Stolen Horse--Man is BACK in jail!

Leasing is a common practice in horse rescue... It allows the horse to be placed in a prequalified home and returned to the rescue if things don't work out.... however there are cases....and I have had them where I need to get a sherrif and my supporting documents and retrieve my animal after a sale. I do of course offer to stand up in court against the person who sold my animal illegally. Usually a lot of publicity and well placed mail with the laws circled and send registered is enough to make the new owner stand up and take notice. I have been able to retrieved every horse. The real crime here is her not being able to get back her property after showing supporting documents. The sherrif should have been able to do a stand by while she went to retrieve Max. The whole thing shouldn't have taken more than a week to sort out... two if someone was napping. I retrieved my animal out of state this way just a year ago when I leased a pregnant mare for a dollar to a very well known city official. He was to keep the foal... Since it wasn't ever mine and under my care. He was to return the mare if he was ever done riding her. He resold her for a very large sum of money and I saw her on CL. I call the ppl selling her and showed supporting documents and some well stated laws regarding the matter in her state as well as mine. She wanted to get all nasty at first but within the week I imagine after talking to her lawyers consented for me to pick up BOTH animals she had bought from this fellow... not just one animal....I got another one as well because she was afraid of the law.... I believe she sued him, however I was never called to testify, which I told her I gladly would. I still have that horse. The lease thing... pretty binding... This isn't the first time I have had to retrieve a horse.... The law should be on Ropo's side.... I haven't seen her documents but if they are not too loose, she should prevail...

Is it this Friday that the judge goes out? Hope so we can't wait much longer, can we??

I'm trying to wait until tomorrow to call and see if there has been any visits or a verdict. I should know by Friday definitely, but I don't want to push too hard this time. They're all out to lunch until after 1:00PM (CST) so I'd have to wait until at least then today to call.

Give the DA a call to see if the judge has gone out to take a look at Max. You need to keep communication open.

You've been trying to get Max back since last August 09 - 9 LONG months ago. It's not being 'pushy'.

You never did say whether or not Michael was put on the stand and asked what he did with Max. Was he ever asked in court what he did with Max?

Let us know as soon as you know something RoPo and good luck!

Keeping fingers crossed ( and toes and legs and arms and eyes, and everything I can) for ropo and Max.

Pst! No names!!!!


No, the man was not put on the stand. I was the only one on the stand other than the deputy that was being questioned. The uncle gave his version of the story through questioning and ranting.

PST!

I am still waiting to hear the unpublished updates of the court. I sent you a pm as you requested. Could you please find some time and let me know? Your story was one of the first threads I saved and have followed faithfully. I also joined you on Facebook when you went there, but now can't seem to find you again....I will go back and find your page!
