Opinion

Leonard Lee EMBRY v. STATE of Arkansas CR 94-864 883 S.W.2d 471 Supreme Court of Arkansas Opinion delivered September 19, 1994 John W. Settle, for appellant. No reponse. [MAJORITY — Per Curiam.] Per Curiam. Leonard Lee Embry, by his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, John W. Settle, admits by motion that the record was filed untimely 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 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.
