    'No Good Deed Goes Unpunished' & 'Give Me a Hand' & 'A Doggone Nightmare'

She claims they brought bedbugs into her home, caused a toilet overflow, and stole a flat-screen TV. She’s suing for property damage, an unpaid loan, and back rent. The defendants deny bringing in bedbugs and say the infestation likely came from a couch the plaintiff received from her friend’s brother the same day they moved in.

Then, the plaintiffs say the defendant, one of their yoga students, borrowed money for car repairs after her vehicle was vandalized. Once her car was working again, she allegedly refused to repay the loan. They are suing for the money owed.

She says he held her car “ransom,” but she retrieved it using her spare key. She believes this is why she is being sued. Plus, the plaintiff says she hired the defendant for home repairs and mistakenly paid him in full before work began. She claims his work was sloppy and incomplete, so she’s suing for a refund.

Then, the plaintiff says she hired the defendant to cater a birthday party that was canceled due to a hurricane.
