SILER et al. v. BLOCK et al.

BENHAM, Justice.

We granted certiorari to the Court of Appeals to determine whether OCGA § 9-3-73 (c), the medical malpractice statute of repose, bars the re-filing of this action pursuant to OCGA § 9-2-61 within six months following a voluntary dismissal. This court recently answered that question adversely to appellant in Wright v. Robinson, 262 Ga. 844 ( 426 S.E.2d 870) (1993). As the decision in Wright controls herein, we affirm the judgment of the Court of Appeals, which affirmed the trial court's grant of summary judgment to appellees/defendants.

Judgment affirmed. All the Justices concur.

BENHAM, Justice.

DECIDED MAY 3, 1993 — RECONSIDERATIONS DENIED JUNE 18, 1993 AND JULY 15, 1993.
