Summary

The court held that the appellees waived any objection based on the absence of formal substitution of Ronnie as special personal representative and that the defect did not deprive the appellate court of jurisdiction. It further held that Bobby's appointment was not void ab initio and that the complaints he filed while appointed remained valid. The court reversed and remanded without reaching the alternative statute-of-limitations issue.
