Kinzig, an attorney, recovered a judgment for Jones and deposited the money in her (Kinzig's) own personal account at Fidelity National Bank. Kinzig sent
Jones a personal check, made payable to Jones, for the amount of the judgment. Before the check cleared, however, the bank failed. Jones subsequently
brought suit against Kinzing to recover the amount of the judgment, which had been collected by Kinzig. Kinzig defended the action on the grounds that
she, as a special agent, was entitled to exercise great discretion in the manner of performing her work; that the loss resulted solely from the bank's failure
and not from personal negligence; and that she had exercised reasonable care in carrying out her duty. Would this be an acceptable defense?
O Yes. As long as an agent honestly believes there is no negligence, the principal can take no action against the agent.
O Yes. Special agents are protected by "agency immunity" when they exercise care in performing their duties.
O No. An agent is liable to the principal for any loss when the agent commingles his property and that of the principal.
O No. An agent is liable because of participation in dual agency.
