The opinion

I concur in the result reached. I do not believe that there was a contract, express or implied, shown by the evidence in this case, between the plaintiff and the county school board. Any duty owed by the school board to the plaintiff, and any breach of that duty, would have been tortious only. See Lorence v. Hospital Board , 294 Ala. 614 , 320 So.2d 631 (1975).
