I live in California.
I gave this ring to this girl on the terms of a firm commitment. Well after 1 month of giving it to her she left. It wasn't intended in anyway as a gift and I firmly said this, but I didn't think of putting it in writing, and she verbally agreed that the ring was for a commitment. Since the break up, she has said that she will return the ring to me. I have txt logs, and emails stating this. I have all the receipts for the ring also. I gave her 1 month to find it because she said she misplaced it somewhere. 1 month has pass by after I gave her deadline to return it. She nows says she lost it even before we broke up. She lied about misplacing it somewhere, instead of saying she completely lost it.
Since she said she will return it, but now has lost it. Could I sue her for the value of the ring? I doubt she lost it, but w/in that 1 month period I think she sold it.
Thanks.
