Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Kincaid, Horne & Trumbo, Fayetteville, for appellant.

Wyman R. Wade, Jr., Fort Smith, for appellee.


HOLT, Chief Justice.

The issue in this appeal is whether the trial court erred in holding that appellant Clarence Toran is precluded by the doctrine of res judicata from litigating certain issues and claims made below against the appellee, Provident Life & Accident Insurance Company (Provident). We find that the trial court's decision was wrong. Accordingly, we reverse its judgment and remand the case for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
