    In the state of Michigan, can you sue someone for pain and suffering for taking the cremation ashes of their mother from their stepfathers home with his knowledge?

    Hello l:

    Maybe. I'd certainly ask for it. The worst that can happen is the judge says no. Small claims is quick, cheap and easy.

    You can sue for anything. Whether a court will award you this is another question. In this case, probably not; emotional "damages" or pain and suffering is awarded only under very extreme conditions and these don't cut it.
