Business & Professions Code §7583.39 holds the licensee (security company) responsible for which of the following conduct by an employee guard?

Explanation

BPC §7583.39 (and California vicarious-liability principles, including respondeat superior under Civil Code §2338 and case law) make the security licensee responsible for acts of employees within the scope of employment. A wrongful arrest, excessive force, or unlawful detention by a uniformed guard on duty creates direct exposure for the security company. This is why companies require training, policy compliance, and incident reports. Options (a)-(c) misstate scope-of-employment doctrine — written pre-authorization is not required and civil torts are within scope.
