In the Court of Appeals of Georgia A20A1188. JUNIOR v. GRAHAM.

DOYLE, Presiding Judge.

In Junior v. Graham,1 this Court affirmed the trial court’s denial of the

appellant’s motion for attorney fees under OCGA § 9-11-68. The appellant appealed

the decision to the Supreme Court of Georgia, which reversed our judgment and

remanded the case to this Court “with direction to remand the case to the trial court

for reconsideration of [the appellant’s] motion for attorney fees and expenses under

OCGA § 9-11-68 (b) (2) consistent with this opinion.”2 We therefore vacate our

earlier opinion and adopt the Supreme Court’s opinion as our own.

1 357 Ga. App. 815 (849 SE2d 536) (2020). 2 Junior v. Graham, 313 Ga. 420, 429 (2) (c) (870 SE2d 378) (2022). Judgment reversed and case remanded with direction. McFadden, P. J., and

Hodges, J., concur.
