State Trading Corporation v. Addis
Superior Court of Pennsylvania · Decided April 16, 1940 · Cueiam, Keller, Cunningham, Baldrige, Stadtfeld, Parker, Rhodes, Hirt
13 A.2d 116; 140 Pa. Super. 64; 1940 Pa. Super. LEXIS 411 (Atlantic Reporter, Second Series)

State Trading Corporation v. Addis

Opinion of the Court

Pee Cueiam,

This appeal is from an order refusing judgment for want of a sufficient affidavit of defense. Such an order will not be reversed unless the appellate court is free from doubt that the court below erred in refusing judgment. After reading the pleadings and considering the arguments of counsel, we cannot say that plaintiff’s right to summary judgment, on the pleadings and without trial, is sufficiently clear and free from doubt.

Following the usual course, we shall not disturb the order appealed from, nor discuss the merits or the rules of law applicable to the case until an opportunity is had to develop the facts at trial.

Appeal dismissed.
