in any case, how old is your son? if he's old enough they'll chase him for it, but seeing as you have tried to get the window repaired and have gone to the trouble of having the glazier out etc and the window was broken BEFORE they moved in and there was enough time for it to be sorted at YOUR expense
in any case, i'd write them a polite letter in return asking wtf they are talking about, at least you haven't ignored them but at the same time you are not implicating yourself in the matter either
It was a hand written note and delivered to the house. It was recieved by the old owner because she tried calling.
My son is 7.
well then, you have nothing to worry about

as the window was broken while the house was unoccupied, it is up to the seller/buyer to work out who is going to pay for it, not to involve outside agencies
i would put the blame firmly on the seller, how else would the new owners find out who had broken th window? and why else would she not bother going out to it
seems like a case wehre she hasn't been arsed, the new owners have billed her for the window, she's though "sod that, i'll pass this on" and then thats how they've found out about your part
if it's a bunch of kids larking baout and a window gets broken, how do you know it wasn't one of the other kids and they have blamed your lad?
