Webster v. Martin Memorial Medical Center, Inc.

We reverse the order granting the defendant hospital’s motion for summary judgment in a medical malpractice action. According to the Florida Supreme Court,

A summary judgment is properly rendered only upon showing a complete absence of any genuine issue of material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.' The proof must be such as to overcome all reasonable inferences in favor of the party opposing summary judgment.
