Description
Defendant appeals by leave granted from an October 13, 1988, order of the Oakland Circuit Court denying her application for leave to appeal from two orders of the district court which denied her motions for summary Disposition. Defendant, an attorney, has been sued in connection with her representation of plaintiffs' son in certain criminal matters, and claims that the courts below erred in failing to find the suit barred by the two-year statute of limitations for legal malpractice. Defendant also claims that the lower courts erred in granting summary Disposition because plaintiffs do not have standing, since they are not her clients, and there is no genuine issue of material fact. We find that the present action is barred by the two-year statute of limitations for legal malpractice and reverse. In December of 1984, plaintiffs' son was arrested and charged with committing numerous felonies. In March of 1985, plaintiffs hired defendant to represent their son and paid her a $5,000 retainer. In a letter dated April 16, 1985, defendant informed the son's court-appointed counsel that she had been retained, and requested his consent to a substitution of attorneys. Unbeknownst to defendant, a pretrial conference in the criminal case was scheduled for June 6, 1985. Because defendant was not the attorney of record on the case until the next day, notice of the pretrial conference was sent to the son's court-appointed counsel, and defendant never received it. As a result, defendant missed the pretrial conference. Shortly thereafter, plaintiffs' son fired defendant and hired another attorney.
