418 Words2 Pages

I have read your case, and I am deeply sorry for what happened to your property at the Greensboro Coliseum parking lot. Since you paid the Greensboro Coliseum for the parking lot fee and they were responsible to watch out your asset while you were away, the bailment agreement was established. Due to that, I have some information relating to the bailment relationship and the rights as well as liabilities for both parties, you and the Greensboro Coliseum, in this relationship. According to Investopedia, bailment is defined as “the contractual transfer of possession of assets or property for a specific objective. In bailment, the deliverer of the asset is the bailor, the receiver is the bailee” (Investopia). In the bailor-bailee relationship, both parties hold some specific rights and liabilities. For bailors, there are some duties and liabilities such as repayment of expenses (a duty to pay for all expenses the bailee spends for the purpose of the bailment), disclosing of defects …show more content…

In other words, you are at your own risk when you park at the parking lot since they clearly state the message on the ticket. Even though the bailment relationship existed and the company is supposed to cover for your damages according to the duties and liabilities of bailees, there will be no damages payments from the company covering for your loss due to the message which was clearly written on the ticket. They assume you understand the condition in this bailment

  • Bail Bond System

    The bail bond is more like third party that acts as a financial institution that pays the bail on behalf of the arrestee. The way bail bond system works is by making the arrestee pay upfront a nonrefundable percent to the bail bond company, this percent is usually 10% of the whole amount of the bail. [4] Then, the bail bond company pays the bond to the court and when the arrestee goes to his or her trial date the bond company will received the full amount of the bail they posted to the court for the released of the arrestee, so basically the bail bond company at the end receives all of its money back plus they get to keep the nonrefundable 10% that the arrestee paid up front. [4] There has been a lot of debates about the bail bond system because it is not for the benefit of indigent people because at the end indigent arrestees end up paying more than affluent arrestees who are able to pay for their bond themselves. In my opinion, I think that the author of the article is correct about describing the bail bond system as archaic.
