Malicious Prosecution, Wrongful Arrest, DeKalb County

K.G. was involved in a car wreck. While her minivan was being repair, she rented a vehicle. Several delays led to her extending her rental time, but once her car was repaired, K.G. returned the vehicle. Somehow, the vehicle was not recorded as returned. Many weeks later the vehicle was reported stolen by the rental company. K.G. was later on arrested and jailed for 24 hours. The rental company soon learned the rental was in fact returned weeks before they reported it stolen.

Andrew decided to pursue a lawsuit against the rental company. Twelve months later K.G. was awarded $235,000 for the error of the business.
