re: OT Lawyers: Legal question regarding a phone and a dog!

They MAY have a claim under Civil Code article 2321. Doesn't seem like a strong one to me.
They would be misguided to make the claim for all the wise reasons the OT has expressed (excluding the Whiskey Tango comment.)

The girl left the phone out to be taken by the dog. If I were the homeowner I would hate your sister for suggesting payment.

Was the homeowner negligent in any way? I dont see it..... the dog was on her property and dogs naturally chew on things.

Agree.
And people have the gall to complain about lawyers?

Bleated ceaselessly by scumbag slip and fall attorneys across the country. Yea, well take the thing to court and try to recoup the $600.

I bet this pool was "above ground."

The reasonable thing to do would be explain that it's both their fault and ask if they wanna pitch in half for a new phone. But frick that.
Lawyer up with the most vicious son of a bitch you can find regardless of cost. Explain to them that it's not about the money anymore but the principle and that you will see them in court and will take everything they have. Even if they offer to pay for it, tell them that the only thing left for them to do is put the dog down and get a fricking attorney. Do not let this go. Maybe get an ad in the advocate calling them shitty home owners and make some anonymous calls to crime-stoppers regarding their possible meth lab.

Uh no. It isn't the dog owner's fault that some stupid kid left their phone lying near a pool where people were running around and playing and where a dog could get it.

If it was an adult who left their phone on a table outside and a dog ate it, it's the fricking dog's fault
No it isn't. It would be the dumbass adult's fault who placed their phone there.
People like you are pussies. Always looking for someone else to blame.

Do you not think a dog owner is responsible for the dog's actions?

Game this out.
They make a claim and get six hundred.
11 year old takes a raft of shite at school. Nobody invites her to parties anymore. She's collateral damage. She ends up a lonely alcoholic posting selfies on the OT. Is that what you want for your niece?
Case closed. Questions?

If the dog bites someone? Absolutely. If you are stupid enough to leave your shite laying around where there is a dog that might eat it? No.

I'll boil it down, based on my own thoughts and posts of others:
1) Your sisters a moran
2) Legal recourse is either shoddy at best, ill-advised, and definitely not worth it
3) That family is a bunch of tPOS's for not doing the noble thing and being open to help replace/compensate for the phone.

The fact that the phone is by the pool is also irrelevant. If the phone was left in the house on a counter and the dog destroyed it, is it the phone owners fault there too?
Can your dog destroy whatever it wants as long as it's on your property?

Absolutely wrong.... in most states you are not even liable for dog bites, if the dog is in a fence on your property ....and most pools are required to be fenced

Tell her to get over it. Crap happens.
Tell her to lock herself and daughter up in her own house if she thinks that everyone else should be responsible for these mishaps.

No it isn't because that is where the phone was left. If it is on table that is reachable to a dog that would eat something, it is your own fault.

I have a well behaved golden retriever. I can leave a steak on the edge of the counter and go to the gym and the steak will be there when I get back. So, since you asked me personally, no, my dog couldn't destroy whatever it wanted.
If you don't like those rules then don't fricking come over. The question was does his dumbass SIL have any recourse. The answer is no. If the owner doesn't want to pay, they don't have to and there is no way in shite they have any recourse.

They're not even offering to help/split the cost?
I obviously didn't read the thread yet, but I'm going to now. I'm sure this has been asked.
