OPINION

HUSPENI, Judge.

Appeal is taken from an award of summary judgment wherein the trial court found appellants Denzer collaterally estopped from bringing suit against respondents Frisch. Appellants entered a Pi-erringer agreement with the plaintiff in a prior action which had been brought against both appellants and respondents. When appellants subsequently sued respondents for damages, the trial court found appellants had been in privity with the plaintiff during the former action and collaterally estopped appellants’ present action. We reverse and remand for trial.
