Apparent Agency

A situation in which a person or company inaccurately claims to be an agent for another person or company and conducts some act in that capacity, but which the principal (who is not actually a principal) later accepts and recognizes. Because the agent is not actually an agent, any act he/she conducts on behalf of the principal ordinarily would be invalid; however, agency by ratification exists because the "principal" confirms the act.
