19 June order on 19 July 2012. II. Appellate Jurisdiction At oral argument, petitioner contended that we should dismiss the State’s appeal because in its 19 July 2012 notice of appeal it only appealed from the full order entered 19 June 2012 and not from the form order entered 7 June 2012. It is clear from the trial court’s rendition of its ruling at the hearing that the court would enter the form order but that it would also enter another order that more fully and accurately stated its findings and conclusions. The trial court did so on 19 July 2012. Effectively, this order amended the trial court’s prior order. Because the State timely appealed from the amended order, we have jurisdiction to hear this appeal. Cohen v. McLawhorn, 208 N.C. App. 492, 497, 704 S.E.2d 519, 523-24 (2010) (<HOLDING>). III. Preservation The State argues on appeal
holding appeal from an order dismissing action without prejudice was properly before this court holding that court lacked jurisdiction on appeal from injunction because the order was simply an interpretation of an earlier order holding that mothers failure to appeal prior contempt order precluded her challenge to prior order in appeal from later order entered based upon prior contempt order holding that appellant complied with rule 3as requirement to designate the judgment or order appealed where it was clear from the face of the notice of appeal which judgment appellant sought to appeal holding that the appeal was properly before the court where the appellant appealed from an order amending a prior order without appealing from the prior order
