In Hot Bench season 4 episode 70, titled "Odometer Rollback Roulette?!; Slumlord or Squatter Victim?", two different cases are heard in the courtroom. The first case involves a man who claims that he was sold a car with an incorrect odometer reading, which has resulted in a loss of value for the vehicle. The defendant in this case, the previous owner of the car, denies any wrongdoing and refuses to take responsibility for the error.
The judges carefully consider the evidence presented by both parties, including documentation of the car's history and testimony from witnesses. As they deliberate, they must determine whether the plaintiff's claims are valid and if the defendant should be held accountable for the incorrect odometer reading. This case brings up important questions about consumer protection and the responsibilities of used car sellers when it comes to providing accurate information about their products.
The second case deals with a dispute between a tenant and their landlord.

The landlord, on the other hand, argues that the tenant was in violation of their lease agreement and was illegally squatting in the property. The judges must review the lease agreement, photos of the property, and testimony from both parties to determine who is at fault in this case.
As the court proceedings continue, tensions rise between the parties involved. The judges must carefully weigh the evidence and make a fair and just decision that takes into account the rights and responsibilities of both the tenant and landlord. This case highlights the importance of maintaining safe and habitable living conditions for tenants, as well as the need for landlords to uphold their legal obligations.
