___________________________________________________________________________

CRAWFORD, J.

       This appeal involves a suit by a party to a previous divorce case against the other party’s

attorney for actions taken by the attorney in that proceeding. Plaintiff, John Alan Du Ban, Sr.,

appeals the order of the trial court granting summary judgment to defendant, Gary Wilkinson,

his ex-wife’s attorney.

       From our review of the entire record in this case, we conclude that this is a case that is

proper for disposition pursuant to Rule 10(a), Rules of the Court of Appeals.

       IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the order of the trial court is affirmed in

accordance with Court of Appeals Rule 10(a). Costs of appeal are assessed against the appellant

for which execution may issue, if necessary.

                                                      _________________________________
                                                      W. FRANK CRAWFORD,


       1
         Rule 10 (Court of Appeals). Affirmance Without Opinion. The Court, with the
concurrence of all judges participating in the case, may affirm the action of the trial court by
order without rendering a formal opinion when an opinion would have no precedential value
and one or more of the following circumstances exist and are dispositive of the appeal:

               (1) the Court concurs in the facts as found or as found by
               necessary implication by the trial court.

               (2) there is material evidence to support the verdict of the jury.

               (3) no reversible error of law appears.

  Such cases may be affirmed as follows: “Affirmed in accordance with Court of Appeals
Rule 10(a).”
