ANDREWS, Presiding Judge.

In Edwards v. Dept. of Children Youth Svcs., 271 Ga. 890 ( 525 S.E.2d 83) (2000), the Supreme Court reversed this Court's opinion in Edwards v. Dept. of Children Youth Svcs., 236 Ga. App. 696 ( 512 S.E.2d 339) (1999). Therefore, we vacate our earlier opinion, adopt the opinion of the Supreme Court as our own, and remand the case to the trial court for proceedings not inconsistent with the opinion of the Supreme Court.

Judgment reversed and case remanded. Pope, P.J., and Ruffin, J., concur.

ANDREWS, Presiding Judge.

DECIDED MARCH 1, 2000.
