Jessica worked as a courier for Pony Express Deliveries. Although Pony Express had no way of knowing it when they hired her, Jessica has a pathological hatred for Simone. The source of that hatred is not clear, but it seems to stem from a dispute between the two women dating back to high school. Three months ago, Pony Express asked Jessica to deliver a package to an office in the Dominion Tower. After making that delivery, Jessica went to the cafeteria in the basement of the building, where she knew Simone worked as the manager of a fast-food restaurant. Jessica jumped Simone from behind and administered a severe beating. The unprovoked attack has left Simone in constant pain and unable to work. Simone therefore intends to sue in tort. She wants compensation for her losses, but she also wants to see Jessica punished for her actions. Although she realizes that Jessica has very little money, Simone believes that she should be entitled to payment from Pony Express or from Western Insurance (which sold a general liability insurance policy to Jessica).

Explain the remedies that Simone may be entitled to receive, and identify the party or parties who are most likely to pay for those remedies.
