I reside in Orange County, CA and live in an apartment. In March, I woke up to start studying for an exam and went to the restroom. I go to wash my hands and i feel something on my foot. I jump back and bend down to see what it was. I saw a rather large black snake crawling up into the bathroom cabinet. I go outside of the bathroom and shut the door. My parents called 911 because the snake bit me on my foot. When the paramedics arrived, they said it was probably left from the previous owner, since I live on the third floor! The doctor who took care of me in the ER said the same thing, as did the animal control woman who had to tear down the bathroom wall to get to the snake.
Now that you know the background information, my question is, can I hold the apartment owner/landlord accountable for the hospital charges? My medical insurance will not pay for the paramedic bill or the actual hospital bills. Is there any way I can get the landlord to pay for it, legally?
I would appreciate any help! I am a poooor student and cannot afford to pay for these bills!
Thank you!
