DOSTER v. GEORGIA FARM BUREAU MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY.

Opinion:
Per curiam.
We granted certiorari to review the interpretation and application of OCGA § 33-34-5(c) (Code Ann. § 56-3404b) by the Court of Appeals in this case. Doster v. Ga. Farm Bureau Mut. Ins. Co., 167 Ga. App. 527 (307 SE2d 34) (1983). Reviewing the written offer to purchase optional coverage mailed by the insurer and completed and returned by the insured we find that the documents meet the requirements of OCGA § 33-34-5(c) (Code Ann. § 56-3404b) as defined by this court in Wiard v. Phoenix Ins. Co., 251 Ga. 698 (310 SE2d 221) (1983), and Stafford v. Allstate Ins. Co., 252 Ga. 38 (— SE2d —) (1984).

Donald W. Huskins, for appellant.
