Okay question for all of you out there, whether you have a legal background or not, I was just wondering.
My friend claims I owe her 80 dollars, which I don't. The MOST I owe her is 40 and even then that's pushing it. I already paid her 25. She says that if she doesn't get the full 80 she's going to sue me.
She doesn't have a lawyer, she said she'll fight this herself. I have a lawyer, and if he can't help me he has hook ups to some of the best lawyers in the area and I would recieve their services for free. BUt that's not the point.
What I'm asking here is common sense wise, is it smart for someone to sue you for 80 dollars? WOuldn't the legal fees and cost of travel immediately make this a bad idea?
I stand firmly that I do not owe her 80 dollars, she claims I have all the money in the world and can easily pay her, which is SO NOT TRUE. I make about100 dollars a week, give or take, it depends on how long I work, and my dad helps me with rent so the rest of that money has to go to food, transportation, etc.
She says if this is taken to court SHE looks like the better person because she has a job and I quote "A life" so the judge would side with her. I on the other hand have a small job. my own place, and a few very good lawyers.
My question is this....is she really that STUPID that she would do this for 80 dollars? She makes WAY more money then I do, so I say let it go. Besides half the stuff that she is claiming she paid for was stuff I NEVER agreed to pay her back on. She says that I did (Which is wrong and I have a better memory then her and her pot smoking girlfriend). Who's right here?
