The $^{15}$O($\alpha$,$\gamma$)$^{19}$Ne reaction is responsible for breakoutfrom the hot CNO cycle in Type I x-ray bursts. Understanding the properties ofresonances between $E_x = 4$ and 5 MeV in $^{19}$Ne is crucial in thecalculation of this reaction rate. The spins and parities of these states arewell known, with the exception of the 4.14- and 4.20-MeV states, which haveadopted spin-parities of 9/2$^-$ and 7/2$^-$, respectively. Gamma-raytransitions from these states were studied using triton-$\gamma$-$\gamma$coincidences from the $^{19}$F($^{3}$He,$t\gamma$)$^{19}$Ne reaction measuredwith GODDESS (Gammasphere ORRUBA Dual Detectors for Experimental StructureStudies) at Argonne National Laboratory. The observed transitions from the4.14- and 4.20-MeV states provide strong evidence that the $J^\pi$ values areactually 7/2$^-$ and 9/2$^-$, respectively. These assignments are consistentwith the values in the $^{19}$F mirror nucleus and in contrast to previouslyaccepted assignments.
