1 The Principle relates to a situation in which an agent has received a general instead of a specific authority to act for a principal, typically for a certain business or trade. For those cases, the Principle provides a guidline as to the scope of the agent's authority.
2 There may be intermediary cases in which the authority of the agent is general in nature, but limited to certain types or categories of acts necessary for the conduct of the business.
