I had two hoses hooked up to my trailer, one fresh water supply and the other to the black water rinse. He turned off the valve that supplies water to two spigots. He turned the spigot to the black water rinse on, the fresh water supply was still open, and left the main valve off. I turned the main vale back on allowing fresh water to the unit. He trespassed on my legally rented space, disconnected my equipment and left it in an altered state. My wife was in the unit and he made no effort to request trespass permission.
As far as this being my fault and the insurance denying the claim, I would compare that idiotic statement to having a car bomb planted in my truck and then saying it was my fault for starting the truck and causing the explosion. Please be realistic in your reply or do not waste the space in this thread.
Since they were performing maintenance and are the management of the property, there is no way they were trespassing. And if they had turned off the a main valve (not the standard spigot at your site) and you subsequently turned it back on, I would say the liability is totally on you. Insurance companies are not going to pay claims based on anybody's word, especially if you are talking about multiple thousands of dollars. They are going to investigate, take statements and if they find that the park had shut down a water line for service and injured party had turned it back on without permission things are going to get sticky at best.
That is being realistic and since you don't own or operate this forum, the use of space on the thread is really not your concern.
