Implied Agency

Legal Definition and Related Resources of Implied Agency

Meaning of Implied Agency

An agency in fact found to be so by the court drawing reasonable deductions from disclosed facts and it may spring from acts within control of principle and permitted over course of time by acquiescence , although it cannot exist contrary to his express will. See Cason v Cecil, 193 So. 362, 194 La. 41. Every agent who is authorized to conduct a particular trade or business , or generally to act for his principal in matters of a particular nature, or to do a particular class of acts, has implied authority to do whatever is incidental to the ordinary conduct of such a trade or business, or of matters of that nature, or is within the scope of that class of acts, and whatever is necessary for the proper and effective performance of his duties, but not to do anything that is outside the ordinary scope of his employment and duties. In the absence of express authority , the court would imply an authority sufficiently extensive in the agent to give effect to or carry out the unexpressed but nevertheless clear intention of the parties .
