1Opinion of the Court

BARNES, J„

for the Court:

¶ 1. Norma Springfield filed a complaint in the Monroe County Circuit Court for malicious prosecution against her former employer, Members 1st Community Federal Credit Union’s (Members 1st) and others, after embezzlement charges were brought against her and later dismissed. The trial court granted the defendants’ second motion to dismiss, finding that Norma failed to establish “want of probable cause.” Norma now appeals. Finding error with the trial court’s dismissal, we reverse and remand for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
