Question
Jeff is an avid UNC-Chapel Hill basketball fan, and drives to the Greensboro Coliseum to watch his beloved Tarheels play in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) basketball tournament. When Jeff arrives at the Greensboro Coliseum parking lot, he pays $20 to the lot attendant for parking, takes a ticket (on the ticket is the language "WARNING: Not responsible for damage to personal property while on Greensboro Coliseum premises"), parks his car, puts his keys in his pocket, and enters the Coliseum. Jeff is overjoyed as he watches the Tarheels beat the Duke Blue Devils by 30 points. As he returns to his vehicle, he is shocked to see his windshield bashed in, and surmises that the perpetrator must have been a Blue Devil fan (after all, Jeff's car is painted Carolina Blue, and there is a large, heavy Blue Devil statue protruding from his windshield!). Jeff also surmises that the Blue Devil fan is probably long gone by now (the Tar Heels were leading by 25 points at halftime!) and already well within the protective confines of the stone wall surrounding Duke.
Write a letter of advice to Jeff. In a one- to two-page (250- to 500-word) letter, advise Jeff of his legal rights against the Greensboro Coliseum for damage to his vehicle.
Explanation / Answer
Dear Jeff,
Sorry to hear unfortunate incident took place with your car in Greensboro Coliseum.
I hope you have registered complaint with local police authority, and you have proceeded with formalities for claiming insurance for the damages.
Also, with the help of Police I request to claim CCTV footage for the parking lot, it may help you to find culprit.
This incident should be notified to Greensboro Coliseum, so that they can increase security cover during such public events, So that people can trust them in future.
Though they have warned you about not taking responsibility for damage, they have produced this warning message after paying fees for parking.
They should have warned you in advanced and then asked for willingness about you parking in the Greensboro Coliseum premises.
Henceforth be little careful while parking in public places and understand risks associated with any parking space.
Regards,
ABC
