Loss or Deterioration of the Thing. - 1. Principle
(2)
He shall also be liable for any loss or deterioration caused by a person whom he has authorized to make use of the thing, even temporarily.
#(3)
However, where he derives no profit from the thing and he has taken charge of it in the sole interest of the owner, the holder shall not be liable for the loss or deterioration of the thing unless it is due to his own default or occurs after he has been summoned to return it. The holder shall not be at fault unless he exercised less care in keeping and preserving the thing than he exercises in the custody and preservation of his own property.
