Vicarius non habet vicarium

Vicarius non habet vicarium
A vicar has no deputy. See 1 Bl Comm 390. The maxim has been construed more freely as meaning that a person who acts in a representative capacity cannot employ a representative, on the principle that delegated authority cannot be redelegated. See Broom's Legal Maxims 840.
