Beasley, Judge.
Hanna brought an action against Savannah Service alleging defamation and wrongful termination of his employment on May 15, 1981. His complaint was filed on April 11, 1985. Savannah Service moved to dismiss Hanna’s complaint on the ground it was barred by the statute of limitations. Hanna asserted that he had filed a previous action within the statutory period which he had dismissed on October 11, 1984, and that the present action was a renewal brought within six months as required by OCGA § 9-2-61. After a hearing, the trial court dismissed the complaint.
