OPINION

HENRY, Justice.

This civil action, arising under the Tennessee Open Meetings Act, commonly known as the "Sunshine Law", as incorporated in Sec. 8-4401, et seq., T.C.A., devolves into a consideration and construction of Rule 56, Tenn.R.Civ.P.

Specifically, the question we address is whether a plaintiff, whose motion for summary judgment is overruled, may appeal. In responding in the negative, we look to the pleadings.

I.
