    Etiquette as for engagement rings in cases of broken engagements, to
    my knowledge, has always been: the one who breaks the promise looses
    the ring. If 'she' breaks the engagement she has to give back the
    ring. If 'he' breaks the engagement, 'she' keeps the ring. 

    I'm pretty sure that is in published etiquette books (and columns)
    that way also. Seems to me that long established tradition would
    favor heavily in a suit where there was no previous legal precedent. 

Just my 2 cents.
