Butler v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CasePetitioner was found guilty in one case of aggravated robbery and misdemeanor theft of property. Petitioner was also found guilty in another case that same year of being a felon in possession of a firearm, filing a false report with law enforcement, and misdemeanor fleeing. The court of appeals affirmed the judgment in both cases in one decision. Petitioner subsequently filed a petition for postconviction relief pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1. The trial court denied relief in each case. Petitioner filed a motion for belated appeal concerning the order in the first case. The Supreme Court treated the motion as motion for rule on clerk and denied the motion because Petitioner failed to perfect his appeal in accordance with the prevailing rules of procedure and failed to state good cause for failure to comply with the procedural rules.
