ok stay with me

It all started when my friend needed to move and someone that i worked with was selling his house. He stated talking about doing rent to own so i talked to my friend and asked her if she would be interested. She only needs a place for a few months the man I work with said that he would rent it to her. I was with her when he came up with the rent price he told her $450 a month. There was no lease no nothing signed b/c he was still pushing the rent to own on her. A pipe started leaking the first few weeks she stayed there. She got a hold of me and I told him and he got it fixed quickly for us, then a few days later it started leaking again and not only was it leaking the bath tub started to run even when it was off making a 600 dollar water bill. It took a few weeks for him to try to fix it b/c he was trying different things and my friend was not home, and one of the days he couldn’t make it over there. So she had no water b/c he He told her to shut off the water. It was off for about 2 to 3 weeks. and he’s blaming her for the water damage from the leaking pipe. I told him what my friend told me that she was not going to pay rent b/c all of these problems with the house. He really did not say too much about it b/c when he would only try to talk to me about the house wile we were working. A month or two went by and I asked my friend did you give him any money yet for rent thinking everything was ok with the house. It seemed fine my friend did not have bank checks so she asked if she would give me the money if i would write the check so I did. He seemed ok with that. I gave him a check and everything seemed fine. One day at work he said I might be able to make the rent 300 if we did rent to own. Out of no were he started flipping out about back rent not sure what he was talking about I said I thought she was not going to pay b/c of the problems. And he said it dose not work that way. I told my friend what was up. Then next time came along to pay rent he said rent was 600 dollars she thought rent was still 450 and the extra 150 was for the back rent. When she gave me the money and I gave him the 600 dollar check he told me that it was just for that month. After we thought she had everything sorted out. he came into work saying he did not own the house anymore. He never said he was kicking my friend out so I had no idea what was going on. My coworker asked me if he was kicking my friend out b/c he was right next to me and I said “I don’t know he never said anything.” I think he lost the house to a lawyer that he owed money to. Next time when it was time to pay rent he asked me if I could just write the check out to the lawyer so I did. It was an 800 dollar check witch took 3 weeks to come out of my account and it messed up my bank account. It came to the point where he said the lawyer wanted her out. I told my friend and she wanted me to talk to him to give her one more try so I sat down with him and he gave her another chance. So I guess the lawyer guy was talking to Jim who was talking to me then I talked to my friend. Then again it did not work out. He wanted her out ASAP. At first it was out in a day but ended up giving her 3 weeks. In addition, Jim said the lawyer was going to come down and put pad locks on the doors. She moved out in the 3 weeks. He started texting me I need the money so when ever he would text me out would tell my friend what he was saying so he tried to set up a payment plan my friend, had no idea he expected so much money off of her. he texted pay 1500 now then 100 month I thought he meant between 1 to 500 dollars my friend was like ok. Then a few days later he was like 3 (no idea where 3 people are coming from.) of you should be able to come up with 1500 dollars when I realized what he meant I called my friend and told her. Jim then gave me this note stating what was owed which was not 6000. He started calling me at my work saying that he was going to take me to court b/c i signed the check and that was like signing a contract and I was thinking ya maybe if I lived there. then he called again and asked what she was going to do that i had 5 mins to figure it out. so i quickly called my friend and she told me that it did not seem right and go to court so he called back and was like what is going on and I told him there was no way she owed this much money, what happened tot he money I gave you before, he said that went to utilities, which didn’t make sense. Being in the position I was in had no choice then to say take me to court.

The next few days I was at work when he was working and he got really upset at work calling me a liar and thief yelling at a supervisor when she told him we all know who your talking about and to calm down that made him get even madder. This caused the GM of the company to talk to him about that incident and he said it never happened. A few months later my phone got fixed
