Justice JOSEPH GORDON delivered the opinion of the court:

This is an appeal by plaintiff from an order of the circuit court vacating a previous order which had reinstated her action after it was dismissed for want of prosecution. On appeal, plaintiff contends that the court improperly vacated its decision to reinstate her case based upon unsubstantiated allegations of misconduct by her attorney. For the reasons that follow, we reverse.
