is taking a person to smal claims court worth the time?
This personused ti be my friend and I didn't know she wasn't but doesn't want to communicate. I helped her in many ways but mainly financially. She was evicted witb 2 dogs I did what I could and way moore I paid for two nites of Motel fees and that was a gift (one of many )...but than she wouldn't stop bugging me and her sister would too about paying one moore night and so on .I ended up paying 10nights becouse I told her I would under the condition that she would pay me how she could over a period of 6 months and that meantime I would take her tv as collateral but said that she didn't trus the motel I was stYing and that was her excuse not knowing it was just an excuse than.Reason I did this is becouse I had recived a good lumpsome of money and she new this and had been buying her food items taking her places and partying all on me wich i did becouse as sbe would call me " best friends " she new i would be broke sooner or later and i use to tell her if we have each other it wont be as bad and she would agreed.Time has come im out of money and ideas she sold the tv and never paid me but also has ignored me and has not made an effort to just be there for me as she was when i had money. All i have is my debit documantation and both Motel attendends knew i was paying for this lady and looked at me as wanting to ask me Why would I one day i actually said oh this days im paying she will pY me back and if not I will keep her tv..She collects disabily I have nothing no unemployment or welfare but i do have 2 kids and my dog. I am so sad I can not believe she has actually faked evrything I am hurt beyond just my pockets. I i didnt get conpensated at list just so she new what she did is very wrong becouse till this very day has yet to even care if im homless and this is the same person that used she agreed and so I paid knwing that one day I would be out of money I told her that as long as we had our friendship we could bare things so much better.

Your chances are not good without something in writing. If you can get one of the motel attendants to show up to court with you or if you can get some sort of written statement from them, you might have a shot at getting something, but to be completely honest, this is going to be a very hard one to win. You kept giving her more after she wasn't paying you back. She'll say it was a gift. Real court doesn't always work like Judge Judy. A former landlord of mine refused to give me my security deposit back even though I had the apartment cleaned really well and nothing was broken. When I took her to court, she lied and said that I left a huge mess. Apparently, there was "spaghetti all over the walls" I had pictures showing that I didn't leave a mess and she had no proof other than a "cleaning bill" that had clearly been created with Microsoft Word on her computer and wasn't even signed. The judge decided to just award her with what she wanted and us with what we wanted and after it was all said and done, we got $40. Hardly worth it. My advice to you is to cut your losses and move on. Your money isn't coming back. I learned some big lessons from my experience and I'm sure that you have as well. Take that as your reward and never speak to this person again. What happened to you is terrible, but unfortunately, there's not much that you can do about it. I wish that I had good news to tell you and I'm sorry if my response was a huge bummer, but that's just the way it is. Good luck.
