§ 60-01-32 — Character of liability - Limitations

The liability of the keeper of a hotel for the loss of or injury to personal property placed by
hotel guests under the keeper's care, other than that described in sections 60-01-29 through
60-01-31, shall be that of a depositary for hire. Such liability, in no case, shall exceed the sum of
one hundred fifty dollars for each trunk and its contents, ten dollars for each box, bundle, or
package and its contents, and fifty dollars for all other miscellaneous effects, including wearing
apparel and personal belongings, unless the hotelkeeper has consented in writing with such
guest to assume a greater liability. If the loss or injury is caused by a fire not intentionally
produced by the hotelkeeper or the hotelkeeper's servants, the hotelkeeper is not liable.
