The People’s Court Podcast

First, the plaintiffs, a married couple, purchased a couch from the defendant. They claim the couch wasn’t authentic leather like they ordered, so they asked for a refund. The plaintiffs say the defendant agreed to give them their money back, but now he won’t, so they’re suing. The defendant argues he brought the furniture to the plaintiffs’ house so they could get a feel for it, but it’s not his fault the couple couldn’t decide what they wanted. He says he never offered a refund.

Then, the plaintiffs purchased a car from the defendant. They say the car had a broken steering wheel, and they’re just lucky to be alive. The plaintiffs are suing for the cost of the vehicle. The defendant argues he offered them an upgrade when they returned the first car. He says the plaintiffs destroyed the steering arm, and it’s not his fault.

Plus, the plaintiff bought a French bulldog from the defendant. When he brought the dog home, he found out it had a UTI and the deadly virus parvo. The plaintiff took the puppy to the animal hospital, so now he’s suing for vet bills. The defendant doesn’t think she’s responsible because the dog had a clean bill of health when it left her house.

First, the plaintiff bought a German shepherd puppy from the defendants’ pet store. The dog got sick and learned it had a congenital defect. She’s suing for vet bills, the cost of the puppy, and dog supplies. The defendants argue the plaintiff demanded a dog for free and caused a scene in their store.

Then, the plaintiff rented an illegal apartment from the defendant. She says her former landlord gave her 72 hours to vacate and even turned off her electricity, which ruined a fridge full of food. The plaintiff is suing for expenses for illegal evictions. The defendant argues he gave the plaintiff leeway when she fell behind on rent. He’s countersuing for late fees, electric bills, stealing his trailer, and a garbage truck.

Plus, the plaintiff’s car was parked in a lot when she claims the defendant damaged her car while he was installing a car seat. She’s suing for the cost of the damages. The defendant argues the plaintiff claimed out of nowhere that he nicked her car, but he knows he didn’t. He said the plaintiff’s car has scratches all over the place, so he thinks the plaintiff is just pinning all the damage on him.

First, the plaintiffs rented an apartment to the defendant. They claim the plaintiff threw parties and left garbage everywhere. The plaintiffs say the defendant is trying to use the security deposit to pay for her last month’s rent. They’re suing for rent and additional expenses. The defendant argues the plaintiffs were always at her apartment, and she didn’t enjoy that. She’s countersuing for overpayment of rent.

Then, the plaintiff wrote a book and hired the defendant to edit and publish her book. She claims the defendant is a liar and did nothing for her. She’s suing for her money back and lost wages in book sales. The defendant argues he is an award-winning book publisher who has been doing this for decades. He says he printed and delivered the books to her, so he doesn’t owe her.

Plus, the plaintiff left his Kia at the defendant’s repair shop as collateral for a Jeep he bought from the defendant. He says the defendant sold his Kia behind his back. He’s suing for the cost of the Kia. The defendant argues the plaintiff brought the Kia in for repairs, but the car wasn’t even worth fixing. He told the plaintiff he had 30 days to get the Kia off his lot, and he has no idea what happened to the car. He’s countersuing for the remaining balance of the Jeep.

First, the plaintiff and defendant have known each other since high school, and they dated for a while.

He claims his ex-girlfriend, the defendant, told him she would pay for the ticket fines, but she never did. His license got suspended and he was pulled from her insurance policy, so he’s suing. The defendant argues she never said she would cover the ticket costs.

Then, the plaintiff brings his younger brother to court. Their other brother died, so the plaintiff paid for the defendant’s plane ticket to attend the funeral in Ecuador. The plaintiff says his brother hasn’t paid him back, so he’s suing. The defendant argues the ticket was a gift and he never agreed to pay.

Plus, the plaintiff rented a room from the defendant after Hurricane Sandy left him homeless. He claims the defendant didn’t tell the other tenants that he had a dog, and she threatened to throw him out.

The defendant argues the plaintiff was disrespectful and other tenants moved out because of him.
