Is that property damage now?

A good friend of mine visited me last weekend. I had some milk in a cup on my desk, so the milk wouldn't actually get to my PlayStation if it tipped over or something like that.

The good friend who just visited yesterday, put the cup down differently and then probably accidentally spilled it. All the milk then went to the PlayStation. He didn't just dry the PlayStation but the floor.

Now I notice that the PlayStation is fully glued and so on. I can hardly use them anymore, only if I would buy games in the store - the buttons to release the disc can no longer be pressed. And the Playstation also no longer accepts discs, so. Is it now damage to property and / or would the insurance company pay the whole or how does it work now? I'm very confused.

I have already asked him about it, he thinks to deny that he broke the PlayStation. Is that true now or is it not the fault of anyone here?

If his parents have personal liability insurance, he pays for the damage. (the children are also insured there)

You can of course ask the "friend" to pay compensation. (Value)

However, if he simply denies it, he can say that you did it yourself.

Then there's a statement against a statement.

Certainly not, if the "friend" already said he wasn't.

Maybe he'll admit it if he knows that the parents don't have to pay anything.

Yes, it is. I would sit down with your friend and find a solution.

But put the cup differently and then has it
probably accidentally spilled.

You have to prove that he is at fault. If you are not able to do this, you can't make him liable for the damage.

What fault? If he knocked over the cup, he is liable. This friend would no longer come to my apartment.

You have to read exactly what the questioner wrote.

I had a friend in the party, but he didn't see anything, it's just audio

No, this is not damage to property.

If he did the damage (which you would have to prove to him if he doesn't admit it), he would be obliged to compensate you.

No it is not. He writes that it happened accidentally. Take good care of your studies in the future…

You're right!

Unfortunately I only scanned the question.
