My mother was attacked without a cause by her psycho ex boyfriend. she was choked, punched and slammed against the walls. Luckily all she got were some bruises that have already started to heal. They are fading fast. She did try to defend herself and managed to literally almost bite a chunk of skin off the hand he was attacking her with.
She went to a lawyer and was told that she couldn’t sue for injuries that will heal in less than 2 weeks. his injury WILL take more than week to fully heal. now they are just fighting for custody of my half baby brother.
I don’t understand whats going on with that lawyer but by that logic i could go out and punch your mom and if she is only bruised and heals before 2 weeks, she cant sue for injuries.
I should also mention that this happened in Mexico. More specifically Tijuana.
In a way i know what the problem is already….(its Tijuana >_>) but on the other hand i am not familiar with Mexican laws to establish a valid reason of why she cant get compensation out of that a-hole!
he probably would’ve killed her if it wasn’t because she wasn’t alone at the time…so what the hell???
right i think im coming off wrong. its not that we want any financial gain from that, its just that the guy told us we cant just sue because its a bruise…..and even though maybe all she got were bruises and a swollen face, it was a full out attack on her. and there were witnesses! yet, he said we cannot do anything about it
also, we did call the police but the guy’s mommy came and took him away quick so they never had a chance to get him. i dont know what’s going on down there but it really does seem like somehow, someway, we got the shortest stick out of the bunch and we cant do anything but ALLOW the guy to see the kid when he does shit like that INFRONT of the kid. he’s only 5 :\
please guys forget about getting money for the bruise, that isnt my intent whatsoever even if it sounded like it. my point is just that we cant even sue for assault or battery in this case and i dont know why
yeah -_- think from now on the only thing we’re ever going there for again is just tacos. even then thats gonna be a pretty dangerous trip, lol.
