Case Problem:
Sherwood negligently ran into the rear of Austen’s car, which was stopped at a stoplight. As a result, Austen received bodily injuries and her car was damaged. Sherwood, arts editor for the Mississippi Press Register, was en route from a concert he had covered for the newspaper. When the accident occurred, he was on his way to spend the night at a friend’s house. Austen sued Sherwood and—under the doctrine of respondeat superior—Sherwood’s employer, the Mississippi Press Register. Who is liable? Explain.
