For die-hard "Storage Wars" fans, you might notice something strange about Season 4: Dave Hester wasn't in it. That's because he and A&E were in the middle of a legal battle, resulting in the network firing Dave for one season.
In 2012, after three seasons on the show, Dave decided to file a complaint with the Los Angeles Superior Court against A&E and Original Production, claiming everything about the show was staged. In the lawsuit, Dave admitted he no longer wanted to be a part of this charade. A&E wasn't pleased about this, especially since the show was just starting to peak in popularity. As a result, the company terminated Dave, who turned around and sued A&E and Original Productions for $750,000 over wrongful termination.
Thankfully for fans, Dave and A&E came to a settlement, and The Mogul was able to return to the show for another eight seasons, and maybe more.
