1Opinion of the Court

LEADBETTER, Judge.

John T. Tomaskevitch appeals from an order of the Court of Common Pleas of Lacka-wanna County granting summary judgment in favor of Specialty Records Corporation (Specialty Records) in a civil action for malicious prosecution. We affirm.

When reviewing an order granting summary judgment, we must examine the record in the light most favorable to the non-moving party, and all doubts as to the existence of a genuine issue of material fact must be resolved against the moving party. Ertel v. Patriot-News Co., 544 Pa. 93, 98-99, 674 A.2d 1038, 1041 (1996).
