Boro Hall Corporation v. General Motors Corporation

AUGUSTUS N. HAND, Circuit Judge.

The motion to dismiss the complaint was accompanied by an affidavit which in turn was answered by the plaintiff without raising any material issues of fact. We see no reason why the application should not be treated as one for summary judgment under Section 56 of the Rules of Civil Procedure, 28 U.S.C. A. following section 723c.
