OPINION
VAIDIK, Judge.
Case Summary
Bonita Hilliard appeals the trial court’s decision to grant summary judgment in favor of Timothy Jacobs in this attempted second lawsuit over the disposition of life insurance policy proceeds. We find that res judicata applies since the issues have already been decided adversely to Hilliard. We also find Hilliard’s due process and fundamental fairness concerns to be without merit. Finding no error in the trial court’s ruling, we affirm the granting of summary judgment in favor of Jacobs.
