On February 6, 2017, your Carbon County dog attack lawyer provided an additional free analysis to the Lake Harmony pit bull attack victim. As Attorney Newell recommended, the investigating police officer charged the pit bull owner with “Harboring a Dangerous Dog” in violation of the PA Dog Law. The District Justice Hearing was held last week in Carbon County Pennsylvania.
Unfortunately, the presiding judge did not rule on the criminal charge, but instead informed those present that he desired to do some additional research on the Pennsylvania Dog Law before arriving at a decision. The Carbon County PA dog bite lawyer reviewed with the victim her potential legal options. If an appeal is filed after the D.J. ruling, a trial will be held in Jim Thorpe PA in front of a Carbon County Court of Common Pleas judge.
