To elaborate, one friend was out of town and while he was gone his roommates used the master key to unlock his room to play some music (which had never bothered the person before) and then they left to go out and while they were gone this kids room was robbed. Now, before leaving his roommates shut his door but didn't lock it. When they got back his computer, game cube and a lot of other valuble things were stolen. Well his roommates offered him $1600 (which was all they had) to replace it, but this kid wants MONEY and the full value of his stuff NEW. He wants $1800 for his computer, when it's only worth about $700 now, and he basically wants them to pay what he paid for everything, even though the stuff was a few years old. My main question is, what are his roommates responsible for legally? If this kid took his roommates to court, what would the judge think they are responsible for?
