PER CURIAM [¶1] Enterprise Rent-A-Car Co. of Boston, Inc., (Enterprise) appeals from a judgment of the Superior Court (York County, Fritzsche, J.), holding that Scandent Group, Inc., (Scandent) was not jointly and severally liable with its employee, Pradmodh Koshy, to indemnify Enterprise for damages resulting from an accident that occurred when a vehicle rented from Enterprise was driven by another Scandent employee.
