Jeff Christensen and Kyle James Fausett V‪.‬

This case is before the court on a petition for a writ of certiorari to the Utah Court of Appeals. Plaintiffs Jeff Christensen and Kyle James Fausett claim that the court of appeals erred when it concluded that defendant Burns International Security Services ("Burns") was not liable under the doctrine of respondeat superior for the actions of its employee, Gloria Swenson. The court of appeals determined that Swenson was acting outside the scope of her employment at the time of her automobile accident with Christensen and Fausett and therefore affirmed the trial courts grant of summary judgment. Christensen v. Burns Intl Sec. Servs., 844 P.2d 992, 995 (Utah Ct. App. 1992). We reverse.
