How liable is landlord for dog bites?

Asked by AshlynM (10684points) July 29th, 2017

Tenant doesn’t have renter’s insurance, which was required in the lease. He was also not supposed to have pets, which is also stated in the lease.
His dog severely bit someone, a random resident of the same complex, Jane. The incident did not take place on either landlord or tenant’s property.
Now Jane is suing landlord and tenant.

How likely is it for landlord to win?
