Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jett may be liable through the doctrine of vicarious liability if Ira's negligence occurred within the course and scope of his employment with Jett. This means that Ira was acting on behalf of Jett and within the scope of his job duties when the injury occurred. A and D are incorrect because they do not relate to the fact that Ira was acting as a representative of Jett. B is also incorrect because it only refers to working hours, not whether Ira's actions were within the scope of his employment.
