    Dirk JOHNSON v. STATE of Arkansas
    CA CR 97-1444
    959 S.W.2d 54
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered February 26, 1998
    
      Norman M. Smith, for appellant.
    No response.
   Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Dirk Johnson, by his attorney, Norman M. Smith, has filed a motion for belated appeal. His attorney admits that he failed to file the notice of appeal on time.

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).

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.
