Ruling:
When the pleadings on file show that there are no genuine issues of
fact to be tried, the Rules of Court allow a party to obtain immediate relief
by way of summary judgment, that is, when the facts are not in dispute, the
court is allowed to decide the case summarily by applying the law to the
material facts. A "genuine issue" is such issue of fact which requires the
presentation of evidence as distinguished from a sham, fictitious, contrived
or false claim.
