I have had big horse issues with the police. They have taken * horses. First said I did not have any pasture land ( no one does with drought) then tried to say I had little water (told him I had * big tubs in the back pasture) the investigator did even know that was my property. He was there to take all my equine. But left * donkeys and a sheep. So much more to this story
Hello Dixie Lee Maddox, I'm sorry to hear about your situation. Animal seizure can be a complicated matter. Can you please provide me with your location so I can provide the most relevant information on animal seizure laws in your area?
Tired of waiting on Attorneys General to solve this issue. Just angry, I just want to sue the police. For all they are putting me through with no rights to do do
I understand your frustration, Dixie. To better assist you, may I know which state you're located in? The laws regarding suing the police vary by location.
Mississippi
I see you're in Mississippi. Here are some important points about suing the police:
- You may file a lawsuit for violation of civil rights under Section * of the Civil Rights Act.
- You must prove the police acted under "color of law" and violated your constitutional rights.
- Consult with a local attorney for personalized advice.
O they so have
I understand your frustration, Dixie. In Mississippi, it's crucial to have an experienced attorney when pursuing a lawsuit against the police. They can help you gather evidence, navigate the legal system, and represent your best interests.
Even going to my land when I am not home
I understand your concern, Dixie. In Mississippi, law enforcement officials generally need a warrant to enter private property without consent. Exceptions can exist, such as immediate danger or hot pursuit. Legal representation can help clarify your specific situation.
Coming to tell me I had to more my horses by Morning or I would be arrested for animal cruelty
I understand your situation, Dixie. In Mississippi, animal cruelty laws are rigorous. If your horses' welfare is deemed at risk, action may be taken. However, you have rights too. A local attorney will be able to advise you on the best course of action.
Said I had little water. I had water in the barn where they did not look
I see, Dixie. In Mississippi, providing adequate water is part of the necessary care for animals. If you can prove that your horses had access to water, it might strengthen your case. Have you documented this?
Mine come from a KILL oen
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "KILL oen", Dixie. Could you please clarify? Are you referring to a kill pen, where horses are often sent before slaughter?
Not looking the best when I get them
I understand, Dixie. Are you saying that the horses often arrive in poor condition because they come from a kill pen? This could potentially influence the perception of their care. Can you provide any documentation or evidence to support this?
Byes kill pen
I see, Dixie. You're saying the horses come from a "kill pen", which could explain their condition. In a lawsuit, this context is important. Documenting their condition upon arrival might help your case. Are you doing this?
