    Michael James WICKER v. STATE of Arkansas
    CR 02-1161
    89 S.W.3d 931
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered November 21, 2002
    
      Richard Mattison, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Appellant Michael James Wicker, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for rule on clerk. The court considers the motion as a motion for belated appeal. His attorney, Richard Mattison, states in the motion that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by an attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See In Re Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).

The motion is, therefore, granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
