CHEZEM, Judge,
dissenting.
I respectfully dissent. Because Stevens did not file a motion to correct errors under Indiana Trial Rule 59 or a praccipe under Appellate Rule 2(A) within thirty (80) days of the date the trial court entered summary judgment, she forfeited her right to appeal. Specifically, the trial court entered summary judgment on June 2, 1992, but Stevens did not file a motion for relief from judgment until five months later, on November 13, 1992. The appeal should be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. CNA Insurance Companies v. Vellucci (1992), Ind.App., 596 N.E.2d 926, 928.
