1Opinion of the Court

OWEN, Judge.

Appellant seeks review of his conviction for the crime of sodomy and his sentence of ten years imprisonment in the state prison.

Appellant filed five assignments of error, the first four of which were addressed to the verdict. For such benefit as it may be to members of the bar engaged in appellate practice, we invite attention to the fact that assignments of error are properly used to designate identified judicial acts which should be stated as they occurred. Rule 3.5(c) F.A.R., 32 F.S.A.; Maloy, Florida Appellate Practice and Procedure, §§ 26.06 and 39.18.
