PATTERSON et al. v. KEVON, LLC.
    A17A0399
    Court of Appeals of Georgia.
    September 28, 2018
    Blakely Holloway Frye, Travis Martin Cashbaugh, Atlanta, for Appellant.
    Pamela Newsom Lee, for Appellee.
   Bethel, Judge.

In Patterson v. Kevon, LLC , 342 Ga. App. 256, 802 S.E.2d 442 (2017), this Court affirmed the trial court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the defendant, Kevon, LLC, as to the issue of proximate cause on negligence claims brought by the plaintiffs. As this was the only issue reached by the trial court in considering the defendant's summary judgment motion, we did not consider whether the plaintiffs had brought forth evidence to establish the other elements of their claims.

The Supreme Court of Georgia granted certiorari and reversed our decision. See Patterson v. Kevon, LLC , No. S17G1957, 2018 WL 3965745, 818 S.E.2d 575 (Ga. Aug. 20, 2018). We therefore vacate our previous opinion, adopt the decision of the Supreme Court as our own, and reverse the judgment below.

Judgment reversed.

Barnes, P.J., Miller, P.J., Doyle, P.J., McFadden, P.J., and McMillian, Mercier, Reese, and Gobeil, JJ., concur.
