1Opinion of the Court
*617TERRY, Associate Judge:
The trial court dismissed appellant’s action for fraudulent misrepresentation and breach of contract on the ground of res judicata. On appeal he contends that the court erred in granting appellees’ motion to dismiss because res judicata does not apply to claims that were previously dismissed without prejudice. Given the particular and somewhat unusual facts of this cáse, we affirm.
