This depends on who broke the engagement. If the woman breaks the engagement, she has to return the ring. If a man breaks the engagement, she gets to keep the ring.
No..a gift is a gift!
Return Engagement - album - was created in 1988.
Unless specifically ordered to return the person's property by the courts or the sheriffs department, you are not legally obligated to accommodate the person who may own the belongings. On the other hand, if you really want to return the property, call him and drop it off somewhere for him to pick up.
If the engagement ring you gave your fiance is a family heirloom (passed down from generation to generation) then she should give you the ring back. If you bought her the engagement ring then it's hers to keep. If and when you get engaged again your next fiance would not want a ring you had given another woman.
Any engagement ring law is usually this: If the male breaks the engagement, she may keep the ring. If the female breaks the engagement, she must return the ring. Oh, and in most cases I've heard of, it's not a "law" as in a specific legislative decree. More just the common practice of civil courts, who reason that the ring was given in expectation of marriage, so if she breaks it off, she "owes" it back, but if he changes his mind, that's not her fault. However, as with all legal matters, one should consult with a local attorney, more familiar with the laws of your state, and your specific situation.
No
Depending on where you bought the ring and their return policy you should be able to return an engagement ring if you were not happy with it or if things didn't go as you would have liked with the engagement.
Traditionally, the man buys the engagement ring and then proposes to the woman (usually by getting down on one knee, producting the ring and asking 'Will you marry me?'). (This formula varies by couple). Now, in the event of a broken engagement: If she breaks the engagement, she should return the ring to him. If he breaks it, she is entitled to keep the ring.
