Appellant Thomas Davis filed this breach of contract action against his former employer, Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority d/b/a MARTA, alleging that the corporation had improperly reduced and terminated his long-term disability benefits. MARTA filed a motion for summary judgment, asserting that its actions were authorized under the Mass Transit Integrated Risk Master Policy issued by ACE Indemnity Insurance Company, which contained the complete terms and limitations governing the payment of benefits. Davis filed a motion in limine and a motion for partial summary judgment, alleging that the additional terms set forth in the Master Policy were irrelevant to his claim and that the payment of benefits was instead controlled by MARTA’s open enrollment booklet, which failed to provide the limitations upon which MARTA relied. The trial court concluded that the open enrollment booklet did not set forth the complete terms governing the benefits, but rather provided adequate notice that complete information had to be obtained from another source, i.e., the Schedule of Benefits under the Master Policy, the terms of which authorized MARTA’s actions. Based upon these conclusions, the trial court denied Davis’s motions and granted MARTA’s motion concerning this issue. Davis appeals the trial court’s rulings. For the reasons that follow, we affirm. “To prevail at summary judgment under OCGA § 9-11-56, the moving party must demonstrate that there is no genuine issue of material fact and that the undisputed facts, viewed in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party, warrant judgment as a matter of law. OCGA § 9-11-56 c.” Lau’s Corp. v. Haskins , 261 Ga. 491 405 SE2d 474 1991.
In this case, the undisputed facts and evidence established that Davis started working for MARTA in 1998. On June 21, 2002, Davis became disabled due to a mental illness and began receiving short-term disability benefits. After his entitlement to short-term disability benefits was exhausted, Davis applied for and was approved to receive long-term disability benefits, effective September 21, 2002.
