Principal Not Bound by Agent's Unauthorized Settlement Representation
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe appellate court reviewed a lower tribunal's decision regarding a claim where the petitioner sought damages, arguing that an agent's unauthorized representations regarding the finality of a settlement offer bound the principal. The court reasoned that the agent lacked the actual or apparent authority to communicate that the offer was the principal's final position, noting that the principal had not taken any action to suggest such authority and the petitioner was aware of limitations on the agent's authority, thus affirming the judgment that the principal was not bound by the agent's assurance.
