Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • finding no employee relationship even though the purported employer required training, participation in quality improvement meetings, and set the hours of the workday
  • finding the fact that the putative employer provided office space and equipment to the alleged employee insufficient by itself to establish an employment relationship
  • affirming summary judgment for the defendant where the last four Alexander factors were inconclusive, but where the first factor, lack of control, weighed heavily towards the defendant
  • fact that plaintiff did not derive his job skills from his employment with defendant suggested no employment relationship
  • for employer-employee relationship to exist, employer must have “the right to control and direct the work of an individual, not only as to the result to be achieved, but also as to the details by which that result is achieved[.]”
