Additional Liability Under Respondeat Superior

Abstract

A recent Colorado supreme court case held that in a civil action when an employer admits liability for the tortious actions of its employee, the plaintiff cannot assert additional claims against the employer arising out of the same incident. The bill allows a plaintiff to bring such claims against an employer. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
