MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Chapin v. United States, 258 F.2d 465 (9th Cir. 1958):

But no single relevant factor is necessarily controlling. "The results reached in other decisions are helpful but not necessarily controlling. * * * In each case involving scope of employment all of the relevant circumstances must be considered and weighed in relation to one another." Loper v. Morrison, 1944, 23 Cal.2d 600, 605, 145 P.2d 1, 3.
