'Babysitter No More' & 'Falsely Arrested' & 'Double Crossed On a Trailer'
First, the plaintiff used to babysit for the defendant, but it all came to a head when the defendant accused her of telling the children to eat poop. The plaintiff always found the defendant hard to work with, but this was the final straw, and she quit. Now she’s having the hardest time collecting the final chunk of money she’s owed, so she’s suing. The defendant says the plaintiff wasn’t very good at her job and didn’t follow the house rules. The defendant says the plaintiff quit the day before work over text and told her the cops would be called if she wasn’t paid.
Then, the plaintiff says he put down security and first month’s rent on an apartment owned by the defendant, only to be arrested and falsely accused of a crime he did not commit. When he finally got his name cleared and returned to the apartment, he found the locks had all been changed. The defendants threatened him, and refused to let him in. He’s suing for the money he put down since he never lived there. The defendant says she was concerned for the other families in the building, which is why she turned down the plaintiff, but needed to be paid for the time the unit stood empty.
Plus, the plaintiff says he and the defendant had a deal to sell a trailer together, but the defendant double-crossed him and sold it on his own. The plaintiff had a buyer ready to purchase with cash in hand when he discovered this, and he didn’t even get his fair share of the final deal. He’s suing the defendant to get his half of the sale. The defendant claims he offered a lot of his friends a commission if they could find a buyer, but he by no means had an exclusive deal with the plaintiff. He sold the trailer before the plaintiff had even found a guy and isn’t entitled to that commission.
