    Apologies for this shameless plug - but a story will air on CBS/NY Ch 2 news tonight Nov 12 at 11, repeated tomorrow Nov 13 at 5, about a pet custody case I recently resolved in Bergen County Chancery Division. My client's dog is the real star, not me.

    For those out of the NY viewing area, it will also be available on www.cbsnewyork.com.

    Was it a dog of a case? Or perhaps was it for the birds?

    I wasn't able to watch it on TV, and don't see a link to the piece on the NY CBS News site.  If you find it, let me know.

    Here it is, Leslie:

    The piece is talking about the pet as "property", but I think there was a trial division case a while back wherein the judge handled it like a parenting plan case. If it wasn't a reported case, it was certainly publicized.
