'Serving up a Lawsuit' & 'Ruining a Renter's Day' & 'Taking Your Stinkin' Piece of Junk Back'

First, the plaintiff says the defendant was a bartender he employed at his restaurant who served alcohol to a minor. That minor got into a car accident and the employee was fired. However, the restaurant was fined $3,000 for providing the alcohol, and the plaintiff is suing the defendant for the cost of that fee. The defendant claims the minor was a regular who was given drinks by all the bartenders at the restaurant, and she had even cut the individual off that evening. She had watched the minor get into a car as a passenger with someone who had not been drinking. Because the fine was issued to the business, not her, she does not believe it is her responsibility. Then, the plaintiff says he moved into the defendant’s home as a subletter and fixed up countless issues with the unit. Just two weeks later, he was asked to move out because the defendant wanted someone else to sublet. He was left homeless and lost his job. He is suing the defendant for $1,100. The defendant claims she rented out the apartment specifically to the plaintiff’s girlfriend, and not him, something she was intentional about. She says there was even a dog living there, which wasn’t allowed. Plus, the plaintiff knows the defendant through his son and saw that the defendant was going through a rough patch. He decided to help the defendant out by purchasing him a car and would allow him to get his life in order before requesting repayments. The defendant hasn’t made any payments, and so the plaintiff is suing. The defendant claims the plaintiff never said anything about wanting to be repaid, so the defendant was unaware of such a deal. He even claims the plaintiff slashed two tires of the car! Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
