What damages can Safeway seek for refusal to pay settlement demand for shoplifting meat to Palmer, Reifler & Associates, P.A.?
Firstly, this was a huge error in judgement and will never be repeated as a result of this incident with store security. The merchandise was recovered in resellable condition and restocked. No injuries or property damage occurred. No police report was made. Value of meat was $8.00. Law firm demands $300. How can a company like Safeway take one to court for $8.00 worth of cheese unlawfully removed from the store when it was recovered, restocked and likely sold, much less demand $300 restitution?
