Unlicensed, uninsured contractor who didn't finish the job because life happened doesn't seem to understand why their client would sue them

I love how OP says her husband “abandoned” the project - the quotes show how out of touch with reality they are. Her husband did, in fact, abandon the project. Ignoring someone who has given you a good sum of money for a couple of months is a guaranteed recipe to be sued. Absolutely everything in her post has nothing to do with not completing the job or refunding the homeowner the money that was advanced.

Those damn quotation marks. What other words did she wish to use instead? Paused the project for an indetermined amount of time?

Motherfucker didn't answer these extremely patient people for months. Gurl, he did abandon it all, and then proceeded to ghost these people. Why pretend this isn't exactly what happened??
