In the Parlato V

In the Parlato v. Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States case, the court held:

A) the duty is on the party with whom an agent deals to discover the principal's identity.
B) the agent's disclosure of a trade name and the plaintiff's awareness of that name are sufficient to protect an agent from personal liability on a contract.
C) a principal is not responsible for torts its former agent commits after termination of the agency relationship against a third party unknown to the principal.
D) apparent authority of an agent is always terminated at the same time as the termination of the agent's actual authority.
