Section 2-1005(c)'s summary judgment procedure considers whether the pleadings, depositions, and admissions show a genuine issue of material fact or a question of law.
Swain v. The City of Chicago · filed 2014-05-13(c)
Here, in arguing before the court, the City used summary judgment language, stating that there was no "genuine issue of material fact" in this case and that the issue of whether it owed a duty to plaintiff was "a question of law." See 735 ILCS 5/2-1005(c) (West 2012). The City also relied exclusively on the pleadings, depositions, and admissions on file, i.e., the evidence considered on a motion for summary judgment, since there had been no trial proceedings. Id. ... Under the ... circumstances, we agree that the language used by the City and the procedural posture of this case all support the conclusion that the City's motion was a motion to reconsider the denial of summary judgment rather than a motion for a directed finding.Read the full opinion on CourtListener →
