Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Netanya would be liable for Orla's injuries if Mirena's conduct occurred in the course and scope of her employment. This means that Mirena was acting within the scope of her job duties and responsibilities, and her actions were a foreseeable result of her employment. It does not matter whether the conduct was intentional or accidental, as long as it was within the course and scope of the employment relationship. The other options (A, B, and D) are not relevant to determining liability in this scenario.
