1Opinion of the Court
ON MOTION TO DISMISS
2Per curiam
We are confronted here with procedural problems. The trial court entered final judgment on March 28. A timely motion for new trial was filed and denied by order entered May 17. Defendants filed their notice of appeal on May 19, but neglected to file assignments of error and directions to the clerk within the time provided by the rule. Appellee-plaintiff moved to dismiss the appeal on the grounds of these failures. In the interim appellant filed an amended notice of appeal. The original notice of appeal and the amended notice of appeal are identical in legal effect.
