MB. JUSTICE CASTLES
(dissenting).
I dissent.
The facts reveal that Wardlow read the hospital’s personnel policy which stated clearly that an employee was not entitled to sick leave until six months of service as a full time employee. She did not qualify. Neither, under the personnel policy, did she establish a leave of absence and at no time did she attempt to pay a premium for the period involved. Appellant Ward-low make various allegations against the hospital, which, if proven, may have merit against the hospital, but these allegations cannot support a claim against respondent Blue Cross.
In my view, summary judgment in favor of Blue Cross was proper, and I would affirm.
