'Landscaping Mafia', 'Skimming On Security' & 'Being Sticky-Fingered'

The plaintiff says he was contracted to do landscaping for the defendant and did a great job. The check he was paid with bounced, and he claims the defendant told him he was with the mafia and threatened him when he tried to collect. He’s suing for what he’s owed. The defendant says the plaintiff did a lousy job and his nephew wrote the check off a closed account. The plaintiff says she rented a four-bedroom home from the defendants and left the place immaculate when she moved out. They’re refusing to return her security deposit, so she’s suing for every penny she’s owed. The defendants say the plaintiff moved out late, broke doors, and damaged the bathroom, so they had to use some of the deposit for repairs. The plaintiff says her friend stole her credit card and used it for unauthorized purchases. She’s suing for the money back. The defendant says the plaintiff gave her the card at the veterinarian’s office because her dog was vomiting blood. The plaintiff scammed the credit card company and told them the card was stolen, and they refunded her money. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.
