Analysis
No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.
Opinion
Petition for writ of review.
It is contended by petitioner that the applicant in whose favor an award was made by the Industrial Accident Commission was not in his employ but was working independently, although under an arrangement with petitioner by which the latter furnished him with the necessary tools and appliances for performing his work and received forty per cent of the amounts earned by the applicant. The respondent, Industrial Accident Commission, concluded from the evidence on the whole that the relation of employer and employee existed, and thereupon made its award. We are satisfied that the evidence sustains this conclusion, and for that reason the writ is dismissed and the award affirmed. *Page 89
