If the Sheriff had a warrant to seize the dogs then it was valid. If they were claiming animal cruelty, then they may be able to seize them without a warrant. If they were a breed of dog not allowed in the location you lived, they could seize them without a warrant.  Since you were not charged with a crime it is not clear the basis for the seizure.  That said, if they were impropoerly seized, you might have a civil claim of action against the Sheriff and / or Humane Society for the value of the dogs that were not returned. To pursue such a claim, it is mandatory that you file a "Notice of Claim" under the proper statute within 182 days fo when the dogs were seized. It has to be filed with the proper entity and in the proper way. The County or City where you live MAY have information on their website on how to do that - the City of Boulder does have such information on their website, for example.

How much should I ask for on my slip and fall personal injury case?

Answered by attorney Josh Lamborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at The Law Office of Josh Lamborn, P.C.
Since you have told me in your question that you are represented by counsel I am ethically forbidden from communicating with you on the subject matter of the representation. I would not be able to answer the question anyway as there are too many things I do not know about your case to tell you whether $80k is enough or not enough. Ask your lawyer what he or she thinks and have your lawyer sit down and explain to you why that is their professional opinion. You should be able to trust your lawyer to do this for you.

Am I liable to pay for medical bills incurred from a car accident?

Answered by attorney Donald Keith Broad (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Broad Law Firm, LLC
In Indiana, cases such as this are governed by the Comparative Fault Act which requires that the fault of all involved parties be compared. You would only be liable for whatever percentage of fault is assigned to you. That percentage of her medical bills (any and all medical bills incurred because of the accident) would be your liability.
