On Motion for Rehearing.
On motion for rehearing, the appellee contends that certain evidence favorable to his cause, in the form of testimony adduced at the original hearing on his motion for default judgment, was omitted from the record on appeal. The notice of appeal directs that “[t]he Clerk will please omit nothing from the record on appeal.” Pursuant to OCGA § 5-6-41 (f), if either party contends that the record transmitted to this court contains material misstatements or omissions, his remedy is to apply to the trial court for the correction of the error — if necessary by the certification and transmittal of a supplemental record to this court. This procedure was not followed in the present case; and, consequently, we must assume that the record before us is both correct and complete. See Boats For Sail, Inc. v. Sears, 158 Ga. App. 74 (1) (279 SE2d 314) (1981).
