1Opinion of the Court

CUDAHY, Circuit Judge.

Slavoljub Damnjanovic brought this action against the United States pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 2671-2680 (1988) (FTCA), for claims arising under the Illinois Structural Work Act and common-law negligence. The district court granted summary judgment against both of his claims on the ground that the government did not “have charge of’ the work. Because we find that there are genuine issues of material fact, we reverse and remand.
