1Opinion of the CourtGerber, J.
The plaintiff appeals: (1) the circuit court’s July 17, 2006 “Directions to the Clerk” to close the file because of the lack of record activity; and (2) the circuit court’s October 25, 2010 order granting the defendant’s motion to dismiss for failure to prosecute. The plaintiff argues that the court entered the directions and the order contrary to Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.420(e), as amended effective January 1, 2006. In re Amendments to the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure (Two Year Cycle), 917 So.2d 176, 176 (Fla.2005). We agree and reverse both the directions and the order.
