You have a legal question which would best be answered by a local lawyer where you live. I have no idea what you mean by "Injured." In this state the injury must meet certain criteria before you can sue.

Can a person sue the homeowner if they get in a fight on private property?

Yes, a person can potentially sue a homeowner if they are injured in a fight on the homeowner's private property. The homeowner may be held liable if they were found to have acted negligently or failed to provide a safe environment for their guests. However, the outcome of any lawsuit would depend on the specific circumstances of the case.


Can you sue a homeowner for damages to you and your hand even if it was your fault?

No, you can't sue your own homeowner's insurance for any medical condition you experience whether it is your fault or not. Homeowner's insurance is not medical insurance for the homeowner. However, if it is someone else's home you may have your emergency medical covered as most homeowner's policies have emergency medical coverage for non-residents. It is also possible to sue the homeowner for damages, i.e. a dog bite.

I got into a car accident the next day fell down one step in house can I sue their homeowner insurance for the fall?

If the homeowner was negligent in any way...simply falling does not make the homeowner negligent. If the steps were in poor repair, perhaps. BTW, anyone can sue anyone for anything. That does not mean you will prevail.


Can a person breaking into a house sue the owner if that person gets injured?

If the injury is based on neglegence, no, but if the injury is by some specific intentional act of the homeowner, yes. To sue for injuries based on negligence, a plaintiff must prove that the homeowner had a duty of care to the burglar to provide a safe environment; that the homeowner breached that duty and that the burglar's injury was proximately caused by that breach of duty. Whether a duty of care exists is a matter of fairness and public policy and exists as a matter of law, not of fact. A homeowner does not owe a duty of care to a person illegally entering the house; therefore even if that person is injured by the homeowner's negligence, there is no liability because there was no duty of care. Never the less, a homeowner can be sued for certain intentional as opposed to negligent actions. The famous example is the so-called "spring-gun" situation. There the homeowner set up a rifle pointing right at the front door in such a way that anyone breaking in through the front door would set off the rifle and be shot dead or seriously wounded. The use of deadly force in that situation is excessive and the homeowner would be held liable.
