Opinion

James K. RIDLING v. STATE of Arkansas 702 S.W.2d 811 Supreme Court of Arkansas Opinion delivered February 10, 1986 Wayne Emmons and John W. Leach, for appellant. No response. [MAJORITY — Per Curiam.] Per Curiam. Appellant, James K. Ridling, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, John W. Leach, admits that the record was tendered late 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. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
