Can I be sued for a dog bite?

Mark Joseph Leonardo
Answered by attorney Mark Joseph Leonardo (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Dordick Law Corporation
Heres the applicable statute: Civil Code section 3342(a) The owner of any dog is liable for the damages suffered by any person who is bitten by the dog while in a public place or lawfully in a private place, including the property of the owner of the dog, regardless of the former viciousness of the dog or the owner's knowledge of such viciousness. A person is lawfully upon the private property of such owner within the meaning of this section when he is on such property in the performance of any duty imposed upon him by the laws of this state or by the laws or postal regulations of the United States, or when he is on such property upon the invitation, express or implied, of the owner. Since the victim came onto your property uninvited hes probably a trespasser. That would be the defense. If you have homeowners insurance it should cover you and pay for any medical expenses for the victim, regardless of fault under the med-pay provisions, assuming your policy has one.

How long do I have to sue a school for a personal injury?

Mark Joseph Leonardo
Answered by attorney Mark Joseph Leonardo (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Dordick Law Corporation
You did not say how old you are now. The time limit to file a tort claim against the school is 6 months. So that has probable lapsed. As to the boys that did it, you can sue them and their parents (parents liability is limited to a certain amount by statute) and you have 2 years from your 18th birthday to do so.
