one-bite rule

Read a random definition: de parco fracto

A quick definition of one-bite rule:

The one-bite rule is a law that applies to cases where a person is bitten by a domesticated animal, like a dog. It says that the person who was bitten must prove that the owner of the animal knew or should have known that the animal was likely to hurt someone. If the person can prove this and the bite happened on the owner's property, the owner can be held responsible for the bite. Some states have changed or gotten rid of this rule.

A more thorough explanation:

The one-bite rule is a legal concept that often comes up in cases where someone is bitten by a domesticated animal, such as a dog. Under this rule, the person who was bitten must prove that the animal's owner knew or should have known that the animal had a tendency to bite or attack people. If the owner knew or should have known, they may be held responsible for the bite.

For example, let's say that a person owns a dog that has bitten someone in the past. If that person takes the dog to a public park and it bites someone else, the victim may be able to sue the owner under the one-bite rule. The victim would need to prove that the owner knew or should have known that the dog had a tendency to bite people.

It's important to note that the one-bite rule is not a universal law. Some states have modified or rejected the rule, and others have different laws that apply to animal bites. If you are bitten by an animal, it's important to speak with a lawyer who can help you understand your rights and options.
