Syllabus

Summary judgment Civ.R. 56(C) breach of contract affidavits intended third-party beneficiary emotional distress damages. Trial court did not err in granting summary judgment on plaintiffs' breach of contract claim. Affidavits submitted by plaintiffs in opposition to summary judgment were insufficient to create a genuine issue of material fact as to whether wife and minor child were intended third-party beneficiaries of husband's lease agreement with auto dealer. Lease agreement did not meet any of the recognized exceptions that would allow plaintiffs to recover for emotional distress arising from a breach of contract.
