Rodgetta Colvin Jett N/k/a Octavia R. Cantelow-Jett v. James M. Wooten and the Law Offices of James M. Wooten, P.c.

Summary

The court held that Jett's legal-malpractice action was not time-barred because the fraudulent-concealment savings provision applied to toll the limitations period. Jett presented evidence that her attorney misled her into believing that lawsuits had been filed on her behalf, and she filed suit within two years after discovering that no lawsuits had been initiated. The summary judgment was therefore reversed and the case remanded. No separate opinions were filed.
