Generally

W.D.Wash.2022.   Cit. generally in sup. Consumer, personally and as representative of a proposed class,
sued seller, which was a full-service pharmacy, alleging that it violated the Telephone Consumer
Protection Act by allowing telemarketing companies to make autodialed calls using an artificial or
prerecorded voice to his and other consumers' cell phones without their consent. This court denied

whether companies were seller's agents such that seller was vicariously liable for their actions under
common-law   agency principles described in the Restatement Third of Agency. Williams v. PillPack
LLC,  644 F.Supp.3d 845, 851.

fraudulent transfers. The court cited the Restatement Third of Agency in reasoning that agency law

agent to affect the person's legal relationships and to act on their behalf, in contrast, subsidiary's former
employee misappropriated security credentials for fraudulent purposes without subsidiary's consent.
Essilor International SAS v. J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., 650 F.Supp.3d 62, 83.

Cal.App.2023. Intro. quot. in sup. Representatives in two California Private Attorneys General Act
(PAGA)  actions against employer for alleged violations of the Labor Code filed a motion to intervene in
a third overlapping PAGA action against the same employer, after representatives learned of an
imminent settlement of the third action that included a release that would extinguish all PAGA claims
against employer. The trial court denied the motion, finding that representatives had no standing to
intervene. While vacating and remanding on other grounds, this court concluded that the trial court was
correct to deny the motion to the extent it sought mandatory intervention, because representatives could
