Governmental Liability for Employee Deviation During Personal Errand
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe court addressed whether a governmental entity was liable for damages arising from an employee's operation of a vehicle, where the employee was driving outside of authorized travel routes on a personal errand. The court reasoned that liability could attach if the employee was acting within the general scope of employment, even if the specific act was unauthorized or contrary to instructions, provided the act was incidental to or reasonably foreseeable from the employment duties; however, the court ultimately found that the deviation to conduct a purely personal errand represented a significant departure from the scope of employment, thus negating vicarious liability for the resulting incident.
