horse stabling costs dispute

Successful Outcome in Horse Purchase and Stabling Costs Dispute

Schelstraete Equine Law successfully represented our client in a dispute concerning the purchase of a horse, resulting in the rejection of the counterparty’s claims.

On June 17th 2015 the Court rejected the counterparties claims. Our client was summoned by her former business partner who wanted her to return to him a sum of ‘borrowed’ money. He stated that our client lent money from him to buy a horse. However, my client argued in front of the Court that she never borrowed any money from him and she bought the horse on his behalf.

Court Rejects Counterparty’s Claims

The Court agreed with our client’s position. The counterparty’s claims were rejected, and he was ordered to pay our client all outstanding stabling costs and related expenses, as our client had been taking care of his horse.

The outcome therefore confirmed our client’s position regarding the purchase of the horse and resulted in a successful resolution of the dispute.
