|||||
Overview: Defendant was not entitled to relief based on absence of "marked" ten dollar bill, as he suffered little or no prejudice from its absence and cross-examined Commonwealth's witnesses regarding absence. Prosecutor's statements did not constitute improper vouching because prosecutor did not express personal belief in the credibility of the witnesses.

|||||
Overview: Defendant's stringing plaintiff along with false promises of payment to induce further performance was an unfair and deceptive practice that violated Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 93A. As egregious nature of defendant's conduct was mitigated by some overpayments plaintiff received, the latter's damages, as found by jury, were doubled rather than tripled.
