What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
My daughter was raped on January 16, 2009. She was 16 at the time, and the defendant was 17 at the time. The attack occurred at the home of his parents while they were not present.
The defendant was found guilty by a jury in April of 2010. He was sentenced to 2-12 years. He is currently out on appeal to the Michigan Supreme Court (original appeal failed at the appellate level).
Can the victim bring an action for pain/suffering/emotional trauma, etc., against the parents because the attack took place in their home?
Thank you.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
