Sub-Agent
Definition
A person employed by and acting under the control of the original Agent in conducting the business of the Agency (Section 191, ICA 1872). A sub-agent is not directly appointed by the Principal. Generally, an Agent cannot delegate authority (Delegatus Non Potest Delegare).
Example
"A real estate agent (Agent) appoints another person to show properties on his behalf. That other person is the Sub-Agent, and any negligence of the sub-agent makes the original Agent responsible."
