PER CURIAM.
By letter to this Court dated December 13,1988, the Appellate Rules Committee of the Florida Bar requests an addition to our opinion, In re The Florida Bar Rules of Appellate Procedure, 529 So.2d 687 (Fla.1988). We treat the letter as a petition for clarification and exercise jurisdiction pursuant to article V, section 2(a), Florida Constitution.
The clarification consists of the addition of one page of material mistakenly omitted from the petition originally filed with this Court by the Appellate Rules Committee. We grant the petition, withdraw the appendix to our previous opinion and adopt the attached appendix as amendments to the Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure.
The only changes between the attached appendix and the one adopted by our prior opinion are in the addition of Rules 9.900(g)(6) and (7), the deletion of the committee note accompanying Rule 9.900(g) and the substitution of a new committee note in its place. Deletions are indicated by the use of struck-through type. New language is indicated by underscoring. All rules and statutes in conflict with the following rules are hereby superseded as of the effective date of these rules. These amendments shall become effective January 1, 1989, at 12:01 a.m.
It is so ordered.
EHRLICH, C.J., and McDONALD, SHAW, BARKETT, GRIMES and KOGAN, JJ., concur.
