    'A Wedding Wipeout' & 'Poof! It Disappeared' & 'Landlording to The Letter of The Law'

    First, the plaintiff hired the defendant’s company to provide a photographer, videographer, and DJ for her wedding but claims they didn’t do their jobs right on the big day. She says the photographer didn’t know how to use a camera, the DJ was dressed inappropriately, and the videographer only had one arm. She is suing for the cost of services. The defendant says the plaintiff purchased the cheapest package possible, which doesn’t include any editing, and the attendants of the event had a great time with the DJ. He even offered to edit the photos just to make the plaintiff happy but got turned down. He owes nothing. Then, the plaintiff says the defendant, a friend of her boyfriend, agreed to fix up her car for a good price because the fuel pump was broken. When she went to pick it up, however, she discovered that the defendant had been arrested and her car was towed, but no one knows where it is now. She is suing the defendant for $4,500 because he’s the one responsible for her car going missing. The defendant claims the plaintiff never paid him for the work and left the car sitting on his property for a month. He deemed it to be abandoned, called a tow truck, and had the vehicle taken away. He denies owing anything. Plus, the plaintiff says she rented an apartment from the defendant, never moved in a single piece of furniture, and now cannot seem to get her deposit or first month’s rent back. She is suing for the amount she believes she is owed. The defendant claims the plaintiff gave her money for the apartment, then changed her mind the very next day and said she no longer wished to rent the apartment. The defendant was already painting the unit and feels she does not need to return the money while she tries to find a new tenant. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.

    'Chilling Out a Tenant' & 'Fencing in a Neighbor' & 'Disappearing'

    First, the plaintiffs rented an apartment from the defendant. They claim the heater in their home never worked, so it was absolutely freezing. The plaintiffs’ son got sick due to the cold, and when they confronted the defendant about it, he said they could just move out. They’re suing for their security deposit, moving costs, and the deposit on a new apartment. The defendant argues the plaintiffs moved out because they argued with their downstairs neighbors all the time. Then, the plaintiff says the defendant’s young nephew crashed his bike into her fence and completely destroyed it. She claims the defendant paid her in the beginning but then disappeared. She’s suing for the balance due on fence repairs. The defendant argues the plaintiff is trying to take advantage of the situation by getting an entirely new fence out of it. Plus, the plaintiff has been friends with the defendant for 25 years. He loaned his longtime pal money to help pay for his wedding, but the plaintiff claims the defendant hasn’t paid him back even though the defendant purchased a new car. He’s suing for unpaid loans. The defendant claims he did thousands of dollars of electrical work on the plaintiff’s house, which cost more than what the plaintiff loaned him. He says he paid the plaintiff back.

    'Getting Spooked' & 'Get Off my Land' & 'Not Fixing it Good'

    First, the plaintiff was once a member of the defendant’s motorcycle club and gave him a deposit to rent the defendant’s venue for a Halloween party. Several days before the event was to happen, the defendant reportedly got fined and shut down by the police for several violations, including not having a liquor permit. The plaintiff couldn’t find another location for his event and is suing the defendant for the money he’s out. The defendant claims the plaintiff’s advertising for the party caused a gang raid of his place, so he doesn’t owe the plaintiff anything. Then, the plaintiff claims he’s a Native American who takes it upon himself to protect the land around him, especially the land he owns. He says he’s had issues with ATVs and riders destroying the land behind his home, including his neighbor. When he confronted the defendant, she falsely claimed he did so with a gun, which caused legal fees upon his arrest. He is suing her for the price of a lawyer. The defendant claims she was simply walking through the woods with a friend when the plaintiff approached her in anger, carrying a stick or a rifle. Plus, the plaintiff claims that after she was involved in a hit-and-run accident, she took her car to the defendant for repair. She paid up front and he took off with the money, leaving her with a damaged car. She is suing to get her money back. The defendant claims the plaintiff canceled the order for the repair work after he’d already ordered the parts, and so he doesn’t owe her anything.

    'Being a Poor Payer' & 'Not Knowing His Bow From His Stern' & 'Once a Peeper Always a Peeper'

    First, the plaintiff hired the defendant, his friend’s sister, to work at his deli and loaned her money to purchase a car. He claims the defendant stiffed him on the payments. The defendant says she has paid off the car in full and owes the plaintiff nothing. She believes he is in cahoots with her sister to get more money out of her. Then, the plaintiff says she was hired by the defendant to replace two motors on his boat and now he’s stiffing her on the payment. On top of that, he reportedly tried to sneak his boat out of the marina after letting it sit there for two months. The plaintiff is suing him for mechanical work and the price of storage. The defendant claims the plaintiff never even did the work he hired her to do on his boat, and he can prove it. Plus, the plaintiff says she lived in an illegal basement apartment at the defendant’s house, and it was like a house of horrors. From peeping Toms and no power to getting charged for extra things and entering without notice, it was a terrible experience. She is suing the defendant for double her security deposit. The defendant claims the plaintiff had a friend move in with her, and when he approached her about it, she became defensive. He doesn’t believe he owes the plaintiff any money.
