Ex parte Watters

Richard L. Watters petitions this Court for a writ of mandamus directing the Mobile Circuit Court to vacate its order denying his motion for a summary judgment as to count one of an amended complaint filed by Michael J. Gamble, in Gamble’s capacity as administrator of the Estate of Barbara Ruth Findley Long (“Long”), deceased; count one asserts a legal-malpractice claim against Watters under the Alabama Legal Services Liability Act, Ala.
