Can I or should I sue my friend?
Here is the details, I tried to help a friend out and put her on my cell phone plan (I know, stupid thing i'll never do again.) So I told her you have to find a job, and I expect you to pay at least 50% of the bill. So the first month i said she didn't have to while she was finding the job. The second month she paid about 10%. and then the third month she ran the bill up to $486 (mind you I dont use my phone much) and then the phones were shut off and I never could gget in touch with her again. I tried to resolve it with the company, set up a payment plan. But that didn't work so on top of the balance she ran up, she also cause both lines to be cancelled at 250.00 each.. Now I have a company after me for the full balance. I believe she would be reponsible for a part of it, and I have all the proof that I could probably convince any judge in small claims... What are everyone's thoughts on it?
Should my friend sue Wheel of Fortune?
I have this friend, it isn't me, who appeared on Wheel of Fortune last week and every time he spun the wheel, he went bankrupt. Every single time. Now I'm no statistician but the odds of that happening entirely on its own, left to chance, are astronomical. What's more likely here? That it happened by chance or that the show was fixing the results? And if so, then the show owes my friend due pay. We went over it with an ACTUAL statistician, and he calculated that the amount of money he was likely to get without the show fixing would have been $32,000. We're thinking we should discuss this option with a litigator for damages.
Me and my friend both applied for the same job. He got the job but I didn’t. Can I sue Papa Johns?
No. Unless discrimination was involved. Beyond that your friend will have to keep applying places.
I crashed my friends car, can she sue me?
Yes she is able to sue for the damange you caused that is not covered by her insurance. At the end of the day, facts that can be documented are 1. that the car is registered under her name, 2. you were driving and crashed it, 3. how much her insurance covered. Ask for all proofs and reciepts. If she says her insurnace went up because of the accident and can prove it, it is probably best to at least cover some of that expense. You could argue that she let you drive, however, she could start claiming that you took her car without her permission (i.e. stole the car) when you were drunk and crasehd it, as the car is registered under her name. It will be your word against hers at best. (unless she was in the car with you at the time of the accident.) Just treat it like it is your own car that you crashed / pay whatever the actual expense that you incurred to her, instead of try to fall back on the fact that she let you drive. It was your choice and decision to drive a car, and she's not your guardian that forced you to drive a car. If she insists on an outrageous amount that she cannot prove, however, consult with an attorney, it may be in your interest to let her sue / file a claim and let a judge decide what is a reasonable amount.
