A party who is making a motion for summary judgment is asserting that:

the factual disputes are relatively simple and straightforward such that a full$-$detailed judgment is not necessary in the case

a jury is not needed in deciding the case because there are no relevant facts that are in dispute

the case can be decided solely on the information contained in the complaint and the answer

most of the factual evidence is in its favor, so that the judge, rather than a jury, should decide the factual disputes
