    William Avon NEAL v. STATE of Arkansas
    CR 98-1318
    979 S.W.2d 93
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered November 19, 1998
    
      John L. Kearny, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Appellant, William Avon Neal, by his attorney, John L. Kearney, has filed a motion for belated appeal. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981); In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 295 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).

Because appellant’s attorney admitted fault and his motion was proper under Ark. R. App. P. — Crim. 2, the motion to file belated appeal was granted, and the per curiam was treated as a motion for rule on the clerk.

A copy of this per curiam will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.
