App. 485 (unpublished) ARKANSAS COURT OF APPEALS DIVISION I No. CACR08-1447 BLAKE DOWELL MCKENZIE, APPELLANT Opinion Delivered17 JUNE 2009 APPEAL FROM THE CARROLL COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT, [NO. CR-08-21-WD] V. STATE OF ARKANSAS, APPELLEE THE HONORABLE ALAN D. EPLEY, JUDGE SUPPLEMENTAL RECORD and REBRIEFING ORDERED D.P. MARSHALL JR., Judge The circuit court dismissed Blake McKenzie’s appeal from district court in this criminal case for want of jurisdiction. We order a supplemental record and rebriefing. In his notice of appeal, McKenzie designated “the entire record, including but not limited to all pleadings, proceedings, exhibits, evidence and documents introduced or offered into evidence for CR08-21 WD.” McKenzie’s case, however, was first assigned a different case number—CR08-13 WD—in circuit court. The circuit clerk included one order, but no other document, from CR08-13 WD in the record filed with this court. We order McKenzie to correct this omission by securing and filing a supplemental record containing a certified copy of the entire circuit court file in CR08-13 WD. Ark. R. App. P.–Civil 6(e). McKenzie should file this supplemental record within fifteen days. We also order rebriefing. This court needs every available document to untangle the jurisdictional issue presented on appeal. And all those documents need to be in McKenzie’s addendum. McKenzie’s current addendum is incomplete, and of course more documents will be available for inclusion once the supplemental record is filed. McKenzie shall therefore file a new brief with a complete addendum within fifteen days of filing the supplemental record. Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(b)(3). The State shall have fifteen days thereafter to file a new appellee’s brief. PITTMAN and HENRY, JJ., agree. -2-
