   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-2998
   Eastern District of Arkansas   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Hansen and Riley, Circuit 
   Judges] 
   Civil case -Federal Tort Claims Act. In analyzing whether the Postal 
   Service was plaintiff's employer under Arkansas's dual employment doctrine, 
   the district court erred in finding that the first requirement of the test for
   dual employment - the existence of a contract for hire - was satisfied, as 
   there was no evidence in the record that either an express or an implied 
   contract was formed between plaintiff and the Postal Service; district court's
   grant of summary judgment reversed and the case remanded for further 
   proceedings.
