"The Law of Agency," with University of Virginia School of Law Vice Dean George Geis

Vice Dean George Geis talks about the law of agency during a mock class for admitted students in 2012.

[@DonYutuc]

Who's watching in 2024? Professor George Geis, thank you so much! The enthusiastic lecture is very helpful and I am so glad you are a business law and contracts expert. I'm in bar Prep review for the California Bar Exam. 🍸 ❤ The Gorton v. Doty is a monumental ruling for all to be familiar with in law school! Tremendous takeaways: 1. "You can have an agency relationship without a contract." ❤ 2. The watch scenario is amazing! - minute 18:00 give or take.

So I’m essentially watching battlerap videos and somehow 15-20 videos later I ended up here lol and I’m glad I did. His passion and grace for teaching made me stick around for the whole video and now I have knowledge in something I wouldn’t have ever stopped to listen to listen to before.

I've watched so many of your videos, and i can't help but think about what it would be like to be in this class.. maybe the University of Virginia is where i should go.

[@PHenry-wn3li]

Geis is also an instructor for Themis Bar Prep.

[@erbypetit2605]

i like the way wich the law is teaching in this university

[@keekee5848]

[@Reff370]

Attorney/Lawyer is the agency and the court is the corporation/bank

[@robertabbott2225]

Isn't there a maximum of law that says the agent is never responsible for the principal please respond

[@kauigirl808]

Thanks!

By arranging the commercial law in this way, other tax law issues and business administration can also be organized. Let's definitely aim for 90 points in the commercial law

[@zvikomborerojakara824]

On the trying to prove that the couch was acting on behalf of the lady teacher, can't we say that the court dwelt on the fact that she might have been the one driving the car alone but she placed that duty on the coach thus he was now acting on her behalf?

[@jituburman1527]

For disclosed agency, explicit in nature, vicarious liability lies on principal but since having no personal control for offence committed, criminal liability can be avoided by principal for violative act never sought to be performed by agent....

[@sunwang3076]

[@fremontvideos3236]

Whom can I sue? Who will get my complaint? Also in formal English not supposed to end any sentence with a preposition, and yet News broadcasters do it. I'm an undergraduate at college of Southern Nevada seeking AAS business management I'm watching this for legal environment class with Dr Malik Kendricks But the accounting is absolutely unfathomable, so I might be switching to real estate. But the business degree has a double accreditation, more prestige

Cancel their POA on your property, then record your documents in a private folder Copyright your name, claim your birth record, your family records, titles, deeds, etc. on a Non UCC and obtain a 98 series Estate EIN the Court Recorder acts as your POA on your behalf without your knowledge.

[@norkormor922]

agency law or some kind of commercial law is very boring subject until i’m watching this video lol

[@fremontvideos3236]

There is no agency relationship because Miss Doty was never hired to drive the students in the first place. More likely than not, coach karst was the agent of the school because somebody working for the school should have been the pilot of that vehicle. It would have been okay according to miss Doty if someone else had driven because it would have been an assignment, a substitute. 💯

17:00 "My watch'. Define 'my'. Are you claiming 'ownership' of the watch? Can you prove that? How did you 'pay' for it... with FEDERAL RESERVE NOTES? Then does 'The FED' have a first lien position on the watch? If one doesn't 'own' the watch in the first place... how can one put another in the position of 'agent' for something one doesn't have ownership of in the first place?

[@alreemVacation]

This is late answer but i'll just put it out there. His watch is a personal item and he can simply prove 'ownership' by possession or receipts. It is not real property where you need a written deed document to prove ownership which is a different story.

[@bythedog]

@@alreemVacation A ‘receipt’ is proof of what?! War?! How does one ‘own’ anything? Must first ‘pay’ for it?? With what... a promise?!? 🤦‍♂️

[@louisebell4238]

federal notes are legal tender. by law

[@onetastanly9644]

Credit is Legal Tender Title 12 USC sub-section 411 , Full Faith and Credit Obligation of the united States of America. Title 18 USC ss 8 under the Law United States of America account Obligation or other Security of the United States define the"Term' Obligation include all bonds, certificates of indebtedness, National bank currency.

Checks , or drafts for money drawn by by or Authorized Officer by the United States, Stamps and other responsibilities thereof.

[@bythedog]

O.k. Professor Geis... riddle me this! Is the one using the legal NAME then deemed 'agent' for the legal NAME (by the STATE?) that I'm led to believe is property of the STATE? If so... how? By whom? Is this implied by conduct? Does simply using the legal NAME make the 'agent' liable for everything done in the legal NAME?! If so... how? If not... who would be liable??? Is 'agent' synonymous with 'trustee' or having similiar duties (trustee de son tort?)? Anxiously awaiting (but not anticipating) a reply. Lol!
