Holding The Supreme Court properly denied the plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment because the plaintiff failed to demonstrate standing. The plaintiff did not prove that the purported allonges were firmly affixed to the note as required by law.

the plaintiff failed to demonstrate that the purported allonges, which were on pieces of paper completely separate from the second consolidated note, were "so firmly affixed thereto as to become a part thereof"
