I would file a complaint with the insurance company...they need to be made aware of the situation so the mistake does not happen again.
This woman "could" have charges filed against her (if the family sees fit) because she opened first class mail that was not directly addressed to her. |
Thanks for this information. We do not want to charge her with anything at the moment b/c it could have been an accident and we are not out to get people like that. However, if she was to bring his medication up in court, then we would like to have some kind of documentation stating that she should have never opened his mail, so I'm not sure how to go about doing that. I guess I can call our lawyer and find out how to document it. We did already call the insurance and got all of that straightened out so it should not happen again. Thanks!
