  • 'What’s Your Version of the Story?' & 'The Vet Bill Is Her Defense' & 'Messy Apartments and Tenant Troubles'
    Dec 9 2025
    First, the plaintiff was heading to her brand-new car after a night with friends when she noticed the defendant drunkenly standing by the vehicle. She claims he scratched the car in his drunken state and is suing for damages. The defendant claims the scratches were already there and not caused by him like the plaintiff argues. Then, the plaintiff says she’s having a hard time getting the defendant to reimburse her for vet bills after the defendant’s dog attacked hers, causing damage. She is suing to get her money back. The defendant argues there is no evidence that her dog attacked the plaintiff’s dog and doesn’t think she owes anything. Plus, the plaintiff rented a place from the defendants but found it was unlivable before moving in. When she asked for her down payment back, the defendants refused, claiming they’d already spent the money. She is suing for her money back. The defendants don’t understand why the plaintiff had a sudden change of heart when it came to moving into the unit. They believe that since it was her duty to move in after paying for it, the issue is on her, not them. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.

  • 'Cracking Up' & 'Shotty Shipping' & 'Unloading a Lemon'
    Dec 8 2025
    First, the plaintiff says the defendant, her boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend, is crazy. She claims the ex attacked her car, breaking a windshield, and is suing her for the damages. The defendant admits to attacking the car, but it was because the ex-boyfriend had taken her child and locked himself in the car. She wasn’t charged for anything by the police due to the situation, so if anyone should pay for damages, it should be the man. Then, the plaintiff bought an antique lamp from the defendant, who packed it, insured it, and sent it on its way to the plaintiff. When it arrived to him, however, it was smashed to pieces. He says it was due to the defendant’s poor packing of the antique item, so he’s suing to get his money back. The defendant says he watched the lamp get packaged perfectly, and thinks the plaintiff is trying to hide something about the lamp. He says the plaintiff won’t bring up the person who signed for the package. Plus, the plaintiff bought a car from the defendant, but it turns out the vehicle can’t pass an inspection to be street safe. This information was not disclosed to the plaintiff beforehand, and he’s been forced to take the bus while the car sits on the street collecting dust. He’s suing for his money back. The defendant says the plaintiff came to check out the car with his mechanic, who said it was in good shape. He only came back a month later complaining he was sold a lemon, but the defendant told him there was nothing he could do about it. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.

  • 'Snatching a Car off the Street' & 'Taking a Woman's Water Money' & 'Creating a Doggy Dilemma'
    Dec 5 2025
    First, the plaintiff says he put down $2,000 on a car and financed the rest, and the next thing he knew the car was being repossessed because his loan was denied. Now the defendant won’t return his deposit, so the plaintiff is suing him for it. The defendant says he should have followed his gut and refused to do business with the plaintiff, as the guy canceled his insurance on the car right after getting it. Since the bank couldn’t verify his credit information, the defendant had the deal canceled. Then, the plaintiff says she rented a place from the defendant, only to have the water cooler leak and destroy the floors. The insurance company sent the defendant a check to repair the damages, but the defendant never did. On top of that, the plaintiff was then evicted and has yet to get her security deposit back, so she’s suing the defendant. The defendant says the plaintiff never gave him a security deposit and is just trying to get the insurance money. Plus, the plaintiff purchased a 10-day doggy day care package from the defendant, only to learn partway into it that her dog was banned from the program for bad behavior. Now she can’t seem to get her money back for the unused days and is suing the defendant to get it back. The defendant says the plaintiff’s dog was a danger to other dogs in her care, but she did return the money for the unused days, so she owes nothing.
