[RC] rider sanctioning/litigation against ride vet - Double 8 Ranch
Rather than sanctioning a non-member for a rule infraction I
have another question relative to the sanctioning of a member for the
following:
A rider sues a ride vet. It goes into litigation. The vet?s malpractice
insurance represents him/her. AERC is aware but ?does nothing.? Doesn?t matter
how the case is decided because the insurance company will do what?s in their
best interest.
What matters to me is the smaller picture of a rider actually bringing suit
against a ride vet but what does this mean for ALL of our rides vets???
Then, does a ride manager have the ?right to refuse entry? to the rider who
brought the litigation? Does the ride manager who is ?employing? this ride vet
allowed to refuse entry to this rider in the future? If the answer is ?no? the
vet could very well walk out, leaving no vet for the entire
ride.
