## Opinion text

PRESIDING JUSTICE CAMPBELL, specially concurring:
I write separately to note that I am not in accord with the majority opinion’s discussion of Beck v. Stepp, 144 Ill. 2d 232 , 579 N.E.2d 824 (1991), and Andersen v. Resource Economics Corp., 133 Ill. 2d 342 , 549 N.E.2d 1262 (1990). However, as the majority opinion addresses the merits of the appeal, I also note my agreement with the majority’s conclusion that there are material questions of fact regarding breach of duty and proximate causation that preclude the entry of summary judgment, given the facts and circumstances in this case.
