4 months ago I moved into a new apartment. A, so called, good friend
Noticed I didn't have a lot of furniture and offered to give
Me some things she had from her home. A bed spread, a couch, etc.
She even went out and purchased a few small items for my new place,
Like pillows and a shower curtain.
4 months later, she now wants all the gifts back so she can sell them in
A yard sale!
She's threatening to call the police as well.
Do I legally have to return any of these gifts?
And what exactly can the police do about it?
I didn't steal anything. She brought these items to me
as gifts because I needed them. We never talked about
This being a loan or any kind of repayment.
