What will you do about this funny case?

A donkey at an Algerian market ate the money of a man who came to buy him, making the unfortunate buyer and the owner wonder who the animal belongs to, an Algerian newspaper reported.

Al Shuruk al Yawmi, a newspaper published in the northern Algerian town of Tizi Ouzou, said the customer and the seller were traditionally bargaining for price for too long and failed to notice the donkey consuming the stack of banknotes meant as a payment for him.

Neither the Tizi Ouzou district court nor the city court were able to make a ruling that would satisfy both parties, so the case was passed on to the Algerian Supreme Court in the hope that it will resolve the bitter dispute.

Then what's your idea about this case?

I would say who ever was the dumbass to put their money out where the donkey could eat deserves to pay the donkey owner again if he really wants the animal. The donkey owner never really got paid if the donkey ate the money. This seems pretty cut and dry to me.

I'd have to agree...the seller never received payment so the gentlemen wanting to buy the animal needs to pay for the animal again. It's not like in a day or so they can get the money back...at least I wouldn't think so...
