I think she should go back, ask them if she can try them on, and after they're on her body, I'd walk out.
Well.....maybe I wouldn't do that but I'd want to. It sounds like she's got a lot on her plate, and she doesn't need this aggravation.
I wish her good luck.

Your sister is being unreasonable. If she wanted darts, she should have told them that. Actually, darts would be a sloppy job. A good job would leave the jeans looking the same as they did initially but with a smaller waist. Why should they give her the jeans without being paid? They've offered to re-do them to her specifications what more would you expect them to do?

Walking out wearing the jeans without paying would be theft of services.

Altering jeans/pants is more than putting in darts. The waist band must be removed first. Then three major seams (sides and back) would be modified to the equivalent of a total of two inches. Two inches would also be removed from the waist band. I don't see how a seamstress could take in the jeans on just one side without working on the waist band. Putting "darts" in jeans would ruin the integrity of the look. And yes, I sew.
She should have tried on the jeans first. Just saying the waist band still looked to large doesn't cut it.

I would say you told your sister correctly. That being said, she didn't pay for work done, so no pants to return to customer. We need to be specific, people cannot read our minds.

So she's mad because she didn't speak up and tell the seamstress what she wanted, then she wanted the pants back without paying for the work that was done?
Sorry, but your sister is 100% in the wrong here.
If she wanted the pants done a certain way, it is HER responsibility to speak up, and to TELL the seamstress. They are not mind-readers.
Then to not pay for the work that was done?
The business had every right to hold the pants until they got paid for the work that they did.
Any judge will tell you that.
