I am the plaintiff can a summary judgment be appealed

Yes! It is well settled that the party moving for summary judgment carries the burden of establishing that there is no issue as to any material fact and that he is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Avco Fin. Servs. Of Indianapolis, Inc. v. Metro Holding Co., 563 N.E.2d 1323, 1326 (Ind. Ct. App. 1990). The moving party must fulfill these two requirements before any burden shifts to the nonmovant. Id. The nonmovant may rest upon his pleadings until the moving party establishes no genuine factual issue exists.

If the Defendant follows the Rules of Appellate Procedure and can establish such, the Judgment can be reversed and remanded.

PS--Let us know how that turned out.

Summary judgment is a final judgment that disposes of an entire case or specific issues within a case without a trial. It can be appealed, but if no appeal is filed, the decision becomes final.

How enforceable is a summary judgment?

A summary judgment is just as enforceable as any other judgment. The only difference between a summary judgment and a judgment after a trial is that a summary judgment is granted when the court believes that a trial is unnecessary. A trial would be unnecessary if the facts of the case are either undisputed or conclusively established. Once that is shown, then the court can grant a summary judgment after a proper motion is filed.

What do you do after a summary judgment has been granted against you?

Recourse? What do you mean by "recourse"? Do you mean what are your options?One option is to do nothing and get a summary judgment against you by default. Not a wise move unless you have no defense to a motion for summary judgment and the moving party does not seek extreme measure from you.You should file a motion in opposition to the motion for summary judgment, putting forth the facts and the law as to why the moving party is not entitled to the granting of a motion for summary judgment.A motion for summary judgment is required to clearly show that given the undisputed facts in the case (facts you have admitted to as being true), the petitioner is entitled to a certain remedy in the form of judgment as a matter of law.So, dispute the facts necessary for them to get summary judgment and dispute the application of the law that they reference as most applicable and appropriate in your case. If you successfully dispute the facts required to get summary judgment and/or you dispute the application of the law that they reference, then their motion for summary judgment will likely fail.AnswerFortunately for you, all reasonable inferences the court must make will be decided in favor of the non-moving party (you). Keep in mind that summary judgment cannot be obtained or defeated by speculation or conjecture alone; there must be specific, concrete facts that establish the claim. If you believe that you are entitled to summary judgment, you may file a cross motion for summary judgment, which details why you are entitled to a summary judgment against the other party. In that case, you will be held to the same standard of proof as the person who is requesting summary judgment against you.


What is a cross-motion for summary judgment?

A cross-motion for summary judgment is a legal document filed by the opposing party in response to the initial motion for summary judgment.

It allows both parties to seek a final judgment on the legal issues without the need for a trial.

Plays that cannot be appealed in softball?

Plays that cannot be appealed are judgment calls. If there is a question about rule interpretation, then the coach should calmly approach the umpire and talk to him about it. Judgment calls are irreversible, even if a bad call was made and it is apparent.
