CLARA B. SULLIVAN, APPELLANT, v. SWIFT COMPANY, AN ILLINOIS CORPORATION, APPELLEE.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant seeks review of adverse summary decrees of the trial judge, dismissing her complaint for recision of a mortgage and granting the appellee's counterclaim for foreclosure of said mortgage.

Reviewing the record in a light most favorable to the appellant, which we are required to do in reviewing summary decrees or judgments [see: Pritchard v. Peppercorn and Peppercorn, Inc., Fla. 1957, 96 So.2d 769; Humphrys v. Jarrell, Fla.App. 1958, 104 So.2d 404], it appears that there was no genuine issue of a material fact which would as a matter of law permit the appellant to rescind or defeat the mortgage in question upon the ground of duress. See: Jones v. Hartford Accident and Indemnity Co., Fla.App. 1959, 109 So.2d 582; Duncan Plastering Company v. Giffen Building Specialties, Inc., Fla.App. 1962, 138 So.2d 532.

Therefore, the actions of the chancellor are affirmed.

Affirmed.
