Cite as 2011 Ark. 347 SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS No. CR10-1164 GREGORY HOLT Opinion Delivered September 9, 2011 APPELLANT APPEAL FROM THE PULASKI V. COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT [NO. 2009-2188] STATE OF ARKANSAS HON. MARION HUMPHREY, JUDGE APPELLEE SUPPLEMENTAL ADDENDUM ORDERED. PER CURIAM Following a jury trial, appellant Gregory Holt was convicted of aggravated residential burglary and first-degree battery and sentenced to life imprisonment. On appeal, appellant argues that there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction, that the trial court erred in allowing appellant to be shackled in front of the jury, that his sentence was excessive and cruel, that the prosecuting attorney erroneously inflamed the jury by referencing appellants Muslim faith during the sentencing phase, and the prosecuting attorney misled the jury as to appellants parole eligibility. We order appellant to file a supplemental addendum within seven calendar days to cure deficiencies in his addendum. Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 4-2(a)(8) (2011) requires that an appellants brief include an addendum consisting of all documents essential to the appellate courts resolution of the issues on appeal. In addition, pursuant to Rule 4-2(a)(8)(A)(i), in a case where there

Because Holt has not included the jury verdict forms in his addendum, we order him to correct this deficiency by filing a supplemental addendum within seven calendar days from the date of this opinion. Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(b)(4); see also 4-2(b) of the Rules of the Supreme Court, 2011 Ark. 141. We 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
