Opinion

Franklin Woolery GAITHER v. STATE of Arkansas CR 96-1271 931 S.W.2d 442 Supreme Court of Arkansas Opinion delivered November 11, 1996 Chester A. Baugus, for appellant. [MAJORITY — PER CURIAM.] PER CURIAM. Appellant, Franklin Woolery Gaither, by his attorney, Chester A. Baugus, 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 Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981); In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 295 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam). A copy of this per curiam will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.
