What is the name of your state?
Idaho
New Years eve a girl came up to me (who was one of my buddy's girlfriend's friend) in a parking lot and asked me if she could start my sled i said yeah then she asked if she could ride it real quick she and two friends got on and took off went up on the road and came back they stopped by me and my two friends and asked if we had goggles? I told the girl to get off my sled because i was going to ride it down to the cabin she told me no and said that i could walk. Two witnesses heard me say this. then she took off on it an lost control immediately and crashed it into a telephone pole. She went to the hospital and ended up with no injuries. However my sled got 4100 dollars in damage (estimated by a repair shop.) I had insurance on it but it only covered the loan. The sled is worth about 5000 the insurance company totaled it out and only paid off the loan of 2200 bucks. I tried to get the girl and her family to pay me the rest of repairs which was 1900. Her dad told me to go to hell. And to have my lawyer call him. So what course of action should i take. Is this considered theft. Should try small claims or get a lawyer and sue them through other courts. what are my chances what do you folks suggest
Thanks
