The judge you work for has asked you to do some research in preparation for a divorce case that includes a dispute over a much-loved family dog. She wants you to do the following:

• Determine if there are any statutes in your state that are relevant to determining the legal status of pets.
• Determine if there are any cases in your state that would have bearing on this matter do not limit yourself to divorce cases.

Locate and read at least TWO (2) articles on the topic and provide the judge with a summary of the different arguments that are presented in terms of how pets should be treated in a divorce case. The articles can be from any state, if related to the topic. You MUST list the name of the 2 articles at the end of your assignment.

I'm a bit confused on this particular assignment. It is for Family Law LGLA 1355-52001
