2000“An administrative procedural deficiency is not fatal to the admission of the test results from a breath analysis test if there is unrefuted evidence of the accuracy of the test results....” Cappiello, 895 S.W.2d at 626 , citing Shine, 807 S.W.2d at 162-63 .

1973Albeit this pronouncement may suffice to resolve the particular circumstances presented in the opinions which recite it, we doubt the complete accuracy of the requirement that “ '(a) the employee has made a contract of hire, express or implied,with the special employer.’ ” It was early recognized that the Missouri act, by reason of its definition of “employee” (note 1, supra), “includes every person ‘in the service of any employer’ and is not confined to those ‘under any contract of hire,’ express or implied, but also includes those performing service by ‘appointment or election.’ ” Pruitt v.
