Liability and Compensation: What to Do?

Questioner

The neighbor's daughter is turning 14 and is having a party at home. The birthday girl's parents decide not to stay home. 20-30 teenagers are coming. In addition to this group of invitees, more than ten uninvited boys also come to the party. They stay on the sidewalk but cause a lot of noise, mess and especially (and this is what it's all about) damage to the car of other neighbors. Who is liable for this damage? Who should pay for the repairs?

Lawyer

The uninvited boys are in principle liable for the damage or their parents if they are younger than 14. They must then also pay for the damage. For further assistance you can send me a private message by clicking on the link in this answer.

Thanks for your quick response. Unfortunately, it is not possible to determine who caused the damage.
