Sally agrees to roof a house for Bob. After doing his research, Bob chooses Sally based on her great reputation for being consci

entious and doing good work. Bob knows little about roofing and stays away from all the noise involved. Sally provides her own tools for herself and other workers, sets her own schedule, and charges a flat rate of $10,000 to be paid when the job is completed. Sally hires Trudy, Glen, and Fred to help with the roofing. She pays them an hourly rate, supervises their work, provides them with tools and materials, and sets their schedules. Curious about what is going on there, Bob's friend Spencer walks by the house while the roofing is being done. Glen absentmindedly throws some old shingles off the roof and hits Spencer in the head, resulting in him going to the local emergency room and receiving a couple of stitches in his scalp. Spencer decides to sue all the roofers, Bob, and Sally for his hospital expenses and for pain and suffering. Assuming Glen was negligent, which of the following is the most likely result in a lawsuit against Sally brought by Spencer?
a. Spencer will win because Glen was acting within the scope of his employment; therefore, Sally is liable for his negligence.
b. Spencer will lose because Glen was not acting within the scope of his employment; therefore, Sally is not liable for his negligence.
c. Spencer will win because regardless of whether Glen was acting within the scope of his employment, Sally is liable for his negligence.
d. Spencer will lose because regardless of whether Glen was acting within the scope of his employment, Sally has no liability. Spencer and Sally will split the damages equally.

Answer:

Yes as an investigaiter uderstanding Agathas motive would be important because she coud be getting the water cause she is realy be thirsty or she could be getting it to taget  Eric by using the water excuse used to spy on him so hearing her motive would help me put as an investigator.

AS a jury it would be important to hear Agatha´s motive because I can hear why she was trespasing to get the water because she could be dehydrated and need the water. For a jury to hear her story would make to choose the choice of guilty or inicent and alos so she gets a chance to speak for herself then from what a investigator found.
