ReZourceman Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Dilema, please confirm. Party A, keeps their phone on top of a small draw unit made of straw. On top of this is a basket, that hangs over the edge slightly both sides, full of products. This makes the unit rather wobbly. Party A has a pint glass of water at night and leaves the glass directly beneath the phone by the draw unit. Party B goes into draw unit to get something. When putting said item away the phone is knocked off the unit and into the water. Whos fault? (Also how do you post a poll? Tried making this one)
Stalin Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Blatantly your fault, buy them a new phone you clumsy fucker.
Retro_Link Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Well really it's the fault of whoever knocked the phone off, after all, it wouldn't have ended up in the water if it hadn't of been knocked off!
thirtynine. Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 If either party is a woman, Its her fault.
Emasher Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Blatantly your fault, buy them a new phone you clumsy fucker. I don't remember him saying what party he belonged to or even that he was actually involved. Your also being quite harsh.
Daft Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Party B, although party A was asking for it. However party B shouldn't have been such a muppet since he/she should have been able to assess the situation before said incident. Party B is guilty in my eyes and the eyes of the law.
Shorty Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I don't remember him saying what party he belonged to or even that he was actually involved.The bias against Party A and trying to blame things like 'wobbliness' suggested that ReZ is, or is siding with, Party B It's Party B's fault. Precarious positioning doesn't excuse lack of cautiousness.
Stalin Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I don't remember him saying what party he belonged to or even that he was actually involved. Your also being quite harsh. He knows it's his fault, otherwise he wouldn't be worrying about it and posting on here would he? Deffo guilty Rez lad.
Slaggis Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Party A's fault! I mean if you're stupid enough to leave a phone around like that then you're asking for trouble. Party B just happened to be the one that accidentally knocked it off, but anyone could have, inlcuding Party B. If you cared for the phone that much you wouldn't leave it lying around like that would you? Definitely Party A's fault.
Daft Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Whose "small draw unit made of straw" is this? Party A's or B's?
CoolFunkMan Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Party B, although party A was asking for it. However party B shouldn't have been such a muppet since he/she should have been able to assess the situation before said incident. Party B is guilty in my eyes and the eyes of the law. I kind of agree with this tbh. However, I think it's six to one and half-a-dozen to the other in this case. Okay, so party B should have been more careful. However, Party A should have kept their phone in a safer place, so both are equally to blame. And this is the reason I have my phone insured, you never know that might happen.
ReZourceman Posted November 19, 2007 Author Posted November 19, 2007 (It is Party As unit) Yeah. I realise I am partly at fault, but seriously the phone literally is 3/4s on and 1/4 off on top of a wobbly as frag thing, with a PINT glass (Ie huge top) of water right below it Lol, so foolish of Party A. (I dont have my phone insured....Because I trust myself to not be foolish. If I get mugged etc, then new phone I guess...No worries)
Daft Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 (It is Party As unit) Take That!! Well since it is Party A's unit Party A would have no reason to arrange his/her belongings in preparation for anyone else's use. Unless Party A gave explicit consent. Phoenix Wright rocks!
Shino Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Who cares, just try to solve it with party A.
ReZourceman Posted November 19, 2007 Author Posted November 19, 2007 Party B has his own entire draw in Party As draw unit, and Party B uses it almost every day, which Party A is aware of.....how does that affect it.
Daft Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Party B has his own entire draw in Party As draw unit, and Party B uses it almost every day, which Party A is aware of.....how does that affect it. Well if Party A is aware that other Parties use the unit then it could be argued Party A knew the potential risk and chose to ignore it.
Guest bluey Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 *slams hands down on little desk* knowing the risks and ignoring them doesnt make party a guilty, just stupid; but for the actions of party b, the phone would not have moved ~ i suggest therefore that it is indeed party b's fault. p.s. daft - i love you \(^__^)/
Mundi Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 The both party´s are guilty as Party A left it there and didn´t do anything about it and Party B bumbing into without moving the cellphone away as to avoid it from falling into the pint of water
Guest bluey Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 BEHOLD!! party C!! the true culprit! (cue the dramatic-turn-of-events music!)
Daft Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 If Party A knew that the unit was going to be used then Party A should have secured said valuables. And now I will call my final witness!! Would you please point......uuurrrrmm....bark at the culprit? *Missile runs off* P.S. Best thread ever!!
jayseven Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I was involved in a similar "who was to blame" incident recently -- except it was my fault and I knew it immediately :P I trod on a friend's laptop screen that one could have argued was placed carelessly on the floor. But the fact is that it was an accident and I broke it. SO I paid for it. Just money in the end. Oh, but please continue the Phoenix-wright-ing
Brian Mcoy Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Mcoy thinks both parties were pretty stupid, but Mcoy also guesses one party is going to be left to pay for the mess.
ReZourceman Posted November 19, 2007 Author Posted November 19, 2007 We should actually do a Phoenix Wright game thread to be honest, the winner of each case makes the next case to be solved.
