Can you be sued for money which was not given to you but was given to a friend?

In: Civil Lawsuits [Edit categories]

Answer:

Perhaps, it depends upon the nature of the transaction.

If you requested the money on behalf of the friend and received the money either by cash or a check or automatic deposit into your personal account you can be held liable for repayment of the debt. If the money was paid by the lender directly to the friend by he or she is liable for the debt.
