Legal Question in Education Law in Utah

Stealing

Okay i am not a lawyer. but this one

is driving me up the wall. Okay so if

my friend takes my ipod from my

house without my permission, then

loses it. Does he have to pay for a

brand new one, and pay for the case

that was on it?

If you dont press criminal charges, which are separate and distinct, your "friend" is responsible for the replacement value of the item, its case and the value of the music that you had on the ipod.
