[kimx123]

Studying Business law. Thanks for the help so far I am going to read up a bit more on for now, but it looks like you have pointed me in the right direction.

I agree with @Rod - it's a question of bailment.
About which you can read some useful stuff here.

Thanks Tim, would you be able to point me to some legislation or case law etc, that outlines this?

COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SYDNEY V. WEST (1966) 114 CLR 481
