Supreme Court of Arkansas

Holmes v. State

October 31, 20132013 Ark. 437

Summary

The court granted the petitioner's motion for rule on clerk because his suspended private counsel failed to complete the appellate record and the circumstances constituted good reason for the delay. It also appointed counsel after finding the petitioner indigent and granted a writ of certiorari directing the circuit court to transmit the remainder of the record so the sentencing appeal could proceed. The complete record was ordered within thirty days, after which a briefing schedule would be set.
