The plaintiff says she prepaid the defendant to do yardwork, but he took off with her money. She then found out he had a criminal past, and she’s suing him for what she’s owed. The defendant says he’s been in business for 35 years and did 99% of the work, but the plaintiff ranted at him when it rained and he had to wait to trim a tree. He’s countersuing for lost wages and business.
The plaintiff says she hired the defendant as a handyman in her 23-unit building. She said he confirmed he was licensed and insured, but that wasn’t true. Now the bathrooms he worked on are leaking, so she’s suing for the money she paid him. The defendant says he never told the plaintiff he was licensed and insured. He alleges she’s suing because he filed a complaint after he was injured at work.
The plaintiff says the defendant ruined his coat while dry cleaning it and made him sign something saying he’d only get $22 for it. He claims the coat was worth $500, so that’s what he’s suing for. The defendant says the coat had a defect because he followed the cleaning instructions.
