implied
Circumstances, conduct, or statements which suggest the authority to act, warranty , promise , or consent , among other things (rather than stating directly) are considered to be implied .
For example, in agency law, “ implied authority ” means the agent is assumed to act on behalf of a principal , but it is not express or written in an agreement . More about implied authority, see A. Gay Jenson Farms Co. v. Cargill, Inc., 309 N.W.2d 285 (Minn. 1981)
