as the livery from hell from round our neck of the woods did a vanishing act around 4 months or so ago - been chucked out of 5 yards in the previous 8 months it appears!
Oh dear, when will you people learn that you DO have a contract. Taking money for loan of a stable or grazing and facilities constitiutes a contract even where this is written down.We've ended up being duped into offering a 'port in a storm' to a livery by another local YO. Turns out they are certainly not the decent types she said they were!!
We need to get them off the yard ASAP for various reasons - not least of which is for the sanity of our other liveries.
We haven't given them a contract (which we would do in normal circumstances) as it was never going to a long term stay.
Problem is that they are extremely abusive/aggressive. Over the last few days I've had abusive texts and phone calls right up to late evening. She really is a vile woman.
I know people will say tie the horses outside the yard and lock the gate but I've a nasty feeling we'd end up breaching a law of some sort.
Can anyone offer advice on what to do to evict her from the yard? We've already told her she and her friends and family are not to come onto the yard - they can go straight to the field to do their horses but that's all.
We'll probably have to enlist the services of a solicitor - can anyone recommend one who is experienced in the sort of situation who is in the West Sussex area?
