(Continued from last week): Nina injures her hand badly when the handle on the door of her stove pulls off. The landlord says: "it's your own fault!" We discuss what happened at court, and why. spoiler alert: landlord doesn't get off the hook, but Nina doesn't get all that she's asking for , either...) Jose, a contractor, rebuilt a defective deck on a home so that the owners could complete the sale of the home. He was promised he'd be paid out of the proceeds from the sale, and in fact, money in the amount of his bill was placed in escrow with the sellers' attorney. But she never paid him. He had to sue her. We went over what happened at court, and why. Spoiler alert: people who dislike attorneys are going to enjoy hearing what the Court did to resolve the matter.
listener calls: A woman called about getting her roofing contractor to come back and deal with the leaks in the brand-new roof. Immediately after her call, a guy called, said he was a Building Official, and made a couple of additional recommendations to help her. Also a lady drove her car into a police cruiser. Then she had the nerve to sue the cop and the Town, claiming the collision was the cop's fault. Pretty nervy, huh? We went over what happened at Court, and why. You might be surprised...
