Pint-Sized Pooch Leads To Big Time Lawsuit

February 27, 2009

New York attorney Paulette Taylor wants $500,000 in damages because the barking of her neighbor’s two Chihuahuas is causing “emotional and physical distress.”  The neighbor “may even be guilty of inciting his Chihuahuas to bark.”  Both the owners of 382 Central Park West and the building’s managers were also named in the suit.
