Question: 1. What if an accident has occurred because an employee was performing a job for which he was not qualified after the employee had falsely told the employer that he was qualified? Should the employer still be liable for the victim's losses under respond eat superior?
2. The common law did not hold parents liable for their children's unintentional torts unless the parents' negligent supervision led directly to the tort. But the common law did hold husbands vicariously liable for their wives' torts (a rule since abrogated by statute). Can you provide an efficiency explanation for these common law rules?
