PITTMAN, Judge.
This court, on February 27, 2015, issued an opinion noting that the prior judgment of this court, which had affirmed the judgment of the Walker Circuit Court, had been reversed, and the cause remanded, by our supreme court in Ex parte O.S., [Ms. 1121134, June 20, 2014] 205 So.3d 1233 (Ala.2014); we therefore reversed the judgment of the Walker Circuit Court and remanded the cause for the entry of a judgment dismissing, for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction, an action involving a claim brought by E.S. ("the wife") against O.S. and J.A.S. ("the grandparents") seeking to set aside a judgment of the Walker Probate Court allowing the grandparents to adopt the wife's child, B.T.S ("the child"). Our supreme court has since reversed this court's February 27, 2015, judgment. Ex parte E.S., [Ms. 1140889, Oct. 30, 2015] 205 So.3d 1245 (Ala.2015). In compliance with the October 30, 2015, decision of our supreme court, we vacate our February 27, 2015, judgment "insofar as it directed the [Walker Circuit Court] to dismiss the wife's action for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction," and we now remand
VACATED IN PART; REVERSED AND REMANDED WITH INSTRUCTIONS.

THOMPSON, P.J., concurs specially.
THOMPSON, Presiding Judge, concurring specially.
I agree that this court must comply with our supreme court's mandate to order the circuit court to transfer this matter to the probate court. However, I agree with Justice Shaw's writing in Ex parte E.S., [Ms. 1140889, Oct. 30, 2015] 205 So.3d 1245 (Ala.2015). I am not convinced that a vertical transfer, rather than a transfer between divisions of the circuit court, was intended as the purpose of § 12-11-11, Ala.Code 1975, or that that statute should be interpreted as providing for such a transfer. I hope that our supreme court will reconsider its position if the opportunity to do so arises in future.
