Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Texas
Car vs Horse
I was traveling home the other night and drove up on some loose horses. They had gotten out of a fence and were in the hwy. The police came, a report was made. The woman claimed responsibility saying it was her horse and that she had insurance coverage. I now find out she doesn't have insurance (after calling her company) So now I am left with a 3,500 in auto damages. We weren't hurt except for a pain in my neck. I had my blind grandaughter with me that in scared to now ride in the car. My 4 yr old grandaughter was left at home and now cries when she is left at home or is refusing to ride anywhere. I can file on my auto insurance but was wondering just where does this horse owners liability lay?

Your ins. co. will be more than able to sue the horse owner if there is money to be made by doing so.
