In Dowling v. Atlanta City School Dist., 216 Ga. App. 688 ( 455 S.E.2d 399) (1995), we reversed the trial court's dismissal of plaintiff's claims for damages and attorney fees under 42 USCA §§ 1983 and 1988. The Supreme Court granted certiorari and reversed our decision in Atlanta City School Dist. v. Dowling, 266 Ga. 217 ( 466 S.E.2d 588) (1996). Accordingly, our judgment in this case is vacated and the judgment of the Supreme Court is made the judgment of this court.

Judgment affirmed. Beasley, C. J., McMurray, P. J., Birdsong, P. J., Andrews, Johnson, Blackburn, Smith and Ruffin, JJ., concur.

POPE, Presiding Judge.
