thank you for your consideratye responses.
The conclusions reached so far is 'the bank would not be liable' for dogs trespassing on their property. go figure.I often wonder if and when lenders or other private parties in ownership erect security fences for 'security'. This bank owned property does not.
The bank does not have the dogs there for any reason, they belong to a neighbor who lets them run free so they can go into the atttack mode whenever they are so motivated.
Frankly, I don't trust any dogs as they are still animals subject to abrupt dangerous behavior. Pit bulls in my estimated earned their reputation.
We dealt with it by calling 911, which brought the police who called animal control. 'good bye, dog'. But, the owners have 'the right' to pick up their wayward dog by paying fines/fees.
FYI, this happened in San Diego. Imo, in certain areas of the city there are those who take the position that Pit Bulls are better protection than the police dept.
I am currently seeking a civil actions lawyer to bring suit for being attacked and causing not only duress but physical injury. My objective is to find a successful 'dog attack' lawyer who will take the case on contingency.
Ironically, the people who own the house where the dogs live hold title in their personal names and it is free anc clear. Interesting, isn't it.
