Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, as part of our "Listen and Learn" series, we're discussing agent authority, which is one of the most heavily-tested issues on the bar exam.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Actual authority - express vs. implied
- The rules of apparent authority
- Other business associations topics that come up in combination with agent authority on an exam
- Analyzing two hypos from previous California bar exams
- How to structure an answer to a question involving agent authority
