Re: personal belongings
Make a formal written demand for the return of your bird, offering to compensate this someone for any costs which he or she may have incurred in caring for the bird.
Then, if the person continues to refuse to return your property(the bird), file what's called a warrant in detinue in your local general district
court for the return of your property, or, in the alternative, a judgment for its fair market value against the wrongful withholder.
