About this episode
First, the plaintiff says the defendant trespassed onto his property after he trimmed some bushes and called him offensive names and even admitted it to the cops. He got an order of protection against her and is suing for harassment. The defendant claims the plaintiff is the one harassing her and even caused her pig to die by putting toxic chemicals on his bushes. Then, the plaintiff loaned his girlfriend some money but has had a hard time getting paid back since they’ve broken up. He’s suing to get his money back. The defendant says the plaintiff was going through a divorce when they were dating and offered to pay for a portion of rent on an apartment for her. It was only ever a gift, and she doesn’t owe him anything. Plus, the plaintiff says she was hired by the defendant to be his assistant on a documentary he was filming in Maine. She soon got the sense the film wasn’t actually happening, and the defendant just wanted a woman to travel with him. She’s suing to get the money she’s owed for taking up the job. The defendant says the plaintiff joined him on location scouting and other film tasks, spoke to potential participants, and is padding the number of hours she worked for him. Besides, he was just a supervisor, not the one who hired her. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
