Of course it matters. And I don't see the point of stating the obvious like it is his property and is should not be touched. But it is pointless to say that. The real question is whether the airline has to answer for it. It is like if you are on a Greyhound bus and you leave your bag on board during a rest stop, is Greyhound responsible. No, you did not hand them your bag. If you enter a museum and you check you briefcase at the bag check room, and on it being handed back to you it is broken open and things are missing, they are responsible because they become a bailee having accepted it for safekeeping. But if you put your briefcase down on the floor of the museum and go to the washroom and come back to find it broken into, the museum is not responsible. The airline did not fail in anything here, Judge. Case closed.
