William H. Stitts v. Clifford K. McGown, Jr.

The issue presented in this case is whether the trial court erred in dismissing with prejudice, on its own motion, a lawsuit alleging legal malpractice in which a summons was issued but never served on the defendant, and not reissued within one year. After careful review, we hold that the trial court did not err in dismissing the complaint. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
