'3rd Time Isn’t the Charm' & 'Almost Homeless' & 'Can’t Fence Me In'

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. The defendant claims there was no contact made with the fence, which was already old and falling apart. He thinks it’s a shakedown. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.
