What is the name of your state? MI
I don't know what to do. My son who just turned 18 this past summer asked me(his mother) if he could have a few friends over to celebrate his birthday. I agreed, even though I was not going to be there, as I had to work. I had just recently lost my husband(several months prior due to an instant heart attack).
Well, somehow the word spread about a party at my house. So, lots of kids showed up. This 21 year old kid showed up at the party(he was not invited) drunker than a skunk. He started a bunch of crap with my son and his friend's and all the other people that were not invited to my son's birthday celebration at our house. He instigated a fight with other people there, and ultimately got the crap beat out of him for his beligerance(sp). He ended up in the hospital and had to have plastic surgery on his face. After the fact, it was discovered that he had been kicked out of several bars prior to him showing up at my house.
Now, I am being sued by this kid that got the crap kicked out of him. First of all he was on my property, and not invited, and secondly the other kid's at my son's birthday party(who were also not invited are the one's that caused his injuries)
Why am I being sued and what can I do? I was not even there. I was working. Please help! I don't have money for an attorney at this time. My husband was 52 years old, and died of an instant heart attack while riding his dirt-bike. I have two kids to raise without a father.
