A jail or the municipality that runs the jail can be liable for conditons of confinement. You may have some issues with your case. For instance if Allen County detention center may have a grievance procedure that should have been followed during your confinement if you had knowledge of the illness. Additionally, it is very difficult to prove illness related to mold exposure.
If you have a doctor that told you your illness is related to the mold exposure, you may want to consult an attorney in your local area. This information is being provided for educational purposes only. |
