In this case it’s the owner of a sign company in Victoria that screwed up and then sued someone over it.
Now if it was me, I’d take the L and just move on from there, but this Victoria company didn’t want to do that. The resident who was being sued ended up countersuing for $3,000, claiming “emotional distress and mental anxiety” due to the incident.Reading this entire tribunal decision was exhausting. It smells like the company was mad it had to refund the original customer and decided to punish an innocent homeowner who didn’t ask for a ginormous sign left on her lawn.
In fact, the decision says the sign appears to have been “tidily folded” although it was technically damaged in the process.
