Question

First time offender arrested on a dwlsr-with knowledge. I was not read my miranda rights. What is my best course of action? What is an expected outcome?

Answer

A first offense is anywhere from just a fine to 60 days jail. Miranda may not even be an issue and even if it is, that usually doesn't mean the case is dropped but only that your statements may be suppressed. You need to talk to an attorney in your area that knows the courts in your area to gauge the best expected outcome.

Question

I have a renter who usually holds a big (I mean big with at least 100 people on site) party on 4th of July every year. My question is if something happens during the party, say someone falls, who is responsible? The owner of the property or the renters? If it is the owner, is there a way to protect him/her in that situation?

A friend of mine told me to have the tenants write up some source of agreement where they'll be responsible for all the damages/lawsuits as a result of the party. That agreement should hold the owner of the property free of any responsibility. Is it feasible?

Best Regards,

Answer

Such an agreement is worth little, as it is an agreement between you and the renter and does not bind third parties. At best, it means that if you are sued then he would have to reimburse you, but if he is a renter he probably does not have many assets or any that you can go against, so the attempt at an indemnification clause ha little value unless you can force him to get a renter's liability insurance policy. If someone is injured, their attorney will sue everyone who might have some legal responsibility; as owner of the property, you are the most obvious "deep pockets" defendant since it is assumed you will be carrying substantial liability insurance, which you should. Even if you have absolutely no fault [fight breaks out and plaintiff hit by another party goer], you likely will be sued and it will cost several thousands just to get out of the case [but your insurance will defend you for free on any negligence claim].

Having the agreement might have a positive psychological effect on the renter. With a hundred people there, there is a high risk of someone getting injured. You could ban such large parties. Insurance is your only sure protection.

not proof read

Answer

Mr. Shers is correct. An agreement between you and the renter could be legally binding between the two of you as to who pays a judgment, but not binding on the injured party, and if the renter doesn't have the assets to pay, your agreement will be worthless. You need to make sure your insurance is up to date and provides adequate coverage. I would also recommend that you require your renter to have renters insurance and that they provide you proof of insurance paid up to date before each such party. That's the best protection you can get.
