One Tough Cookie

The plaintiff put a deposit down on an event hall for his engagement party even though the day he wanted was booked. He ended up booking a new venue, but now the defendant won’t return his money, so he’s suing. The defendant does not think she owes him.

[@ec-kj4yp]

The plaintiff was so ridiculous. He came in there leading with this story that the defendant controlled everything, including the date. Didn't make any sense whatsoever.

[@LeeoGoneWild]

I just cannot imagine anyone wanting to marry someone like him that would lie like this and lie so badly. None of it made any sense, he let the event coordinator pick the date of their own engagement?? LOL PLEASE.

[@manilkasheran2934]

Part of the conversation is missing so I assume it happened over the phone and the texts don't specifically state that they agreed on either date on or before 02nd October! Maybe they initially asked her to move things around for the 20th by stupidly giving her a deposit without a confirmation and they moved the convesation over to texts when the sister couldn't make it on the 20th and the defendant gave the Rosetta room on the 21st which the she also reneged on over texts later on the 02nd. or may be the bride just asked if 21st isn't available anymore. Why would hey bring upthe 20th if they didn't atleast have a conversation about it. Either way the defendant is shady for accepting a deposit without a contract! and obviously the couple are stupid for giving it to her in the first place. Judge wanted them to learn a lesson I think! Record every business conversation over phone people it ain't that hard!

[@AcesDwn1]

To add some flavor to this. I never went to court. I did try to buy a travel trailer once.. We agreed on price, and went to the DMV in US to finalize the sale. Turned out, the seller was not the owner. I had a $500.00 USD deposit paid to her, with the balance to be paid upon delivery. She did in fact know the currnet owner, but she wasn't the current owner according to DMV. I backed out of the deal, feeling it was way too shady for me. When I said I want a refund, she immediately sent a check for my deposit minus winterization of the trailer. I accepted the check.. Why? Because losing 150 USD of a deposit was worth avoiding the hassle to sue. Not to mention, it was creeping on winter, and they DE-winteriszed to show the trailer. Makes sense they had to winterize again.. I know.. Not my problem, but it was not worth my time to go after.

I kind of believe him. I think dates were just thrown around and nothing was set in stone. I think defendant said she had the 21st and they probably said thats fine and then defendant came back with the 28th and thats why she said is the 21st not available any more. So when they finally chose a date it went to she was booked. Defendant seems kinda off to me and I dont totally believe her. Judge M once again cut him off and wouldn't let him even finish his sentance. I hate when she already has her mind made up and don't let people talk.

[@tommyjones6866]

I agree with you. From what JM was reading from the text messages doesn't line up with the conclusions shes coming to. Maybe theres more she didn't read. Also, it bothers me Defendant keeps saying "I have a contract" when she didn't have a contract at all.

[@artistjoh]

It is very telling that his fiancé was not there.

[@thebookwasbetter3650]

They don't ever talk about this on PC but there is something called the parol evidence rule. And no it has nothing to do wtih being on parole from jail. It basically states that if you have a valid verbal contract but then sign a written agreement, anything in the written agreement always trumps the verbal, unless the person admits it in court. It doesn't apply if you make an oral agreement after the written one though. But good luck proving it!

[@TheCurvye]

I honestly think the Judge is wrong with this one. A deposit is a money you put down on a place or on a space at a specific time so that no one else can get it and the thing is is they gave her money hoping they could get a date on a specific place. She never gave them the okay that the date or that place was available so he gave her money in hopes that it would become available he gave her money not to hold any other time slot just hoping she had a Time spot for that specific space so therefore she is not out any money. They did not occupy the hold of any other place or any other time slot. I don't know what the rest of you guys are hearing but she never took their money and said that they had any specific date lockdown she took their money and said I will see what I can do therefore she was not hurting because she did not have to turn it down any other clients
