Description
Appellant Gregory Scott Weekly (plaintiff) appeals from judgment in favor of defendant-appellee, the City of Mesa (the City),*fn1 on his claim for strict liability pursuant to A.R.S. § 11-1025 (the dog bite statute) for injuries plaintiff received from being bitten by a police dog while being arrested. The only issue raised on appeal is whether the legislative amendment to A.R.S. § 11-1025, enacted after the occurrence here, which excepts the use of police dogs from strict liability under the dog bite statute, is applicable. We conclude that the amendment constituted a change in the law that applied only prospectively, and that the trial court erred in granting the City's motion to dismiss plaintiff's strict liability claim based on this amendment.
