Jennifer, Martin, and Edsel form a limited liability company called Big Apple, LLC, to operate a bar in New York City. Jennifer, Martin, and Edsel are member-managers of the LLC. One of Jennifer’s jobs as a member-manager is to drive the LLC’s truck and pick up certain items of supply for the bar each Wednesday. On the way back to the bar on Wednesday after picking up the supplies for that week, Jennifer negligently runs over a pedestrian, Tilly Tourismo, on a street in Times Square. Tilly is severely injured and sues Big Apple, LLC to recover monetary damages for her injuries. Who is liable? Why?

Answer and explanation:

Big Apple, LLC is liable because in a member-managed LLC each of the members has the same rights and responsibilities with the firm. The accident happened while Jennifer was on duty. Regardless she acted negligently, as part of the LLC, she should not be charged individually but jointly.
