On One Knee with a Used Engagement Ring

The plaintiff says after he started dating the defendant, he encouraged her to pursue her singing career. The first time he missed one of her concerts, the defendant stayed the night at a friend’s house and ignored his calls. The plaintiff is suing the defendant for breach of contract and legal fees after he put up his personal money to support her business and career. The defendant says four months after she started performing again, her relationship with the plaintiff became rocky because he neglected her and proposed to her with his ex’s ring. She’s countersuing for unpaid rent.
