MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

VanARTSDALEN, District Judge.

Presently before the court are plaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment and defendants’ cross motion for complete summary judgment. Many factual contentions are not disputed, but others will require a fact finder’s determination. The procedural posture of the case, however, permits clarification of some of the prevalent legal issues at this stage of the litigation thereby establishing an appropriate foundation for the ultimate disposition of the controversy. Rule 56(d), Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
