Please check if my resolution is correct. In the case of the chainsaw owner, he had no direct involvement in the illegal activity, as he was not present when the operator was apprehended and was not in actual possession of the chainsaw. In his affidavit, he confirmed ownership and admitted its registration expired eight years ago, though he had not used it since his employment. While he lent the equipment for personal used but it was use without his knowledge or permission for illegal activities, he is still liable for failure to exercise due diligence by not informing the borrower of the expired registration or cautioning against its misuse, demonstrating negligence on his part.
