The alleged oral 1st and 2nd agreements were not credible as a matter of law because they were contradicted by contemporaneous written loan documents and acknowledgements of debt, lacked any supporting contemporaneous writing, were inherently implausible as commercial arrangements, and the defendants advanced inconsistent versions; therefore no real or bona fide triable issue was shown and the appeal must be dismissed.
