My dog was attacked we emptied our bank account to pay the bill because the owner of the other dogs couldn't pay upfront. I got a fundraiser to help us in our time of need. Now she feels she doesn't have to cover the full amount. Is she still entitled to pay the full amount?
To be "entitled" is to have the right. She has the "right" to pay but NOT the obligation. The fundraiser collected money for the dog's vet bills. That money MUST be used to pay the vet. She is obligated to pay ONLY the shortfall between what you raised and what you... Read more »

There is no criminal conduct in what you described. Cease all communications with them. There is no money to refund.
The proximate cause theory of liability was used to convict somebody; what must the plaintiff prove before the paints can use proximate cause theory as basis for his/her case?
One way is to establish that whatever happened was reasonably foreseeable given the Defendant's actions or failure to act.

Son was jailed for DV, bailed out, as a court date 10/26. Was informed today9/8 that there's a jury trial set for 1/2021. His ex-gf/ babies mother has told me she isnt filing charges. Has the state picked it up and besides obtaining a lawyer what should we be doing?
