What is Plantiff's motion for summary judgment in a foreclosure case?
The Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment is asking the court to rule on all pleadings that have been filed in the case. This happens if one of the defendants has filed an response or answer. The Plaintiff will usually ask for judgment when filing a motion for summary judgment.
What do you do after a summary judgment has been granted against you?
Recourse? What do you mean by "recourse"? Do you mean what are your options?One option is to do nothing and get a summary judgment against you by default. Not a wise move unless you have no defense to a motion for summary judgment and the moving party does not seek extreme measure from you.You should file a motion in opposition to the motion for summary judgment, putting forth the facts and the law as to why the moving party is not entitled to the granting of a motion for summary judgment.A motion for summary judgment is required to clearly show that given the undisputed facts in the case (facts you have admitted to as being true), the petitioner is entitled to a certain remedy in the form of judgment as a matter of law.So, dispute the facts necessary for them to get summary judgment and dispute the application of the law that they reference as most applicable and appropriate in your case. If you successfully dispute the facts required to get summary judgment and/or you dispute the application of the law that they reference, then their motion for summary judgment will likely fail.AnswerFortunately for you, all reasonable inferences the court must make will be decided in favor of the non-moving party (you). Keep in mind that summary judgment cannot be obtained or defeated by speculation or conjecture alone; there must be specific, concrete facts that establish the claim. If you believe that you are entitled to summary judgment, you may file a cross motion for summary judgment, which details why you are entitled to a summary judgment against the other party. In that case, you will be held to the same standard of proof as the person who is requesting summary judgment against you.

A motion for summary judgment asks the judge to dismiss the claims before the court. A moving party asks the court to assume that all of the allegations made by the plaintiff are true and even if all true asks the court to rule that no valid claim has been made by the plaintiff. For example, suppose the plaintiff sues the defendant for wearing a red tie. The defendant would admit that he wore a red tie, and ask the court to make a ruling that there is no possible recovery for the plaintiff when he defendant wears a red tie.

Can someone show an example of a case where a motion for a summary judgment will be granted?
Summary judgment is granted when there is no dispute as to any of the material facts in the incident that caused the lawsuit so that, as a matter of law, one party or the other is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. In a suit on a credit card bill, if the defendant does not dispute that he is responsible for the full amount claimed by the credit card company, but just won't pay it, the plaintiff is entitled to summary judgment without having to go to trial because the defendant admits the debt. There is no genuine issue of material fact that has to be resolved by trial. Now if the defendant denies that he is responsible for all or part of the debt (for instance if the card had been stolen and charges were billed for purchases not made by the defendant but the credit card company does not believe him) there is an issue of material fact that has to be determined at a trial. The issue is did the defendant actually make the charges or not. Summary judgment cannot be granted as long as there is a genuine issue.

A summary judgment is just as enforceable as any other judgment. The only difference between a summary judgment and a judgment after a trial is that a summary judgment is granted when the court believes that a trial is unnecessary. A trial would be unnecessary if the facts of the case are either undisputed or conclusively established. Once that is shown, then the court can grant a summary judgment after a proper motion is filed.
What is a cross-motion for summary judgment?
A cross-motion for summary judgment is a legal document filed by the opposing party in response to the initial motion for summary judgment.

It allows both parties to seek a final judgment on the legal issues without the need for a trial.
