We remind counsel that the examples we have noted are not to be taken as an exhaustive list of deficiencies. Counsel should carefully review the rules to ensure that no other deficiencies exist. Failure to file a compliant brief within fifteen days could result in the trial court’s decision being summarily affirmed for noncompliance with our rules. 6 Rebriefing ordered. HART and HOOFMAN, JJ., agree. 3 Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(a)(8)(A)(ii). 4 Counsel has failed to set out the standard of review with respect to a challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence and the elements of the offense charged. 5 Ark. Sup. Ct.
