Heading: Living expenses and veterinary bills

Text: Wright testified that when she and Dropik lived together she paid for the mortgage and utilities, including the phone bill. Dropik testified that, when he moved in, the two had an agreement that he “would pay for everything that [they] do, and [he] wouldn’t pay [Wright] rent,” and that they acted consistently with this agreement. Dropik tallied the amount he contributed to over $134,000, which included travel, house maintenance, dining out, and miscellaneous purchases. The parties testified that Dropik would put veterinary bills for Wright’s dog-breeding business on his credit card to receive airline miles; the parties disputed whether Wright promised to pay him back. Dropik testified that Wright had owed him $10,600 for outstanding veterinary bills and had partially paid him back in two installments of $2,000.
