Lawyers for the City of Richmond and Prabjot and Raj Nijjer have come to an agreement whereby the family's Rottweilers, Axle and Paris, will be released back to the family after sitting in the city pound for close to six months.
The out-of-court settlement still hinges on approval by a court judge, which is scheduled to occur today (Friday) at 1:30 p.m. The Nijjer's lawyer, Joe Peschisolido, said the settlement terms are similar to the ones reported by the News on Wednesday.
In order to be released, the family must meet several conditions, which may include dog training, mandatory muzzles and an indemnity clause.
Axle and Paris were facing destruction orders by the city following a series of incidents where public safety was questioned. The dogs are listed as "dangerous" by the city.
