There exists no written contract for the boarding or training of said horse, 7. Since May 31, 1992, Plaintiff has paid various amounts billed by Defendants, in exchange for boarding and training services for said horse, 8. Since May 31, 1992, Plaintiff has provided extensive carpentry and miscellaneous construction services for Defendants, as agreed upon by the parties, and having a totai vaiue greater than the services provided by Defendants for said horse. 9, At present, Plaintiff does not owe any money to Defendants in connection with services provided for said horse. 10. The services provided to Plaintiffs horse have been in violation of the agreement reached by the parties in that: a, The horse has suffered numerous heaith problems due to the inadequate boarding practices of Defendants; b. The horse is to date st1ll not trained in the manner expected under the agreement of the parties. 11. Since March 3, 1994, Plaintiff has made repeated demands to Defendants for the horse to be returned to him, These demands have been through Plaintiffs own effons and those of his counsel. 12, Defendants to date have continued to refuse to return to Plaintiff the horse named "Joker," 13. Defendants to date have notified Plaintiff that he is not allowed to enter on the property of Defendants to remove the horse, 2 14. Defendants have made repeated threats that they intend to sell Plaintiffs horse in exchange for moneys claimed by Defendants to be due them by Plaintiff. 15. Defendants have not disputed that Plaintiff is the rightful owner of sald horse. 16, Plaintiff owns various items of personal propeny which are currently in the possession of Defendants, including: a, Hydraulic Jack; b, Rare Hawk Video Cassette; c, Security Camera and monitoring system; and d, Saddie Girth, 17, Plaintiff has made repeated demands upon Defendants and their counsel for the return of his personal propeny. 18, To date, Defendants have refused to return to Plaintiff his personal propeny or to allow Plaintiff access to Plaintiffs propeny. 19. There exists no valid lien or other legal document allowing Defendants to maintain possession of Plaintiffs personal propeny and horse, 20. While Defendants claim to have once provided Plaintiff with a receipt, indicating that he could not gain return of his horse if any amounts were due, Plaintiff denies having ever received such a receipt until this recent dispute arose, and funher denies that such a receipt would act as a valid contract since it is unilateral in nature, not imposed until after the agreement of the parties had been effectuated and services had 3 been provided, and would allow Defendants the unilateral ability to state that money is due and owing them, without recourse of Plaintiff, other than court action. 21. Despite Defendants' repeated threats to do so, the receipt referenced above does not purport to grant Defendants the right to sell Plaintiffs horse. 22. Despite Defendants' repeated refusal to return Plaintiffs Items of personal property, the receipt referenced above does not purport to grant Defendants any right to retain Plaintiffs personal property. WHEREFORE, for the above reasons, Plaintiff respectfully requests of this Court that It direct Defendants to Immediately return to Plaintiff the horse, "Joker" and the personal property described above, that Defendants be directed to return to Plaintiff all moneys pald to Defendants in connection with the boarding and training of said horse, for fallure of Defendants to provide the services promised, that Defendants be directed to pay to Plaintiff punitive damages for their wrongful withholding of Plaintiffs horse and personal property, and that Defendants be directed to pay Plaintiffs reasonable attorneys fees, costs, and expenses connected with this litigation, due to Defendants' bad faith actions leading to this litigation.

This petition rsquests that the Defendants be directed to return to Plaintiff his horse and personal property, currently being held by Defendants, for the following reasons: 1. Plaintiff hereby incorporates the verified allegations made in his Complaint in Equity, filed on this same date. 2. Since the demand by Plaintiff on March 3, 1994 for return of his horse, and continuing to the present date, Defendants have refused to return to Plaintiff his horse, "Joker." 3.
