First, the plaintiff hired the defendant to build him a garage. He argues he gave the plaintiff a down payment, but then he disappeared and didn’t do the work. He’s suing for the uncompleted construction work. The defendant says the plaintiff changed his mind, and the set he ordered was nothing like what they previously discussed. He claims he told the plaintiff he needed more money, but then the plaintiff got mad.

Then, the plaintiff and defendant attend the same school. The plaintiff claims the defendant backed into her car while she was backing out of a parking space. She can’t get the defendant to pay for repairs, so she’s suing. The defendant argues she and the plaintiff were both backing out at the same time and they hit one another. She thinks they should pay for their own damages because they are both at fault.

Plus, the plaintiff put down a deposit to rent a room at the defendant’s apartment. When she was walking around the property, she discovered a large rat trap in the yard. She decided she didn’t want to live there anymore, so she asked for her deposit back. She’s suing because the defendant won’t return it. The defendant argues the plaintiff was just upset because she couldn’t use the hallway as her personal storage unit. She refuses to return the deposit.
