Legal Question in Legal Ethics in Virginia
''Service Dog, My Arse!!''
So lets say that neighborhood restaurant that I frequent,( and which has strict rules regarding pets/animals, which is why I go there !!) decides to allow a patron with a ''SO CALLED 'Service Animal' '' into the restaurant. As a result I go into Anaphylactic shock.. And after using my EPI-PEN has to be rushed to the Hospital..., Whose fault is it? Is it my fault for knowing and appreciating the rules of the establishment I always go to? The Store Managers for bending the ESTABLISHED rules? Or the other patrons fault for forcing the manager to bend the rules because of discrimination ? My point is that ''You don't know , what you don't know!!''... Fine you have rights, but SO DO I !!!...and sorry to say... ''IT isn't all about YOU !!'' If you have a doubt, call ahead and ask!! or Go someplace gog friendly!!

Re: ''Service Dog, My Arse!!''
So, who may be liable for, perhaps, precipitating your anaphylactic shock and consequent damages?
On these few facts, I simply couldn't say.
