In that order we also vacated that portion of our order of June 30, 2000, directing court reporter Joe D'Amato to file a certified copy of the transcript for July 14, 1999, because no trial was held on that date.

| 06/19/2001 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order. We grant Mr. Gowen's motion of May 14, 2001, for an extension of time to pay the sanction. Mr. Gowen shall have 10 days from the date of this order to pay the five hundred dollar sanction. On May 14, 2001, appellant filed a motion for an extension of time to file the appendix and submitted the appendix. Because the appendix was timely submitted, it was filed upon receipt.
