DISSENTING STATEMENT BY
ORIE MELVIN, J.:
¶ 1 I respectfully dissent. “[A] trial court’s order on summary judgment will only be reversed where the court committed an error of law or clearly abused its discretion.” Continental Insurance Co. v. Schneider, 582 Pa. 591, 600-01, 873 A.2d 1286, 1292 (2005). Based upon a careful review of the record including Appellant’s deposition, I agree with the thorough and well-reasoned opinion of the trial court finding no genuine issue of fact exists and concluding that Appellant voluntarily and knowingly assumed the risk of the injury he sustained. See Trial Court Opinion, 11/4/03, at 10-16. Accordingly, I would affirm the order granting summary judgment in favor of Appellees.
