What is the name of your state? California
I lived in a condo, and the guy who lived below me informed me that water from my bathroom seeked through his bathroom ceiling causing damages.
I paid him $700.00 to get it fixed. Later, I find out that he pocketed the money. I had moved, and I find out that he's trying to use the same scam on the new tenants.
I believe I have a good case to get my $700.00 back.
I have a few questions:
1. I like to know if I can also sue for punitive damages since he committed fraud.
2. Also, can I sue for attorney fees.
3. About how much does it cause to file a civil case?
4. What can I expect in the process of civil litigation?
5. The guy is a real jerk, is there anything else that I can do?
