Opinion

Brown, Judge.

In Ga. Ports Auth. v. Lawyer , 304 Ga. 667 , 821 S.E.2d 22 (2018) ( Lawyer II ), the Supreme Court of Georgia reversed Division 1 of this Court's opinion in Ga. Ports Auth. v. Lawyer , 342 Ga. App. 161 , 803 S.E.2d 94 (2017) ( Lawyer I ). Accordingly, we vacate only Division 1 of our prior opinion, adopt the opinion of the Supreme Court of Georgia, and reverse the trial court's denial of the Georgia Ports Authority's motion to dismiss Lawyer's claim for damages in excess of $1 million. See Lawyer II , 304 Ga. at 682 (5), 821 S.E.2d 22 .
