You need to review the equipment rental contract. The person who leased the equipment is likely responsible. That person may need to pursue the matter with the hotel on their own. However, you should also check your contract with the hotel to see if the hotel specifically denied any responsibility for rented equipment associated with any function for which their premise are rented.
YOU are responsible for the debt that is secured by the "stolen" car. Be sure to make a police report on the 'stolen" car.
Wrong. If the lessee sells equipment to someone else that does not belong to him then it becomes stolen equipment. Then the buyer is in possession of stolen equipment. If the buyer knows or should know that the equipment is stolen, he is committing a felony. It is punishable by time in prison. The material is returned to the original owner.
I hope that when the items were stolen from you that you reported this crime to law enforcement authorities so that there is an official record of the theft. However - even so - take a close look at the rental contract - it may contain wording that make you responsible for whatever happens to the items while they are in your possession.
Assuming the stolen car was insured, the stolen cars insurance would be responsible. If the stolen car was not insured, the driver, if located would be responsible. If not located then the owner would probably be held responsible. Hopefully the struck vehicle is insured for "uninsured motorist" coverage. Filing the report after the accident would document the theft, but not neccesarily clear the owner of responsibility.
Liability insurance does not cover the property value of the rented equipment, but your liability insurance may cover damages resulting from claims of the use of the equipment. Example, you rent a forklift and accidently crash it into a truck you are loading. The truck owner sues you. The liability policy would probably cover the damage to the truck or any injuries caused during the accident, but would for sure not cover the damage to the forklift. Here are several opinions from FAQ Farmers: * Commercial General Liability insurance cannot cover equipment rental in the case where the insured has rented equipment. The 'exclusion j' under the coverage A states that "property owned, rented or occupied by the insured" is an exclusion under "Bodily injury and Property Damage Liability Coverage". Also, exclusion j also specifies that "property loaned to the named insured" is also excluded. * You are wrong...gl does cover the use of such equipment but does not cover if stolen, etc.
