Podcast:The People’s Court Podcast Published On: Mon Jan 26 2026 Description: First, the plaintiff says the defendant, her landlord, entered her apartment without permission and took her TV and some prescription bottles. Two days later, she moved out and is suing for her security deposit and rent. The defendant denies taking anything and says the plaintiff breached her one-year lease by moving out early. He is countersuing for unpaid rent. Then, the plaintiff says she was visiting her parents at their housing complex and parked in a legal visitor spot, but the defendant towed her car. She is suing to be reimbursed for the towing fees. The defendant says the plaintiff was not parked in a visitor space and that the tow was justified. Plus, the plaintiff says she and the defendant cleaned houses together, but the defendant failed to pay her in full for her work. She is suing for the remaining balance. The defendant says the plaintiff often arrived late, left early, and should be grateful for the pay she did receive, given her incomplete work.
