Possible agency scenarios
Here are the possible “undisclosed agency” scenarios at the time of contract:
- Fully disclosed agency: Principal has appointed agent, agent has disclosed agency, agent has disclosed principal.
- Undisclosed principal: Principal has appointed agent, agent has disclosed agency, agent has not disclosed principal.
- Undisclosed agency: Principal has appointed agent, agent has not disclosed agency, agent has not disclosed principal.
- Full principal: Principal has not appointed agent, agent has not disclosed agency, agent has not disclosed principal. (i.e., a fellow who claims ex post facto to have been an agent is better known as a “liar”).
