Opinion

BENCH, Senior Judge:

¶ 1 E.J. Sutton appeals the trial court's grant of summary judgment in favor of Bob Miles, which was based on its determination that Miles was an agent or employee of Lowell Construction Co. (Lowell) at the time of the accident from which Sutton's tort claims arise and was therefore immune from suit pursuant to a release signed by Sutton in favor of Lowell (the Release). We reverse and remand for further proceedings.
