STATE of Arkansas 697 S.W.2d 118 Supreme Court of Arkansas Opinion delivered October 14, 1985 APPEAL & ERROR - MOTION FOR RULE ON THE CLERK - SUFFICIENT CAUSE FOR GRANTING. - Where an attorney for a criminal defendant admits that the record was tendered late due to a miscalculation on his part, this is good cause for granting a motion for rule on the clerk. Motion for Rule on the Clerk; motion granted. Neil V. Pennick, for petitioner. Steve Clark, Att'y Gen., by: Theodore Holder, Asst. Att'y Gen., for respondent. PER CURIAM. Petitioner, Willard Robbins, by his attorney, Neil V. Pennick, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to his miscalculation of the seven-month maximum limit for filing the record in this Court. See Rule 5, Ark. R. App. P., Ark. Stat. Ann., Vol. 3A (Repl. 1979). [1] We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See per curiam dated February 5, 1979, 265 Ark. 964; Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243 (1981). A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
