An attorney was appointed by a judge to divide and sell property that had been jointly held

Question:

An attorney was appointed by a judge to divide and sell property that had been jointly held by a couple that split up and could not agree on how to handle the property. One of the property owners thought the attorney made mistakes in selling the property and sued him. The attorney defended that he was entitled to judicial immunity and could not be sued as he was acting on behalf of the court. Is that right?
