'Painting Herself Into a Corner' & 'A Key Caper' & 'You're an Unfair Landlord'

The plaintiff bought a painting from the defendant, and when he got home and compared it to the Craigslist ad, he noticed the colors were way off. The plaintiff asked for a refund, but the defendant refused, so he is suing to get his money back. The defendant says the plaintiff bought a very specific painting, and he seemed satisfied when she delivered it. The plaintiff hired the defendant to fix a dent in his car. However, the plaintiff claims the defendant lost his car key, which is expensive to replace, so he is suing. The defendant says he doesn’t owe the plaintiff because he fixed the car and left the key in the cupholder just like he told him. The plaintiffs rented a house from the defendant. When they moved out, the plaintiffs claim the defendant illegally withheld their security deposit and billed them for smoke damage even though the defendant knew they were smokers when they signed the lease. The plaintiffs believe the defendant is just trying to take advantage of them, so they’re suing. The defendant insists the plaintiffs caused extensive damage, and he’s countersuing for additional repairs. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.
