Summary Judgement was requested by both parties based on the motions, briefs, video depositions and evidence attached to the briefs.
The Judge ruled on only 1 of 7 claims, the other 6 remanded to trial.
Doing something BOTH parties requested based on briefs isn't "pre-judging", especially when most of the complaints were referred to trial.
No it doesn't.
It only matters to the one claim that was decided by summary judgement based on the request of both parties.
It's not relevant to the other 6 claims that will be determined by the trial.
