In order for there to be a bail agreement, the bailor must give the bailee the property and

the bailee must except. The bailor must compensate and the bailee owes a duty of care of the

property until it reaches its final destination of the agreement. This destination could be to

another party or back to the bailor. Bailment agreements fall under different categories in which

the bailor and bailee have different responsibilities.

Jeff gives a parking lot attendant $20 so that he can park his car while attending the

Tarheels’ basketball game against the Duke Blue Devils. This is a bailment for mutual benefit. In

exchange for $20 Jeff get a temporary space to park his car while watching the game and the

coliseum receives compensation. The ticket includes a disclaimer; in the event that a vehicle

sustains damage while on Greensboro Coliseum while on its premises, Greensboro is not liable.

Jeff stipulates that it must have been a Blue Devil’s fan taking revenge for the current outcome

of the game. In a normal bailment agreement, the bailee (Greensboro Coliseum) owes a certain

duty of care. Since the Greensboro Coliseum made it clear they are not liable for the condition of

personal property while on its premises. Jeff accepted this after accepting the ticket and

therefore, he cannot take any legal action Greensboro Coliseum. However, an investigation can

be held to discover the party/parties involved in the vandalism of Jeff’s personal property. Jeff

can then take action to recover damages.
