1Opinion of the Court
BIRCH, Circuit Judge:
In this appeal, we decide if the determination of whether an employer reasonably anticipated that on-the-road employees would incur certain expenses is a question of law properly decided on summary judgment or a question of fact for the jury. The district court granted summary judgment against the taxpayer and found that the employer had not shown sufficient proof of reasonable anticipation of on-the-road expenses to survive the government’s motion for summary judgment. We REVERSE and REMAND for trial.
