Daniels and Julian were employed by the Marriott Hotel in New Orleans and were close personal friends. One day after work, Daniels and Julian went to Werlein’s music store to open a credit account. Julian, with Daniels’s authorization and in her presence, applied for credit using Daniels’s name and credit history. Later, Julian went to Werlein’s without Daniels and charged the purchase of a television set to Daniels’s account, executing a retail installment contract by signing Daniels’s name. Daniels saw the new television in Julian’s home and was informed that it was charged to the Werlein’s account. Daniels told Julian to continue making payments. When Werlein’s credit manager first contacted Daniels to inform her that her account was delinquent, she claimed that a money order for the television was in the mail. On the second call, she asked for a “payment balance.” Some four months after the purchase, she informed Werlein’s that she had not authorized the purchase of the television nor ratified the purchase. Werlein’s sued Daniels for the unpaid balance. Decide. [Philip Werlein, Ltd. v Daniels, 536 So 2d 722 (La App)]
