Rosia Adams, a warehouse employee at a school board warehouse, was injured when she slipped on a wet floor at the warehouse. The floor was wet because it had been mopped to clean up a spill from a defective Coca-Cola vending machine leased to the school district by a local Coca-Cola bottling company (Coke). The written lease for the machine required the school board to indemnify Coke for injuries like those suffered by Adams. The lease was signed by a warehouse inventory clerk. His job was simply to receive and inventory goods delivered to the school board’s warehouse. Adams sued Coke and got a judgment against it. Coke filed a third party suit against the school board, arguing that the lease obligated the school board to compensate Coke for Adams’s injuries. Based on the facts just presented, did the warehouse clerk have express, implied or apparent authority to bind the school board to this particular term in the lease?
