Description

Michael D. Rodgers, Sr. appeals a summary judgment that dismissed his legal malpractice claim against his former court-appointed lawyer, Kenneth Weatherspoon. In five issues, Rodgers claims that summary judgment should not have been granted because (1) Weatherspoon did not establish that Rodgers could not prove one or more of the elements of his claim as a matter of law, and (2) genuine issues of material fact precluded summary judgment. Because Weatherspoon disproved proximate causation as a matter of law, we hold that Weatherspoon was entitled to summary judgment. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
