'Manhandling a Lover' & 'Renting Out a Wreck' & 'Couching The Issue'
First, the plaintiff says he and the defendant used to be in a relationship and lived together until the defendant kicked him out. The plaintiff claims while they were together, he paid for a car, phone, and nail clippers that she hasn’t returned, so he’s suing. The defendant denies owing the defendant anything and insists she owns the car.
Then, the plaintiffs rented an apartment from the defendant. Soon after moving in, the plaintiffs say the building inspector condemned the place, and they were forced to move again, so they’re suing for their security deposit. However, the defendant insists the plaintiffs had the building wrongly condemned and moved out of the blue.
Plus, the plaintiff gave the defendant a deposit on a sofa bed, which initially cost $399. After the defendant took the deposit, the plaintiff claims he upped the price and said the sofa would cost $499. The plaintiff demanded her deposit back, but he refused, so she’s suing for a refund. The defendant insists the plaintiff purchased the sofa bed on layaway, and then she said she didn’t have the money to pay off the bed.
