Doyle, Judge.
Jan-Pro Franchising International, Inc. (“JPI”) brought this declaratory judgment action against Giovani Depianti and Hyun Ki Kim, seeking, in relevant part, a judgment that Depianti and Kim were not its employees under the Massachusetts Independent Contractor Statute (“MICS”)- 1 The parties filed cross-motions for summary judgment, and the trial court found that issues of fact precluded summary judgment as to Kim, but the court granted summary judgment to Depianti. JPI now appeals the ruling as to Depianti, and for the reasons that follow, we reverse. 2
Summary judgment is proper…
