Pamela Was the Agent in Charge of Distribution and Collections

question 20

Essay

Pamela was the agent in charge of distribution and collections for the Coble Dairy Products Cooperative. Thrower operated a grocery store and purchased dairy products from Coble. Pamela made false invoice sheets, showing delivery to Thrower of greater quantities than Thrower actually had ordered or received. Pamela collected from Thrower on the basis of these increased amounts, and then kept for herself the difference between the increased amounts and the amounts that should have been charged. When Thrower learned of this, he sued Coble for the excess payments he had made. Coble denied that Pamela was its agent in making excess collections. Will Thrower win?
