Lumbermen’s Mutual Casualty Company, as subrogee to Jack Greene, filed suit against Pattillo Construction Company, Inc. (Pattillo) for damages to a building constructed by Pattillo for Greene. The complaint sounded in tort, warranty, and breach of contract, relying on the written agreement between Greene and Pattillo. Pattillo moved for summary judgment, asserting as a bar the six-year statute of limitation for actions arising under a written contract (OCGA § 9- 3-24). The trial court granted Pattillo’s motion and Lumbermen’s Mutual Casualty Company appeals.
