Agency coupled with an interest is irrevocable by the principal. Bankruptcy of the principal automatically ends agency by operation of law. An agent's right of lien allows retention of the principal's goods until debts/commissions are satisfied. Secret profit breaches fiduciary obligation, requiring complete surrender of profit to the principal.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze 'Agency coupled with an interest'.
Identify that an agent holding a security interest in the agency property cannot have their authority revoked unilaterally by the principal.
The interest creates a vested legal right protecting the agent.
2
Examine 'Bankruptcy of the principal'.
Identify that events such as death, insanity, or bankruptcy terminate agency authority automatically under operation of law.
The principal's estate passes to trustees, stripping the principal of legal capacity.
3
Evaluate 'Agent's right of lien'.
Connect this right to the lawful retention of the principal's property until earned remuneration or reimbursed expenses are paid.
Lien acts as a possessory security device for unpaid claims.
4
Evaluate 'Secret profit made by an agent'.
Identify that taking secret profits violates the duty not to make a personal profit, requiring restitution to the principal.
Agents must exercise good faith and cannot retain unauthorized personal gains.
