Caitlyn's car was stolen between 3 and 4 am. She called us after filing a report. Bless her heart, just about everything she had was in that car.

So. That's how my day started.

Happy Thursday.

Wow! I'm so sorry that happened to her. I hope they catch the perps and get her car back in one piece.

It's still raining! It's been more than 24 hours of almost continuous rain. It's rained at least 20 of the last 24 hours. *sigh* Would someone make it stop, please?

 No. Clothing, wise. 

She was switching out winter for summer stuff, that kind of thing.

She's going to need new clothes.

Thanks.

I'm just praying this gets her out of there.

That is too bad Lily. Believe me she doesn't want the car found. More of a headache. Does she have insurance?

 Because of the mess the thieves will have undoubtedly done to it and the hassle she will go through with the ins company when they think that damage she claims may have already existed.  I've been through it.  The thieves don't care about the transmission or engine and will race it and that damage won't be realized until later, well after the ins claim has been settled.

 Ah. Didn't think about any of that. Good to know.

It's had liability. The insurance was halted this morning.

 Whoa, but if the thieves get in an accident or such, Caitlyn will be responsible if no insurance.

 The car is on its last leg, anyway.

By doing this, and the tag has been suspended, too, it's more likely to get spotted. 

Because it was reported stolen, and the insurance halted, and the tag suspended, if they get in an accident, we are not responsible for any damages. 

To anyone or their property. 

The car had liability. It won't cover the car. Just anyone else that got hit.

But now, if there is a wreck, it won't be on our insurance .

While my husband was still in high school, it was a bright red Baja bug. The police found the shell of his vehicle the next day stripped of the engine, wheels, transmission and even the seats.

I’m so sorry this happened to Caitlyn, I hope she will be able to get another car.

 That is all kinds of messed up. It's not her fault her car got stolen.

Reminds me of criminals being able to sue you if they get hurt on your property. Stupid laws.

 I know!  But in this case you are talking about people or property the thieves damage. Those people are victims just as Caitlyn is.

We've taken the steps to make sure Caitlyn is not responsible for any damages caused by the thieves.

There is an intervening criminal act by a third party. Caitlyn will not be responsible.

Unfortunately, in this area, people can go after the insurance. Not sure if the deductible has to be paid by the owner.

 They are but Caitlyn isn't the one who caused them to be victims.

 Try living in an area where the one with the deepest pockets are made to pay up, ie the insured and their insurance company.  It isn't right, but happens all the time.

 I hear ya. Same thing happens when one party hires an unscrupulous lawyer. Makes me see red whenever crap like that happens.

Money talks, bs walks.
