1Opinion of the Court

MITCHELL, Justice.

In several assignments presented to this Court for review, the plaintiff contends that the Court of Appeals erred in affirming the trial court’s dismissal of the plaintiffs complaint and summonses against an individual defendant and the defendant law firm. The plaintiff also assigns as error the holding by the Court of Appeals that the trial court should have dismissed the action because of the plaintiffs violation of Rule 8(a)(2) of the North Carolina Rules of Civil Procedure. G.S. 1A-1, Rule 8(a)(2). For reasons stated below, we reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals.
