A17A0214 May 12, 2017 Affirmed

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The Georgia Court of Appeals held that an expert affidavit was insufficient because it failed to state at least one specific negligent act or omission with factual basis. The court affirmed the dismissal of Ziglar's complaint for lack of a sufficient Section 9-11-9.1 affidavit, finding his claims fell within professional negligence.
