App. 588, 468 S.E.2d 407 (1996), reversing summary judgment entered on 7 November 1994 by Caldwell, J., at the'17 October 1994 Session of Superior Court, Mecklenburg County, and remanding the case for a trial on the merits. Heard in the Supreme Court 14 November 1996.

   PER CURIAM.

The Court agrees with the holding of the opinion of the Court of Appeals that the judgment of the trial court should be reversed and the cause remanded for trial on the merits. However, we specifically disavow the language in the Court of Appeals’ opinion holding that no genuine issue of material fact exists as to the actual ownership of the vehicle.

AFFIRMED.
