LIABILITY. Responsibility; the state of one who is bound in law and justice
to do something which may be enforced by action. This liability may arise
from contracts either express or implied, or in consequence of torts
committed.
2. The liabilities of one man are not in general transferred to his
representative's further than to reach the estate in his hands. For example,
an executor is not responsible for the liabilities of his testator further
than the estate of the testator which has come to his hands. See Hamm. on
Part. 169, 170.
3. The husband is liable for his wife's contracts made dum sola, and
for those made during coverture for necessaries, and for torts committed
either while she was sole or since her marriage with him; but this liability
continues only during the coverture; as to her torts, or even her contracts
made before marriage; for the latter, however, she may be sued as her
executor or administrator, when she assumes that character.
4. A master is liable for the acts of his servant while in his employ,
performed in the usual course of his business, upon the presumption that
they have been authorized by him; but he is responsible only in a civil
point of view and not criminally, unless the acts have been actually
authorized by him. See Bouv. Inst. Index, h.t.; Driver; Quasi Offence;
Servant.
