“if the movant shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“Fraud in the factum occurs when a party is tricked into signing an instrument without knowledge of its true nature or contents. Thus, to constitute fraud in the factum a misrepresentation must go to the essential character of the document signed, not merely to its terms. For example, if a person signs a contract, having been led to believe that it is only a receipt, the stage may be set for the emergence of fraud in the factum.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“Motions to alter or amend judgments are no place to start giving evidence that could have been presented earlier.. . . `Unlike the Emperor Nero, litigants cannot fiddle as Rome burns.'”
