Bill and Sal worked for Mrs. Greenlawn, a lawn-care company. One morning they attended at a new customer's residence. While in the process of applying fertilizer to the lawn, the boys mistakenly applied strong weed killer that caused the grass to turn brown and die. The boys failed to follow the employer's directive that they double check to ensure that fertilizer was being used. The owner of Mrs. Greenlawn apologized to the homeowner but indicated that it was not her fault and she would not be paying for the costs of sodding the entire lawn. Is the position taken by the owner of Mrs. Greenlawn correct at law?
◦ Yes, because the employees were specifically told to ensure that fertilizer was being applied before commencing the job.
◦ Yes, because businesses are incorporated to protect themselves from these types of claims.
◦ Yes, because the owner of Mrs. Greenlawn did nothing wrong at law.
◦ No, because the weed killer used by Mrs. Greenlawn caused too much damage.
◦ No, because Mrs. Greenlawn is vicariously liable for torts committed by employees in the course of their employment.
