Sueing For Hospital Bills?


So my hospital bills have been piling up. I was in an abusive relationship and only once went to the hospital. I did not have insurance at this time. The police came to the hospital and took a report down but i never pressed charges. Now i have thousands of dollars in bills. Can i sue him for the bills since his information is on the report? And how would i go about doing so????

Masterfully stating the obvious to the oblivious! (Thanks SP!)

I don't see how you can. There's no proof -- just your word in a report and then you refused/failed to press charges. You weren't married. He has no obligation to pay your bills.

Stand by for those more experienced in these matters to answer.
