Question $3(2\mathrm{.}75$ points$)$

Listen

I am the pastor of a church. I pay Giovanny's Lawn Service to cut the grass at the church. Giovanny negligently runs over a neighbor on the public sidewalk with his riding mower while cutting the church lawn, injuring the neighbor. Is the church liable for this injury?

No$,$ because we have no contractual relationship with the neighbor.

Yes, because $$ hired Giovanny to cut the grass.

$$ No$,$ because Giovanny is not a church employee.

$$ Yes, because it happened while Giovanny was cutting the church lawn.
