The defendants claim that Julie Chen, acting as JC Corporation’s agent,7 did not retain control of the premises or supervise Interstate’s work such that JC Corporation may be held vicariously hable for Interstate’s gross neghgence. In support of their argument, the defendants cite Julie Chen’s testimony that she did not ask Interstate to cut the ductwork flush to the ceiling; rather, Interstate offered to do so when she asked if Interstate could push the ductwork into the ceiling. The defendants assert that, ultimately, she left the decision to Interstate and that she did not exercise control to a degree sufficient to hold JC Corporation vicariously hable. We disagree.
