Statement of Case:
Plaintiff Daniel Khang was bitten and injured on or about June 23, 2022, at 134 Highway Street Storm Lake, Iowa by a dog named Sandie owned by Defendant Chong Xiong. The dog was housed in a kennel in the backyard of 134 Highway Street, a property owned and occupied by Ong Lor, at the time of the attack.

The Court has already ruled that Defendant Chong Xiong is strictly liable to Daniel Khang for damages caused by the dog. The remaining issues from your determination are (1) the amount of damages, if any, suffered by Plaintiff, and (2) whether any fault of the released parties or the Plaintiff contributed to the damages.
