KAUGER, Justice,
concurring:
Although I concur with the majority, there are other serious defects concerning the December 6, 1993 order sheet. Effective October 1,1993,12 O.S.1993 § 696.2 mandated, as a jurisdictional perquisite, that a judgment or appealable order be in the form required by 12 O.S.Supp. § 696.3(A). All judgments, decrees and appealable orders which are filed with the clerk of the court must contain:
1. A caption setting forth the name of the court, the names and designation of the parties, the file number of the case and the title of the instrument;
2. A statement of the disposition of the action, proceeding or motion, including a statement of the relief awarded to a party or parties and the liabilities and obligations imposed on the other party or parties;
3. The signature and title of the court; and
4. Any other matter approved by the court.
The order does not comply with § 696.-3(A). The caption contains the name of the court and the names of two of the parties, but not the name of a third party, Dr. Paul Inbody. Nor is there a designation of the parties as required by § 696.3(A)(1). This order is not in the form required of a judgment or appealable order.
