    George JONES, Jr. v. STATE of Arkansas
    CR 96-922
    926 S.W.2d 665
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered September 9, 1996
    
      Davis H. Loftin, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per CURIAM.

Appellant George Jones, Jr., by his attorney, Davis H. Loftin, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. We treat this as a motion for a belated appeal. Mr. Loftin states by motion that he miscalculated the number of days in which to file a notice of appeal and, as a result, filed the notice one day late.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by the 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.
