STEPHENS, Chief Justice,
concurring.
The majority has affirmed the final order of the trial court which dismissed the Third-Party Complaint against Hildesheim “without prejudice, with leave to refile provide^] all Mr. Hildesheim’s costs and expenses are paid as a condition to refile.”
While I believe the Court of Appeals erred for the reasons articulated in the majority opinion, I would remand to the trial court and direct that the conditions on the dismissal be removed. I find no authority under CR 41.01 nor under case law which permits placing such conditions on the dismissal of a Third-Party Complaint.
