Treating a Tenant Terribly  
Podcast: The People’s Court Podcast
Published On: Wed Mar 06 2024
Description: The plaintiffs say the defendant is their very weird former landlord, who they allege spent their security deposit instead of holding it in escrow. They’re suing to have the money returned now that they’ve moved out. The defendant says the plaintiffs told him they had a family emergency and they had to move out early, so he claims he informed them he was keeping the deposit. The plaintiff says she was leaving her building with her little Yorkie, and the defendant’s unleashed dog attacked and killed her elderly dog. She’s suing for the state maximum. The defendant says her puppy was behind a fence, and the plaintiff’s unleashed dog antagonized her puppy. The plaintiff says her daughter rented an apartment for her senior year in college, but the hard-headed defendant won’t return their security deposit. They never heard from him, so they’re suing. The defendant claims the tenants spot-painted the walls and left the bathroom a mess. He says he won’t return anything. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe so you never miss an episode.
