Looking for and people who have been involved in legal cases involving equine law for quick pre-query research.
That's a fact.... damn hayburners (I have three, so I can say it).ColoradoGuy said:once a cribber, kicker, bolter, always a cribber, kicker, bolter
The same is true in Colorado. However, if you run down an animal on open range (and many highways go through such areas -- there are warning signs), you are responsible for whatever happens, not the animal's owner. In fact, you need to pay the owner for loss of the animal, be it horse, cow, or sheep.MacAllister said:Essentially, you post a sign on your premises with a copy of the equine statute (Horses are dangerous, you could be bit, kicked, stepped on, crushed to death, or fall off and break bones and stuff, you're on this facility messing with these horses at your own risk and now you've been so informed--MT Statute yadda yadda)--and you're pretty much covered, except in cases of clear negligence on your part.

I belive that ultimately the owner of the ah, sire, was given possession of the colt.
