PHILLIPS, Chief Judge
(concurring in the result).
The record before the District Court consisted of the pleadings, motions for and in opposition to summary judgment and affidavits from all parties. Upon consideration of this material, we can not say “that there is no genuine issue of material fact and that the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” See Rule 56(c), Fed.R.Civ.P.
I concur in the conclusion that there are genuine issues of material fact requiring reversal of the summary judgment. -Material facts concerning events subsequent to Day’s release on bond are in dispute. These facts are relevant to the issue of whether the discharge of Day was unlawful and whether the Union breached its duty of fair representation. I therefore agree that the order granting summary judgment be vacated and the case remanded to the District Court for a trial on the merits.
ORDER DENYING PETITIONS FOR REHEARING
The petitions for rehearing having come on to be heard, upon due consideration, it is ordered that the petitions be, and are hereby denied.
All facts in the case are in dispute and will be determined on remand.
Chief Judge PHILLIPS is of the opinion that the petitions for rehearing should be granted; that the majority and concurring opinions of this Court should be withdrawn; that the order granting summary judgment should be vacated and the case remanded to the District Court for trial on the merits.
