JUSTICE CHAPMAN, concurring in part and dissenting in part: I concur in the result reached by the majority, but must dissent as to the paragraph beginning, “Even if the sufficiency of the allegations ***,” and ending, “Under these circumstances, we believe that the alleged acts and omissions of the attorneys are certainly imputable to Bituminous itself.” (212 Ill. App. 3d at 568.) I dissent from that portion of the opinion for two reasons: first, it is unnecessary to reach that issue since the preceding paragraphs clearly state the appropriate basis for reversal, and second, at this stage of the proceedings I do not feel that it is clear “that the acts and omissions of the attorneys are certainly imputable to Bituminous itself.” 212 Ill. App. 3d at 568.
