Sage Club v. Hunt

Jonathan Zittrain

Can certain jobs or duties create a scope of employment that encompasses intentional torts? The defendant club employed a bartender (Thyfault) who had a physical altercation with the plaintiff. The altercation arose out of plaintiff’s insinuation that Thyfault had taken too much money for some drinks.
