1Opinion of the Court
*430LACY, Justice.
The trial court granted Vivian and Charles Adu-Gyamfi a non-suit in a proceeding in which their motion for judgment was signed by an attorney whose license to practice law in the Commonwealth had been administratively suspended by the Virginia State Bar. We will reverse the judgment of the trial court because an attorney whose license has been administratively suspended is not authorized to practice law and, thus, any pleadings filed by such attorney are invalid.
