The defendant Sandhu brought a motion for summary judgment to dismiss the action against her, arguing that a settlement agreement had resolved the dispute.
The plaintiff Zaib opposed, alleging her signature on the agreement was forged.
The court ruled the defendant's expert handwriting report inadmissible because it was presented as an exhibit to a legal assistant's affidavit, preventing cross-examination of the expert.
Given the conflicting evidence regarding the agreement's authenticity and numerous inconsistencies in the defendant's discovery testimony, the court found that credibility was a genuine issue requiring a trial.
The motion for summary judgment was dismissed.
