An amended notice of appeal shall be limited to the correction of clerical errors or omissions in the original notice of appeal. It may not be used for the purpose of appealing an order or judgment entered subsequent to the filing of the original notice of appeal, except when a subsequent order or judgment amends the order or judgment from which the appeal was initially taken. The amended notice shall be served and filed pursuant to the provisions of § 15-26A-4, provided, however, that no filing fees need be paid and no docketing statement need be filed.

The service and filing of an amended notice of appeal shall not serve to extend the time within which to accomplish the applicable appellate procedure, the time therefor to be computed as hereafter provided from the dates of service or filing of the original notice of appeal.
