'Not Acting His Age' & 'Holding on Tight To The Cash' & 'Not Cementing a Deal'

First, after an eight-year relationship gone nowhere, the plaintiff decided to break up with and kick the unambitious defendant out of her home. She claims he still owes her for rent and a cell phone and is suing him. The defendant claims they had a rocky relationship where the plaintiff threatened him occasionally. He argues he is the one who ended things and had never made any promises to repay her, especially since he did not live with her. Then, the plaintiff says he rented a taxi from the defendant and gave him a $1,000 deposit to cover any damages. After returning the vehicle to the defendant, he was denied the return of his deposit. He is suing for the deposit. The defendant claims the plaintiff was in two accidents in less than six weeks and even tried to hide the second from him! This cost the defendant considerably more than the deposit in repairs to his taxi, which is why he refuses to return it. Plus, the plaintiff says she hired the defendant to pave a sidewalk and driveway around her brother’s home. Six months later, the pavement was already chipping and flaking everywhere. The defendant promised to fix the damage but failed to, and now the plaintiff is suing to get $3,500 returned. The defendant says the damage was caused by winter weather and he did return to fix it entirely free of charge. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.
