A transporter who had to sell some perishable goods without the prior authority of the owner becomes an agent by?
Answer Details
A transporter who sells some perishable goods without the prior authority of the owner becomes an agent by necessity. This means that the transporter was compelled by circumstances to act on behalf of the owner without their prior consent, in order to prevent loss or damage to the goods. The law recognizes such situations and allows the transporter to act as an agent by necessity, with the expectation that the owner will ratify (i.e., approve) the sale and compensate the transporter accordingly.
