§ 3922. Challenge by pet dealer or pet shop
A pet dealer or pet shop may contest a demand for reimbursement, refund, or exchange
under section 3921 of this title by requiring the consumer to produce the cat, dog, or wolf-hybrid for examination
by a licensed veterinarian of the pet dealer or pet shop’s designation. If the consumer
and the pet dealer or pet shop are unable to reach an agreement under the provisions
of this section within ten business days of an examination, the consumer may initiate
an action in a court of competent jurisdiction in the locality where the consumer
resides to obtain a refund, exchange, or reimbursement. Nothing in this section shall
limit the rights or remedies that are otherwise available to the consumer under any
other law. (Added 2013, No. 30, § 6.)
