Contracts Of Agency Without Stipulations As To Duration, Thomas Porter Hardman Feb 1929

Contracts Of Agency Without Stipulations As To Duration, Thomas Porter Hardman

West Virginia Law Review

The Restatement of Agency by the American Law Institute provides that "A contract of agency, or a contract of service, is the contract, when one exists, which determines the existence, duration, terms or conditions of the [agency] relation." But what is the duration of the relation when this so-called "contract of agency" contains no stipulation as to how long the employment is to continue? And how does the so-called contract of agency determine the duration in such cases? It is the purpose of this comment to discuss the West Virginia cases on this point.

Cases On Principal And Agent And Master And Servant Selected From Decisions Of English And American Courts, Edwin C. Goddard Jan 1925

Cases On Principal And Agent And Master And Servant Selected From Decisions Of English And American Courts, Edwin C. Goddard

Books

“In the first edition of this work no effort was made to cover the subject of Master and Servant. The exigencies of the law school curriculum, if not the unity of the subjects, seem to require that Principal and Agent and Master and Servant be treated in a single course. Historically the subject of Agency grew out of the much earlier developed subject of Master and Servant. Blackstone did not use the term ‘agent’ in reference to the agency relation, nor does he recognize the subject of Agency apart from that of Master and Servant, and there only in a …

Cases On Principal And Agent, Selected From Decisions Of English And American Courts, Edwin C. Goddard Jan 1914

Cases On Principal And Agent, Selected From Decisions Of English And American Courts, Edwin C. Goddard

Books

It is a striking proof of the fact that Agency is a modern subject in the law that Blackstone, in his Commentaries on the Laws of England, does not mention the subject by name, and barely makes a four-line reference to one sort of agent in his classification of servants. The old ca~es do, of course, sometimes deal with pure agency questions, but the agent is usually referred to as a servant or a factor, and the questions in issue are generally settled upon some principle of the law of Master and Servant. Agency is essentially a business- relation; hence …

Ratification By An Undisclosed Principal, Edwin C. Goddard Jan 1903

Ratification By An Undisclosed Principal, Edwin C. Goddard

Articles

Omnis ratihabitio retrotrahitur, et mandato priori aequiparatur. Every ratification relates back, and is equivalent to a prior authority, is the second great maxim of agency, and has been said to be as well established and as simple of application as the first and fundamental one, qui facit per alium, facit per se. It was as well recognized in the Roman law, as it is in the common law.
