The opinion

McKAY, J.,

Dissents.

IT respectfully dissent from the majority opinion and would reverse the trial court’s granting of summary judgment in favor of the defendant. Both the trial court and the majority rely on their interpretations of certain evidence in the record. It is my belief that reasonable persons could view this evidence in different ways. Therefore, this creates a genuine issue of materi *140 al fact. As such, summary judgment is not appropriate.
