Supreme Court of Arkansas

Childers v. State

October 9, 20142014 Ark. 422

Summary

The court granted the appellant's motion for rule on clerk after appointed counsel candidly admitted responsibility for the untimely filing of the appellate record. It also granted counsel's motion to withdraw because a full-time, state-salaried public defender with a state-funded secretary was ineligible for compensation for appellate work, and it appointed replacement counsel.
