Dashing with the Cash

The plaintiff says she hired the defendant, an event planner, to organize a birthday bash and fundraiser for a daycare playground. She claims the party was a mess and says the defendant stole cash donations, so she’s suing for the money. The defendant denies taking any money, and she’s countersuing for unpaid party-planning fees. Then, the plaintiff says he shares a property line with the defendant, who he claims no one likes. The plaintiff says he was forced to pay the entire fee to remove a tree on the property line, and he’s suing for reimbursement and fines. The defendant says the plaintiff’s tree leans on his garage, and the plaintiff intentionally cut the bark off the tree so it would die. He’s filed a countersuit for garage repair and harassment.  Plus, the plaintiff says she bought a car from the defendant, but it stopped dead in the middle of the highway. She claims she’s out $4,000 in repairs and says the defendant knew the vehicle was faulty. She’s suing for repair costs, loaner cars, and missed work. The defendant says they went on a test drive after the car stopped and it worked perfectly, and they also performed repairs.  Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.
