v.
Ruth Lavern CORBIN, Appellee.
No. 07-144.
Supreme Court of Arkansas.

MOTION FOR RULE ON THE CLERK.
PER CURIAM.
Appellant James Studie filed a motion for rule on clerk seeking an order of this court directing the Arkansas Supreme Court Clerk to accept his record for filing. Appellant attempted to file his record and transcript on February 5, 2006, under an extension of time granted by the circuit court, pursuant to Ark. R.App. P.-Civ. 5(b), on November 6,
Arkansas Rules of Appellate Procedure  Civil 5(b)(1)(C) provides in part:
(b) Extension of time.

(1) If any party has designated stenographically reported material for inclusion in the record on appeal, the circuit court, by order entered before expiration of the period . . . may extend the time for filing the record only if it makes the following findings:
. . . .
(C) All parties have had the opportunity to be heard on the motion, either at a hearing or by responding in writing[.]
This court has made it very clear that we expect strict compliance with the requirements of Rule 5(b), and that we do not view the granting of an extension as a mere formality. See, e.g., Keesee v. Keesee, 367 Ark. 416, 240 S.W.3d 573 (2006) (per curiam); Woods v. Tapper, 367 Ark. 239, 238 S.W.3d 929 (2006) (per curiam). The order of extension in this case makes no reference to the findings of the circuit court required under Rule 5(b)(1)(C). Accordingly, we remand this matter to the circuit judge for compliance with Rule 5(b)(1)(C).
Remanded.
