We had an accident last May 19 wherein we were hit by a motorcycle, the driver were brought to the hospital but died on May 21. We have the evidences which will prove that it is the motorcycle's fault, apparently the driver is drunk. To avoid inquest of my husband, we had amicable settlement and gave them 10k, we also promised to "help" them with hospital bills and burial once the driver died. Since we know that we are not at fault here, we wouldn't want to shoulder all the expenses and we are sure that eventhough they file a case they wouldn't win. We just wanted to avoid inquest of my husband since its weekends (no fiscal or government offices) and my husband cannot afford to take leave from the office. Since the person already died, does the investigators still has the right to arrest my husband without warrant? Until when can the other party file a case against us? Is there a specific period where they can only file a case, like 2 months after the incident happened?
What can you advise that we can do to ensure that after we helped them with their expenses, they will no longer ask money from us and will not file a case against us?
Thanks!
