ARK. ] 761 [1] Appellant Hooker is pursuing two related appeals in the appellate courts: (1) Hooker v. Producers Tractor Co., et al., Supreme Court No. 96-851; and (2) Hooker v. Producers Tractor Co., et al., Court of Appeals No. 96-1069. 1 On October 2, 1996, Hooker petitioned to have John Deere Credit added to his certificate of service in case number 96-851. The petition was granted. The Supreme Court Clerk's office named this petition as a motion to consolidate the two appeals and advised Hooker that the motion had been granted. Consolidating the two appeals was incorrect. We void the consolidation order. [2] On November 4, 1996, we dismissed Hooker's appeal in case number 96-851. Thus, his petition to add John Deere Credit to the certificate of service in that appeal is moot. The appeal in the Court of Appeals (number 96-1069) appears to be pending and was not dismissed by this court's action on November 4, 1996. NEWBERN, J., not participating.
