The owner of Central Plains, Joe Skeith, suggested to David Tate of C.J. Tate Sons that Tate work with Central Plains on a job and they would share the profits. They both supplied equipment at the site: Tate provided the bonding, hired the workers, and did all the payroll paperwork; Skeith supervised on the job, set the working hours, and arranged for housing and transportation. Both obtained workers' compensation insurance. Tate hired Dennis Hickson, who usually worked for Central. One day after being paid, Hickson and his coworker roommate, L, went to dinner and then a club. L got aggressive toward other patrons, so Skeith asked Hickson and another to take L to his motel room. When Hickson later returned, L and a woman were in the room. L and the woman left. Hickson went to sleep but let L in when he returned. The next thing Hickson remembered was waking to find L attacking him. Hickson was stabbed. Hickson filed a workers' compensation claim against Central, and Central moved to add Tate, alleging Tate was Hickson's employer. Tate alleged Hickson was an employee of a joint venture of Central and Tate. Who was Hickson's employer? [Central Plains Const. v. Hickson, 959 P.2d 998 (Okla. Ct. App.)]
