I have a friend who broke my phone, agreed to pay for the replacement, and is now refusing to pay in a timely manner. This situation has caused me significant emotional distress, including suicidal thoughts and the need to return to therapy. I am located in Tennessee. Can I include emotional distress in my small claims court case, and how do I calculate the amount? Additionally, if the person has a bench warrant for their arrest, could they be arrested at court for the warrant? If the person who broke my phone is financially supported by another individual, can I name that individual as a defendant in the case?
