Is my daughter obligated to return the engagment ring for her things in return?
Full Question:
FOUR MONTHS AGO MY DAUGHTER MOVED IN WITH HER FIANCEE. SHE BORROWED MY 3,000.00 TREADMILL AND MY 1200.00 MASSAGE CHAIR. THEY RECENTLY BROKE UP AND SHE MOVED HOME. THE X- FIANCEE WILL NOT RETURN MY PROPERTY. HE SAID WHEN SHE RETURNS THE ENGAGEMENT RING. DOES SHE HAVE TO GIVE BACK THE RING? HE TRADE DIRECTLY,BUT INSISTS HE MUST HAVE THE RING FIRST. WE DO NOT TRUST HIM. HE HAS CHANGED HIS MIND SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT RETURNING OUR THINGS. HE CALL AND THREATENS US WITH A COURT CASE IF SHE DOESN'T GIVE BACK THE RING. WHAT AM I TO DO?

Answer:
State law varies on this issue, and the answer depends on whether the engagement ring is considered a legal gift or a conditional gift.
