'Phoning It With a Cousin' & 'Bad Landlording' & 'Cutting a Friend Off'

First, the plaintiff is suing his cousin, the defendant, because he got her an iPhone, but she sold it before it was paid off. The defendant says the plaintiff works at Best Buy and gave her the iPhone as a gift, so she believes she doesn’t owe him anything. Then, the plaintiff rented a condo from the defendant, but she claims the defendant harassed her and refuses to return her security deposit, so the plaintiff is suing. The defendant insists she had to evict the plaintiff because she failed to pay rent, and she was a complete nightmare. The defendant is countersuing for back rent and legal costs. Plus, the plaintiff, a paralegal, says the defendant hired him to handle a Social Security claim, but the defendant failed to pay him in full, so the plaintiff is suing. The defendant says the plaintiff disrespected her, and she rightfully fired him. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode. Learn more about your ad choices.
