Motion for Rule on the Clerk; granted. Bob Keeter, for appellant. No response. PER CURIAM. J.W. "Dub" Stipes, by his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Phyllis B. Worley, admits by motion and brief that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on her part. [1] 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 In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979). The motion is, therefore, granted.
