Well at least you pursued that first lady. That is just terrible! I have always thought that if push came to shove the contract wouldn't amount to much. The only part having any weight for us would be the spay/neuter part (if it's a young puppy or kitten who leaves the shelter un-altered). That is only b/c it's state law (both in Georgia and Texas) that all animals adopted from a shelter or a/c facility must be "fixed." To me it's not about getting your legal rights in order, it's about conveying the seriousness to the adopting party and to formalize the adoption. It also helps keep record of each animal.
Personally, I don't think that judge is worth one cent and I hope someone dismisses him so easily one day. Jamie
