This is not the first time that such a law has been considered in the county. The death of a 10-year-old boy in 2009 prompted the creation of “Justin’s Law,” which would have banned pit bulls in the area, but it was never passed. However, there are some laws regarding “dangerous dogs” that were enacted in 2007 by state legislators that penalize owners that keep animals that pose a threat to the community.
If you suffered physically and/or emotionally due to a dog bite and you suspect dog owner negligence played a role in your attack, contact the Lanier Law Group, P.A. today to set up a consultation with a North Carolina personal injury lawyer from our office now.
