Smith v. State , 323 Ark. 804 ( 1996 )


Menu:
  • Per Curiam.

    Appellant, Joel P. Smith, by his attorney, has filed for a belated appeal.

    His attorney, Robert S. Tschiemer, admits that the failure to file the record in time was 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, 265 Ark. 964. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
