Description

This is a legal malpractice action. When Carl Burns was sued by the Arkansas Casket Company, he hired Richard Wardroup to represent him as his attorney. Although Burns received a favorable jury verdict, the trial court rendered judgment non obstante veredicto in favor of the Arkansas Casket Company. The judgment was not appealed. Burns then sued Wardroup, alleging that Wardroup was negligent in failing to oppose Arkansas Caskets j.n.o.v. motion and in failing to appeal. Burns later amended his pleadings to add Wardroups former law partner, Larriet Thomas, as a defendant. Thomas moved for summary judgment on the ground that Burns action was barred by the two-year statute of limitations. After severing out the claim against Wardroup, the trial court granted summary judgment in favor of Thomas; the court of appeals affirmed. We reverse the judgment of the court of appeals and remand the cause to the trial court.
