Disposition
The judgment states that, for the reasons given in a separate opinion and order dated March 20, 2023, the motion for summary judgment was granted. Summary judgment is a decision entered without a trial when the court resolves the case under the applicable legal standard based on the materials before it.
The case was dismissed with prejudice, which means the judgment states that the case cannot be brought again in the same form. The judgment also states that the court certified that any appeal would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied permission to appeal without paying filing fees and closed the case.
The provided text does not include the separate opinion and order or explain the claims, arguments, or reasons supporting the summary-judgment ruling.
