Q: How can I retrieve my clothes and sue for inconvenience in Michigan?
I left some clothes at someone's house in Macomb County, Michigan, and now they are avoiding giving them back to me. They initially said I could live there, but it turns out they lied. I stayed there for a few days, but now they won't let me retrieve my belongings. I've asked them to leave my clothes outside in a bag, but they haven't responded. I also want to explore the possibility of suing them for wasting my time and holding onto specific clothes that I needed. How can I get my clothes back and pursue legal action?
