Docket No. 280241.

761 N.W.2d 826 (2009)

282 Mich. App. 110

AVINK v. SMG.

Court of Appeals of Michigan.

Decided January 20, 2009, at 9:00 a.m.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Smith Haughey Rice & Roegge (by Jon D. Vander Ploeg and Marilyn S. Nickell Tyree), Grand Rapids, for SMG.

Plunkett Cooney (by Christine D. Oldani, Detroit, and Mark H. Verwys), Grand Rapids, for Overhead Door Company of Grand Rapids.

Before: BECKERING, P.J., and WHITBECK and M.J. KELLY, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

Defendant/cross-plaintiff SMG appeals by leave granted the trial court's ruling that the Plunkett & Cooney law firm's representation of SMG in an unrelated matter did not create a conflict of interest that precluded it from representing defendant/cross-defendant Overhead Door Company of Grand Rapids in this matter. This ruling allowed Plunkett & Cooney to continue as counsel for Overhead Door in this matter. We reverse.
