Case Details
Court of Appeal reaffirmed extended principles of vicarious liability, finding a faith-based establishment vicariously liable for abusive acts of an elder.
Additional Notes
The court held that the elder's position was integral to the congregation's 'business' and that assigning power to him created a risk of abuse. The close connection test for vicarious liability was satisfied.
