Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Oklahoma
Loose livestock
I have called our sheriffs department many times over the past three years to report one of the neighbors� equines being loose and on our property. Because of the neighbors less than ''good'' behavior (I�m worried what might happen when there is no one here at our house), I don't want to file a law suite against them-even though we have suffered property loss, i.e. horse feed and hay. What are my options? Does the sheriff have a legal obligation to keeping their animals away? It has become a safety hazard due to the animals being on the road and there are no equine coggins papers on these animals. I live in Atoka, Oklahoma.
Thank you

Re: Loose livestock
What are your monetary damages? Any other damages? You could send a demand letter (from your atty) or make claim vs. their insurance.
Otherwise you either have to sue or just complain about it.
