Opinion
A97A2367.
DECIDED FEBRUARY 22, 1999.
Tortious interference with business relations. Walker Superior Court. Before Judge Wood.
Robert D. Jones, for appellant.
Clifton, Sanders Smith, Cecil L. Clifton, Jr, for appellee.
In Strahley v. Pruitt Corp., 231 Ga. App. 502 ( 498 S.E.2d 78) (1998), we reversed the grant of summary judgment to Pruitt Corporation (Pruitt) on Strahley's interference with a contract claim and affirmed the grant of summary judgment to Pruitt on Strahley's claim of interference with business relations. In Pruitt Corp. v. Strahley, 270 Ga. 430 ( 510 S.E.2d 821) (1999), the Supreme Court reversed our decision as to Strahley's tortious interference with the contract claim. Accordingly, Division 1 of our prior opinion, dealing with the claim of tortious interference with a contract, is vacated and the judgment of the Supreme Court is made the judgment of this Court. Division 2 of our prior opinion, which affirmed the grant of summary judgment to Pruitt on Strahley's claim of interference with business relations, was not affected by the Supreme Court's decision and, therefore, stands.
Judgment affirmed. Eldridge and Barnes, JJ., concur.
