Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland
Are the dogs mine?
I bought two dogs my girlfriend did not pay a dime for them but she thinks she owns them. If we go to court who will get the dogs? Are there conditions?

Re: Are the dogs mine?
What was your intent when you purchased the dogs--to retain sole ownership, to give them to your girlfriend, or to share ownership? Who has been responsible for taking care of the dogs since then? The answers to these questions will determine who is entitled to ownership, although your having paid for them is also a factor.
