Archibald
v. Gold Key, Inc. (10/21/02)
|
Evidence could permit jury to
find either that individual
was employee or independent contractor where individual signed contract
indicating
he was independent contractor but company trained him; he wore uniform
and
purchased tools designated by company; received work orders from
company
and returned receipts to company each day; and was responsible for
notifying
company when he would not be reporting to work. Therefore, summary
judgment was inappropriate.
