Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
MCFADDEN, Judge.

Summary judgment is proper when there is no genuine issue of material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Insurance in Georgia is a matter of contract, and we have long held that contract disputes are well suited for adjudication by summary judgment because *548construction of a contract is ordinarily a matter of law for the court.
