Opinion

Harold TROUP v. STATE of Arkansas CR 02-376 74 S.W.3d 205 Supreme Court of Arkansas Opinion delivered May 2, 2002 Bart Ziegenhorn, for appellant. No response. [MAJORITY — PER CURIAM.] PER CURIAM. Appellant, Harold Troup, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for belated appeal. Attorney Bart Ziegenhorn admits by motion that the appeal was not timely filed 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). The motion is, therefore, granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
