    Return of engagement ring in Florida
    What is the law in Florida on engagement ring return? Any current case law? I can only find Gill v. Shively 1975. Woman was made to return ring as he broke the engagement.

    I have ex-fiance (who is married to someone else) suing me in civil court for return of ring from 3 years ago (which was sold before suit filed).

    Any current case law known for Florida?

    Mistake, he got ring back in Gill v. Shively because SHE broke engagement. My ex-fiance was cheating and broke our engagement and now (3 years later) wants ring back, which I no longer have. Can he win in court over the original cost of the ring?
