Partial Summary Judgment

Partial summary judgment is one of the least used items in family law.  Lots of times there are so many issues of genuine fact, that it is impossible to actually do summary judgment.  However, on certain limited issues, it can be helpful.  Some examples are on cases of paternity in establishing that one party is the parent of the child or on cases of whether a prenuptial agreement is valid.  This is one area I think needs to be examined more in narrowing down issues for trial.
