MICHAEL LOVE
Appellant
February 21, 2008
PRO SE PETITION FOR REHEARING
[CIRCUIT COURT OF PULASKI
COUNTY, CR 20044921, HON.
BARRY A. SIMS, JUDGE]
v.
STATE OF ARKANSAS
Appellee
PETITION DENIED.
PER CURIAM
Now before us is appellant’s pro se petition for rehearing. On December 13, 2007, this court
affirmed the trial court’s denial of appellant’s petition pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1. Love v.

State, CR 061236 (Ark. Dec. 13, 2007) (per curiam).
Appellant has failed to meet his burden of demonstrating that there was some error of fact or
law in the decision that would merit a rehearing pursuant to Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 23. In the petition
before us, appellant reiterates the same grounds advanced in the appeal from the trial court’s decision.
Although appellant now appends transcripts from the plea hearing and sentencing hearing to his
petition, a request for rehearing is not a means to supplement the record on appeal.
Petition denied.

Rule 23(a) of the Rules of the Supreme Court requires that petitions for rehearing be filed within
eighteen calendar days from the date of the decision. The eighteenth day from the date of the decision was
December 31, 2007, and appellant filed his petition on January 2, 2008. While mail was delivered on
Monday, December 31, 2007, our clerk’s office did not process all mandates due to the decrease in staff
resulting from the January 1st holiday. As the mandate was not issued, the petition was timely filed.
