Opinion

Shane PACK v. STATE of Arkansas CR 98-1358 983 S.W.2d 126 Supreme Court of Arkansas Opinion delivered January 28, 1999 Clarence W. Cash, for appellant. No response. [MAJORITY — Per Curiam.] Per Curiam. Appellant Shane Pack, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for belated appeal. His attorney, Clarence W. Cash, 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.
