singleton, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Don G. Gillaspie, states in his motion that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part. We find that such an error, admittedly made by an 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). Therefore, the motion is granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
