'Stiffing an Employe... But Good' & 'Having an Infestation' & 'Don't Shirt The Issue'
Podcast: The People’s Court PodcastPublished On: Wed May 13 2026
Description: First, the plaintiff claims he was hired by the defendant to do four days of landscaping with his bulldozer, but the defendant now refuses to pay him for his work. He soon learned the defendant has a history of not paying people for their work. The defendant claims the plaintiff got verbally abusive on the job, tried to go against plans, and even demanded to be paid in cash under the table. Since the defendant doesn’t work that way, he refused to do so and paid the plaintiff through proper channels. Then, the plaintiff says she rented a unit from the defendant, only to find it was infested with roaches. The ceiling would also leak, filling the ceiling light with water. She moved out because of these concerns and is suing the defendant for prepaid rent. The defendant claims the plaintiff was confrontational from the beginning to the point she once called the police. The plaintiff reportedly moved out after only three weeks. Plus, the plaintiff claims he made top-quality apparel for the defendant’s company employees, but the defendant gave him a rubber check for his product. He is suing for the money he is owed. The defendant says he’s worked with the plaintiff for nine years and hasn’t had any issues until now. He claims the embroidery on the shirt of his company’s name was incorrect, and all the shirts were incorrectly sized. He says he doesn’t owe the plaintiff any money because of this.
