APPEAL FROM DISTRICT COURT OF THE THIRD JUDICIAL DISTRICT, CANYON COUNTY, GILBERT C. NORRIS, J.

John Hjellum, II, Boise, for appellants.

Elam, Burke, Jeppesen Evans, Boise, for appellee.


This case involves the same undisputed facts which formed the basis of Foust v.

The decision of the district court below, granting Bufford's motion for summary judgment on the basis that he was as a matter of law acting in the course of his employment, is affirmed on the authority of the first Foust case, supra, and the numerous authorities cited therein.

Judgment affirmed. Costs to respondent.

McFADDEN, SPEAR, JJ., and FELTON, DONALDSON, D.JJ., concur.
