Bolton v. State
Citations: 342 Ark. 3; 25 S.W.3d 412; 2000 Ark. LEXIS 378Docket: CR 00-881
Court: Supreme Court of Arkansas; September 7, 2000; Arkansas; State Supreme Court
Charles Ray Bolton, represented by attorney Joseph D. Hughes, submitted a motion for rule on the clerk due to a late tendering of the record, which Hughes acknowledged was a result of his own mistake. The court determined that this error constitutes good cause for granting the motion, citing the precedent set in In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979). Consequently, the motion for rule on the clerk is granted. Additionally, a copy of the opinion will be sent to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
