Williams v. Precision Coil, Inc

In Williams v. Precision Coil, Inc., 194 W.Va. 52, 459 S.E.2d 329 (1995), Justice Cleckley noted: "This Court will reverse summary judgment if we find, after reviewing the entire record, a genuine issue of material facts exists or if the moving party is not entitled to judgment as a matter of law.

Id.
