Legal Question in Business Law in Florida

What can I do? My sons DSI XL was stolen at my gym after the general manager spoke to me and told me she would put it aside until I could pick it up. She let other staff member's children play with the DSI and when I came back to pick it up a few days later someone had stolen it. Can I make her or the business reimburse me for the DSI.

Your legal rights regarding the personal property depend on any related provisions in your customer contract, customer policies in writing or on posted signs, employee statements which you can confirm, or similar evidence. Otherwise, such businesses are not responsible

for personal property unless it is placed by a customer in a locker, or similar situations.

I think you are out of luck . . . . particularly since you left it there for several days after being told it was available for pickup.
