    'I Do Not Like Your Dog' & 'Being a Lousy Loanee' & 'Tuning Out a Tenant'
    Mar 30 2026
    First, the plaintiff was at a friend’s apartment complex for a party when she went outside to give her two service dogs a bathroom break. The defendant reportedly told her there were no pets allowed, instigating an argument because they’re service animals. The plaintiff is suing for pain and suffering due to discrimination. The defendant doesn’t understand the concern because he owns the property and he’s allowed to do with it what he pleases. Then, the plaintiff says he loaned money to the defendant, who’s a friend of a friend. Now the guy won’t pay him back for what is rightfully his and even says the plaintiff is harassing him. The defendant claims the plaintiff is just a liar trying to extort money from him that he doesn’t owe. Plus, the plaintiff rented a commercial space from the defendant for 20 years and says he’s been refused the return of his security deposit. He’s suing to get it back. The defendant says the plaintiff was a good tenant for the most part, but the security deposit was needed to repair all the damages he left behind, so the defendant owes nothing.

    'Trucking It Up' & 'Teach Your Dog to Heel' & 'Ripping Off a Tenant'
    Mar 27 2026
    First, the plaintiff took his truck to the defendant’s shop for repairs, only to get a call several weeks later from the cops saying it had been stolen and was currently at impound. The defendant went to get the car back and refused to return it to the plaintiff unless he was repaid for the cost of release. The defendant says the plaintiff wanted to sell the car, but the defendant wasn’t interested since he couldn’t provide a title. The car was left on the street, and the plaintiff became threatening. He says he helped the guy out by getting it back from impound. Then, the plaintiff, who was friends with the defendant’s son, was leaving the defendant’s house one day when their two dogs attacked him. He claims one went for his throat, and he says he’s lucky to still be alive. He’s suing the defendant for the amount he owes in medical bills. The defendant says the plaintiff was high on pot when the event happened, and she had told him to stay in the room he was in because she was letting her dogs out. He didn’t listen and went outside anyway. He admits to kicking one of the dogs, which caused the attack. Since the dog was trained as a guard dog, she’s not responsible for any damages. Plus, the plaintiff rented a house from the defendant, but after Hurricane Sandy hit, it became uninhabitable. Now the defendant is refusing to return the security deposit, and the plaintiff wants it back, so he’s suing. The defendant claims that the damages caused to the house had no impact on the floor the plaintiff lived on, but he decided to move out anyway. He claims the plaintiff left the unit a mess with lots of his own damages, giving the defendant every reason to keep the security deposit.

    'Not Being Nice to Auntie' & 'Being a Downward Dog' & 'Being Holey'
    Mar 26 2026
    The plaintiff allowed her niece to live in her home with her, but now owes her rent. Her own family is disrespecting her, so she’s suing for the rent she deserves. The defendant says she’s lived in that house since long before her aunt took over the family finances and has never once been asked to pay rent. She’s a minister and doesn’t come from a place of hate. The plaintiff put down a deposit on the yoga studio the defendant was selling, but something felt off after the defendant’s wife hired her to be a yoga instructor. When she learned the studio hadn’t made money in five years, she decided she didn’t want to purchase it anymore. He won’t return the deposit, so she’s suing. The defendant says he was originally selling the place for much more but dropped the price after Hurricane Sandy hit. He claims the plaintiff originally took that deal but backed out because she didn’t have the money, not for other reasons. He doesn’t think he owes her a refund. The plaintiff brought a leather coat to the defendant for repair work on the buttons, which were loose. When she picked it up, however, the buttons were still loose, and there was a puncture in the leather. She is suing the defendant for the money she spent on repairs and the cost of travel to court. The defendant says he’s been in business for 40 years and comes from Italy, so he knows what he’s doing. He claims he was brought a vinyl jacket, not a leather one, and did the best work he could to repair it. He’s ready to defend his reputation.

    First, the plaintiff claims the defendant’s big dog attacked her small dog, Nemo. The dog required stitches and needed part of his tail amputated. She claims the defendants never apologized and promised to reimburse her for the vet bills, but they haven’t done it, so she’s suing. The defendants argue their dog isn’t vicious at all.

She claims the defendant didn’t install it property and the wind knocked it over a few weeks later. She’s suing for her money back.

Plus, the plaintiff placed a deposit on a van at the defendant’s used car dealership. He returned a week later with the balance, but the van was gone. He says the defendant sold the van to someone else, so he’s suing for his money back. The defendant claims the plaintiff called and said he was having financial issues.

She’s suing for the cost of the bills and cancellation charges. The defendant argues the plaintiff had a crush on him and that she added the phone lines, not him.

Plus, the plaintiff helped the defendant buy a new car when the defendant got into an accident. He claims the defendant fell on hard times financially, so she gave it to her son, who then totaled it.

    Mar 20 2026
    First, the plaintiff brings his neighbors to court. He says the defendant’s tree crashed through his fence onto his property, which is the third time it has happened. He’s suing for damages. The defendant argues the tree came down during Hurricane Sandy. He called insurance, but there was a delay because of the storm. He’s countersuing for lost wages. Then, the plaintiff says her stepdaughter called the plaintiff’s husband in tears asking for a loan because she was going to be homeless. She still has not repaid the money, so the plaintiff is suing for what’s owed. The defendant says she asked her father for the money, not the plaintiff, and this court session is the first time she’s ever met the plaintiff. If her dad borrowed the money from the plaintiff, how is that the defendant’s fault? Plus, the plaintiff claims a driver from the defendant’s waste management company backed into his fence, causing lots of damage. He says the defendant, who owns the company, has refused to return his calls, and he just wants his fence fixed. He is suing for the repairs.

    Mar 19 2026
    First, the plaintiff says he gave the defendant a first-generation iPod to repair for him. When he went to pick it up, however, the defendant was hiding from him, and the iPod was broken and all his songs were gone. He is suing for the price of a new iPod and all the songs he lost. The defendant claims he was paid to run a diagnostics test on the iPod, and when he discovered the damages, he was told to simply transfer the music to a hard drive, which failed. Then, the plaintiff and defendant were good friends. She says she gave the defendant money to purchase a car for her, but the defendant botched the job and failed to get the car.

The plaintiff now has mold in his unit and is suing for the cost of repairs. The defendant says he looked high and low for a water leak, but couldn’t find anything, so he doesn’t know what leak the plaintiff is talking about. He hasn’t had water problems in his nine years of being there. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
