The appellant, within five days after receipt of the transcript, shall file such transcript and a copy of the notice of appeal with the clerk of the court. The notice of appeal and transcript of the record shall constitute appellant’s complaint. The complaint shall thereupon be entered on the trial calendar of the court.”; and in subsection (c), substituted “the reviewing court” for “the court” and “any further action to be taken by the Secretary of State” for “his further action”.
