Holloway v. Ark. Dep't of Human Servs. (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant’s attorney, Jeffrey Kearney, failed to timely file a notice of appeal from the circuit court’s order terminating Appellant’s parental rights. Appellant, by and through her attorney, brought this motion for rule on clerk in which Kearney admitted fault for failing to timely lodge the record with the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court granted the motion, holding (1) although the motion was presented as a motion for rule on clerk wherein Kearney accepted fault for the failure to timely lodge the record, the motion should be treated as a motion for belated appeal because of Kearney’s failure to timely file the notice of appeal; and (2) Appellant was entitled to relief.
