john Hayes and Lynn Magosian, auditors for a public accounting firm, went to lunch at the Bay View Restaurant in San Francisco. John left his raincoat with a coatroom attendant, but Lynn took her new raincoat with her to the dining room, where she hung it on a coat hook near her booth. When leaving the restaurant, Lynn discovered that someone had taken her raincoat. When John sought to claim his raincoat at the coatroom, it could not be found. The attendant advised that it might have been taken while he was on his break. John and Lynn sued the restaurant, claiming that the restaurant was a bailee of the raincoats and had a duty to return them. Are both John and Lynn correct

    John is correct but Lynn isn't

    Explanation:

    John is correct because he left his coat with the coatroom attendant under the premise that it would be properly looked after and returned to him when he was done having lunch at the restaurant. However, Lynn just left her coat lying around under no ones care or supervision, there wasn't a predetermined agreement that anyone would be responsible for watching it on her behalf, therefore I don't think she is has the right to sue.
