Workers' compensation. Murray Superior Court. Before Judge Boyett.

Bennett Hamilton, Rodney H. Bennett, for appellant.

Drew, Eckl Farnham, John C. Bruffey, Jr., Hall, Booth, Smith Slover, Steven D. Prelutsky, for appellee.

BEASLEY, Judge.

In Thomas v. Diamond Rug Carpet Mills, 226 Ga. App. 403 ( 486 S.E.2d 664) (1997), we reversed the superior court's affirmance of the denial of Thomas' claim for workers' compensation benefits. The Supreme Court of Georgia granted certiorari and reversed in Ga. Self-Insurers Guaranty Trust Fund v. Thomas, 269 Ga. 560 ( 501 S.E.2d 818) (1998). Accordingly, our judgment in this case is vacated, and the judgment of the Supreme Court is made the judgment of this Court.

Judgment affirmed. McMurray, P.J., and Smith, J., concur.

BEASLEY, Judge.

DECIDED SEPTEMBER 1, 1998.
