Heading: Motion to Amend the Complaint

Text: ¶ 34 Sunset Point additionally appeals from that portion of the District Court's order denying Sunset Point's motion to amend the complaint to add Perma Chink Systems, Inc., as a defendant in this case. The court denied Sunset Point's motion to amend the complaint, concluding that to allow the amendment at such a late date would be prejudicial to the defendant. ¶ 35 In light of our conclusion that Sunset Point has, in any event, failed to demonstrate the presence of a genuine issue of material fact in support of any of the claims contained in its complaint, whether Stuc-O-Flex, Inc., or Perma-Chink Systems, Inc., is the appropriate defendant in this case is immaterial. Accordingly, we need not address the propriety of the District Court's decision denying Sunset Point's motion to amend the complaint. HUNT, GRAY, LEAPHART and TRIEWEILER, JJ., concur.
