Cite as 2011 Ark. 319 SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS No. CR 10-1143 ROBERT LEE DAVIS, JR. APPELLANT V. STATE OF ARKANSAS APPELLEE PER CURIAM Following a jury trial, appellant Robert Lee Davis, Jr. was convicted of one count of capital murder and one count of aggravated robbery. He was sentenced to life without parole. The issue on appeal is whether Daviss sister, Latasha Smith, should have been deemed unavailable as a witness. We order that Davis submit a supplemental addendum within seven calendar days to cure deficiencies in his addendum. Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 4-2(a)(8) requires that an appellants brief include an addendum consisting of all documents essential to the appellate courts resolution of the issues on appeal. In cases where there was a jury trial, the jurys verdict forms shall be included. See Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(a)(8)(A)(i). Because Davis has not included the jurys verdict forms in his addendum, we direct him to correct this deficiency by filing a supplemental addendum within seven calendar days from the date of this opinion. See Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(b)(4); InOpinion Delivered September 2, 2011 APPEAL FROM THE PULASKI COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT, [NO. CR-2009-1024] HON. MARION HUMPHREY, JUDGE, SUPPLEMENTAL ADDENDUM ORDERED.
Cite as 2011 Ark. 319 re 4-2(b) of the Rules of the Supreme Court, 2011 Ark. 141. We strongly encourage appellate counsel, prior to filing the supplemental addendum, to review our rules as well as the addendum to ensure that no additional deficiencies are present. 2
