About this listen

 First, the plaintiff is a cab driver who took the defendant home one night. He says the defendant was drunk and didn’t pay when he got out. The plaintiff kept the defendant’s phone as collateral and ran after him, but then the defendant beat him up. He’s suing for the cost of new teeth, lost wages, and emotional distress. The defendant argues he tried to pay with a credit card, but the driver demanded cash. He says he asked the plaintiff to wait while he got cash, but then the plaintiff ran after him. He claims he was defending himself. Then, the plaintiff purchased a leather couch from the defendant’s store, but now but cushions are starting to peel. He says he took the cushion to an upholsterer, who told him it wasn’t actually leather. He’s suing for a refund. The defendant argues he special-ordered the couch for the plaintiff. Plus, the plaintiff bought it five years prior to the lawsuit. He doesn’t issue refunds, so he’s not giving the plaintiff one. Plus, the plaintiff asked the defendant to pick her up in her car, but then the defendant hit a brick wall and a woman. She says she is having problems collecting damages from the defendant, so she’s suing for the cost of the car. The defendant argues she panicked because the plaintiff yelled at her and put her dog in the backseat. She thinks the accident was the plaintiff’s fault because she distracted her.
