[All Episodes Talk: All Rise]

4 p.m. episodes-

First (2014)-

Three’s a Crowd -Plaintiff/ suing Jordan Bianco suing defendant /former roommate Mary Stanko for unpaid rent security deposit and utiliies.    Plaintiff and girlfriend Kirsten Paskett, were two roommates, and plaintiff is suing defendant for her portion of the rent (50% because plaintiff and girlfriend shared a room).      Plaintiff’s girlfriend and defendant didn’t get along, and so defendant moved out.   

Original agreement is claimed by plaintiff girlfriend was half paid by them, but defendant claims she was originally told she would pay 1/3 of rent and utilities.   When defendant moved out on 1 May she was going to pay the rent, but when she went to pay up, and pick up her stuff, plaintiff Kirsten would only give Mary her stuff when she paid her more money. 

Plaintiffs aren’t getting security back, because new roommate will pay Jordan back for the security deposit.   New roommate will pay half of the rent.  

Did all three litigants go shopping together?  

Plaintiff girlfriend claims she found out defendant was going to move out without notice, and that caused the argument.   Audrey the roommate helped plaintiff sort through and lock up Mary’s stuff. Audrey was the fourth roommate, and was the woman living there until Mary moved out.  

$335 to plaintiffs, for the one month’s unpaid rent, when Mary’s friend was still there, and some of the friend’s stuff is still in the apartment, so plaintiffs will get even more rent.   

$415 to plaintiffs.

Moving Out Madness -Plaintiff Cassandra Allen suing defendant Douglas Marks rent late fees and cleaning fees.   Roommates were plaintiff, and her husband Billy, and defendant, were all on the lease, and renting one or two rooms from someone else in a house.  All three lived together for three years before everything fell apart.  (This was in Mission Hills, CA)

Defendant didn’t give 30-day’s notice to move out to live with his girlfriend, but he claims plaintiff husband Billy told him to move out. 

However, $900 rent to plaintiff, because even though defendant claimed he would move after April, but he was still there in June, and his stuff was still in the house until almost the end of July.   Defendant says Cassandra wouldn’t let him take his stuff out of the house.

Plaintiff receives two month’s rent $1800.

Second (2014)-

Drinking and Driving House Sitter -Plaintiff Deon Dionne suing defendant/former house sitter Paulino Cervantes   for car damages, house and furniture damages, and claims defendant drank a lot of her wine.   Defendant claims he only drank two bottles of cheap wine, didn’t damage the house or furniture, and car wasn’t damaged by him.    Defendant claims since he was given keys to move car from one side of street to another, and he claims that was the same as permission to use the car.    Defendant claims he didn’t cause the car damages to bottom of door, right side of car, or bumper.   Plaintiff claims defendant told her the damages happened driving to and from Pomona.   

Estimate for car damages are $1401, but estimate was $2011, and that defendant paid her $700.  She wants money for a week’s car rental also.

Plaintiff says she had six to eight bottles of wine gone, and wine was spilled on the couch.  

Plaintiff gets $1401 for car damages.

Traffic Ticket Pile-Up! -Plaintiff Jaymi Algeo suing defendant Veronica Grimes for traffic tickets, and other damages from a car plaintiff was selling to a third party, who resold vehicle to defendant’s boyfriend, and then defendant was driving.   Plaintiff sold her car to another man, who didn’t reregister the car, and he sold it to defendant’s boyfriend, and then defendant was buying it.    Then, the notices from the traffic tickets started, and nine months later car still wasn’t registered in defendant’s name, and no insurance.   

Plaintiff couldn’t renew her own car registration because of the outstanding tickets.  Defendant is counter suing because plaintiff stole her car. 

Plaintiff was arrested for stealing her own car, when she took her car back from defendant.  Defendant had been driving car for 10 months, without insurance or registration.   Defendant says car was impounded as stolen and unregistered, and wants impound and damage fees, dismissed.   When defendant saw car was gone, she called police and reported it stolen, so plaintiff was arrested for stealing her own car. 

Tickets are up to $100 each.  Plaintiff wants money for arrest, and she couldn’t renew her license.

Plaintiff receives $2500.

Three’s a Crowd -Plaintiff Caroline Kindred is suing defendants /roommates Jessica Ruth and Kayla McCarter for return of her security deposit.   Plaintiff’s credit wasn’t approved, but her father was her co-signer.   Plaintiff moved in with the agreement that no one would use her bathroom, and found someone else’s stuff, so she moved out before she actually moved in, but some of her stuff was still there, so she owes rent.    Plaintiff wants her share of $1066 security deposit back, and rent $687

$363 for security to plaintiff and that’s it.

5 p.m. episodes-

First (2017)-

Teen Joyriders Busted by Police-Plaintiffs, Rhiannon Torgerson, mother and son Tajauan Tyler , suing defendant mother Kerri McCoy, and son Marcus McCoy for a share of restitution money to fix a truck.   Defendant son says plaintiff son picked him up in the middle of the night in defendant's mother's truck.   Plaintiff son says that defendant son came over to plaintiff's house in the middle of the night.       Plaintiff says defendant picked him up on his motorcycle, and then they took defendant's mother's truck for joyriding.  (I realize that the stories don't make sense, but they never do).    Plaintiff criminal stole, and drove the truck, and went joyriding.   Plaintiff criminal is blaming defendant criminal for the crash.   

Both sons were arrested, they claim both for the first time, and they plead guilty to truck theft, and each pay restitution for the truck $4330 ($2165 each).      Defendant mother refused to pay the restitution.    Payment of restitution by both would result in case being sealed and expunged.   Plaintiff paid all of the restitution so her criminal can play basketball or something at school.    Plaintiff demanded defendant sign a letter that she had repaid the restitution, and plaintiff criminal could play sports.

Another wrinkle, defendant criminal violated probation, charged with vandalism, and violation of house arrest, so he was again arrested.   Even if defendant pays restitution, defendant criminal will not get his record expunged, because he reoffended the next month.    Defendant mother still thinks her criminal son will get his record expunged, but as JJ explains, son reoffended, and won't get expunged or sealed records.    Plaintiff mother doesn't care about what her son did, just that he can bounce a ball around.   Defendant mother just lied to JJ, about son's second arrest. 

The plaintiff paid with a credit card, and waited six months to pay the restitution, but the court holds the payment for 90 days, because the credit card holder can dispute the charges.    However, plaintiff mother paid both sides, and gets $2165 from defendant.  

$2165 to plaintiff.     

Uninsured Boy Friend Destroys Car-Plaintiff Letrishia Tyson suing defendant/ her daughter Adrienne Tyson for tow bill. Defendant is counter suing for moving expenses.    Plaintiff bought new car, sold old car to daughter for $2700 (insurance continued in plaintiff's name).    Then two months later defendant's boyfriend was driving the car, and totaled it.    Because defendant's boyfriend, Devante Evans, wasn't licensed, and wasn't named on the insurance, insurance didn't pay for the damages.   

Plaintiff told daughter, it was her fault, and to pay the car off, and she did.   Plaintiff got a bill from the tow yard for storing the car for a year, for over $3,000+.    Defendant's witness is the same idiot boyfriend. 

As JJ says, daughter paid off the car, but since plaintiff was legal owner, she's the only one who could get the car out of the tow yard impound. 

Mother and daughter moved after the accident, and daughter wants moving costs.  She couldn't drive because of a C-section, how heartwarming. 

Plaintiff case dismissed.   Defendant's stupid case dismissed.   

Second (2017)-

Ex-Girlfriend Escape Caught on Tape!  -Plaintiff Orlando Hernandez  suing defendant/ex-girlfriend Montiel Reeves for intentionally damaging his property, and assault.  Plaintiff says defendant invaded his apartment, after they broke up (plaintiff was in jail for six months, and they broke up before his unfortunate incarceration).  Plaintiff claims his friend was at his apartment playing video games, while plaintiff was walking his dog.    This is the second time defendant invaded his apartment.   

Defendant ex-girlfriend scares me, and her girlfriend witness is off too.   Plaintiff hasn't been on a date with defendant for over three years (she was 17 then, and is now 20).     Plaintiff was walking his pit bull/Dingo mix (I suspect this is an American Dingo cross, not an Australian Dingo) when the ex-girlfriend broke into the apartment.     Defendant claims she didn't force her way into the apartment, but came over for money.

When plaintiff friend called and told him the defendant was in his apartment.    Plaintiff cares for his disabled (double amputee) father, and is paid as a caregiver.   While in prison, plaintiff completed his GED.   

Video is submitted of the assault, and loco actions of the defendant.  Video shows the apartment with defendant singing, screaming, and acting high.   Defendant was breaking the window out, and you can see that on video.   The assault by defendant is shown too, and recorded.  

Plaintiff wanted a restraining order, but was refused.   Defendant wanted $20, and claims plaintiff lured her to his apartment for sex, and would pay her $20, and wouldn't let her leave.   What a liar she is. 

Defendant was given a protective order by the court.    (I won't go into details, but defendant has quite the record since this case aired).   I know who I think the victim is here, and it's not the defendant.

Plaintiff claims defendant came through the bedroom window, not via the front door.  Plaintiff looks so confused with JJ reads defendant's lying statement to the court.  Defendant told police that she went out the window to escape, and called the police make a false report to cover herself. 

I really hope that plaintiff is doing well now.  

 Plaintiff receives $956. $500 was for the assault, and the $456 was for the window and headphones (Plaintiff broke the number one rule of dating, ‘never sleep with anyone crazier than you are’)

Show Me the Money Trail!-Plaintiff Tynikki Burkitt suing contractor/defendant Joseph Mannino for return of her deposit on work he never performed.     Defendant/contractor says plaintiff made an insurance claim, received $6500, and then found a cheaper company to do the work.    $2500 deposit was paid to contractor, and plaintiff wants it back.   JJ wants to see the paid bill or check paid to contractor that did the job.  Plaintiff says she hasn't completed the bathroom repair, so she brought her suit prematurely.     JJ will explain why suit is premature.  

Defendant says the insurance check was negotiated with the insurance company, so JJ needs to find out how much the other company is charging for the bathroom.   (JJ surmises that the defendant padded the bill to cover the deductible).   

 JJ says the $6500 was insurance payout, and giving the $2500 back is not warranted, because that would be enrichment.   Plaintiff case dismissed.

Plaintiff receives $956.

(This week the 5 pm episodes are all 2017, but next week the 5 pm episodes are all 2012.  That should be interesting).

Had it serviced in August - guess he turned it off.  I don't know how to do the pilot light and am afraid of gas - as in leak or explosion, so will wait for the plumber and find out  what to do tomorrow.   I've only been here a year, didn't have this issue in my former house.

Get one of the fireplace lighters, and have the plumber show you how to light it.    It's easy, I've done it, so you know it's easy.

$70,000 for feet pics?! Maybe I have found my new career. LOL. 

I know someone who found out her daughter was on Only fans, and a few other sites, and she was totally shocked.   Then, the mother was stunned again when she found out how much she was making a month, and in her mid-20's her daughter bought a huge house for cash, paid off her student loans, and other investments too.    

[Renovation Island - General Discussion]

I can't believe Bryan actually said that the RV that's only supposed to be there for loading and unloading will be outside for almost two weeks, and they'll just see if the management of the village will give them a citation.   That McMansion they're building is so close to the neighbors.     The overhead shot of the house shows how close it is to the neighbors

No surprise, Brian discusses giant decisions with Adam, and later with his wife.   No shock that they either want to keep going, or  get a partner, or sell out entirely.   My guess is they'll sell out, that's what they always do when they've exhausted all possible TV series money for a project. 

I can't believe how much time and money they spent on the office build out, and the hangar.   They should have finished the inside of the house first, then they could park the RV elsewhere until the hangar was finished, and they were living in comfort in the house. 

So, they want to finish, but keep ripping tile out, adding arches, and who knows how many other changes.    This isn't how you do a gut remodel.   

You order the windows long before you start, and if those aren't available, you look around for other ones, and for other finishes you go to the supplier, find out what's in stock, and pick one.   It's not that hard.   

So, they finished enough of the girl's bedrooms for the parents, and 4 kids can move in to the two bedrooms.   So, they have rolling clothing racks, so why are they cramming everything into the girls' closets and built in bureaus?    Just leave the hanging stuff on the rolling racks, and the two girls can hang and store their stuff.    And now instead of finishing things, Bryan's putting in a huge fish tank.   And talking about partnering with some dude ranch company in Utah to do a remodel.    Did the potential partners ever watch any TV show these people have done?  

[Hot Bench - General Discussion]

I read that Acker and Dimango are leaving the show for a new one with Officer Byrd, leaving only Corriero on hot bench.    "Tribunal" will also have JJ's son Mark Levy on the panel.  

They are supposed to add two new judges to work with Corriero.  That should be interesting to see new judges.   

(It's also very pleasant not to hear Levin and his awful puns on this show). 

New 26 Sept, "Boats and Nos"

Plaintiff Sherwood and partner Zach bought a 30 ft sailboat from defendant.  Plaintiffs put down insurance, and docking for the boat, and put $2500 down on the $10k price.   Then, defendant claims he found out Zach, an employee of his at the boat yard, damaged the boat belonging to defendant, that Zach was living on.  

Sherwood claims she was going to use the boat with her teen son, not her business partner Zach.   Defendant says he repo's boats, but doesn't mention he had to pay off a lien on the boat, and deal fell through.      Defendant blames the resale delay on DMV and Covid, so he cancelled the sale, it would take too long. 

Corriero really hates the defendant, but everyone but Acker seems to.   In sales agreement defendant says he's the owner, but he wasn't the owner until the lien was paid off and transfer went through DMV.     Acker calls defendant charming, she must be having hallucinations. 

I think defendant is a total fraud.   

Decision, plaintiff gets $5,000, including punitive damages. 

Defendant's ridiculous counterclaim is dismissed, because he's a liar. 

Rerun "New Roommate Nightmare" 2022

Plaintiff Pehrson vs. Rivera, former roommates.  Plaintiff needed a new roommate, and found defendant.   They were supposed to pay 1/2 utilities, and $900 a month each for rent.   Plaintiff claims defendant didn't pay rent, utilities, and was just an awful roommater.   Defendant says plaintiff harassed her, took defendant's bedroom door off, and other obnoxious acts.   They were only roommates for three months.   After they had a flood in the apartment, plaintiff offered to use part of her renter's insurance to help defendant with the shortfall in rent, because defendant didn't get renter's insurance.   

Plaintiff took the doors off of defendant's bedroom, after defendant didn't pay rent or utilities.  Defendant claims she worked around the clock, had two jobs, and severe anxiety, so she didn't pay anything. Defendant claims plaintiff gave her an anxiety attack by demanding the money plaintiff was owed. 

Plaintiff shows pictures of damages.  Defendant went to the emergency room five or six times in three months.   

Plaintiff wants to get paid for her time she spent putting her case together.   That's not happening. 

How did the two women get on an apartment lease?   Defendant's only 19 and neither one seems to have a well paying job. 

(My guess is the apartment is in a really bad neighborhood, and landlord has a hard time getting tenants to pay the rent they want.)

Decision is plaintiff gets everything but the filing fee, $995. 

[Jenny & Sumit: Slumdog Thousandaire]

Remember with her 10 year visa, she still has to leave for a while, every six months, so I bet she combined that with the Tell Nothing, and a family visit.   

I had to laugh at the preview of Jenny saying she wanted to try for a U.S. spouse visa for Michael Jones/Sumit, or whoever he is this week.    She would have to talk someone into sponsoring Sumit, and she can't even finance her own place to live, if the couch surfing story was true, and I'm not betting it was, and she needs a new car too.

I only consider it break up hair when the person combines color and a radical haircut.    

[Help! I Wrecked My House - General Discussion]

I really think a lot of the homeowners are doing the mess they claim they've been living with right before the audition video.   I think a lot of previous season's homes were flip homes.    I would love to see someone follow up, and see who is living in the fixed up homes, and how many were sold after the show.

On 9/24/2022 at 10:53 AM, Chippings said:

Well, Saturday again and the website posts the shows for next week -- Clearly the new season is going to be discussions of social issues, as there hasn't been an individual one last week or next.  (The show about college fraternity hazing, which I didn't watch, had the one story [heartbreaking] featured but did I think focus on the custom generally.)

So, no catfish stories, and that was my main interest.

Someone above mentioned their having cut their staff, which I hadn't heard about.   It all doesn't look promising.  I'm guessing that others are like me and not drawn to the one-and two-episode 'discussion' shows?

My understanding is the shows like Phil's are all pitched by individual segment producers, and the show staff simply pick the ones they want to air.   Then, they give Phil a briefing sheet outlining what the script is, and the show segment producer has already booked the guests, the experts, polygraph or whatever, and everything is ready to go so Phil or whoever the host is, just reads the script.  

I saw a rerun on OWN this morning, a woman in Utah inherited a mansion in Utah from her parents, with lots of land, and apparently insurance and other proceeds.   She has sent $1 million to some scammer in Nigeria.   Phil and the viewers proved the man was a phony, and she said she believed it, but I think she was lying about dumping the scammer and not sending him more money.    The funny thing was the staff of the show tried for weeks to identify the picture the scammer was using and couldn't, then they put it out on the show FB page, and had an answer in a couple of hours.  

[Good Bones - General Discussion]

I think Mina's idea is the various short term rentals will be a good income for her kids.  She's probably right about that, since Indiana law says no city or county can limit short term rentals.  The short term market in Indianapolis is fantastic from the Indy 500 month of May, all of the sports teams located there, and many big events happen there. 

 I just feel sorry for the people who live near their rentals, unless they have better parking than it looks like they do.   I can't imagine living next to Charlotte Hall, during a wedding or other big event.  

I also hated the photos I saw of the carriage house 'garage doors' with huge clear panels.   When they have anything in the main house or yard, people will be able to see if you're inside, and maybe drop in.  Main house and carriage house rented by the same person, rents for $1200 a night, and carriage house only  for $800.  Main house has 5 suites, and carriage house has 3 suites.

I am in the minority here.  I did not hate it--as long as they keep it to a one and done.  I thought the products were better than some they showed recently.  I liked that they used the old Millionaire music for the poll--it was funny.

I would be interested in the pizza product.  No kids, so no knowledge of the booger thing, but it seemed like a big problem to the public.

Just be careful with the Pizza Pack on Amazon or other websites, there are competitors and they're a little cheaper, but the reviews for other ones aren't as good (complaints about missing pieces, etc).    They say the white container doesn't stain, but I ordered black so I don't have to worry at all.  The Pizza Pack guy does still sell the Cheese Chopper (or whatever it's called), so I guess Kevin's idea to take that out behind the barn and put it down wasn't taken.  

It was good to see all of the Sharks together again.   But the crowd was too raucous, some were playing to the crowd too much (Mark), and the constant shouting was bad.   I think Daymond was losing his voice at the end.    I hope Oogiebear Booger remover doesn't end up another Tipsy Elves with constant updates.  

I hope Barbara's not going to wear the same outfit all season. 

[House Hunters - General Discussion]

The OWN reruns today are apparently all "people with strange requests, even for this show".  

To Fix or Not to Fix in Wisconsin, Racine, Wisconsin.    She doesn't want a house near a cornfield, because "she's afraid of the children who will come out of it".    That has to be a joke, right?   She also doesn't want a front garage, but she's not going to be shoveling the longer driveway that comes with a side garage is she? 

This was a 2012 episode, you have to wonder what's happened since then.  She hates the antiqued cream color French Country cabinets.   My neighbor across the street paid a lot extra to get the same cabinets a few years ago. So, house #1, husband wants a theater room, and there's a bunch of furniture and a huge TV piled in the basement.  That was a set up, that's not the house they bought.

I agree with no cornfield, because when the corn gets harvested, the mice want in your house for food and for the winter.  However, I doubt a bunch of horror movie characters will be advancing out of the corn.    A bigger worry is if the farmer sells out to a developer, and hundreds of apartments or townhouses, or homes on tiny lots move in. 

Gasp!  House #2 is by a corn field.    House #2 also has a dumpster in the driveway, so no surprise when that's their house.  It also has a front garage.   

[House Hunters - General Discussion]

I think that the charm of their rekindled relationship will fade once the reality of the place they bought fades.   The man's idea about expanding the tandem garage to a double was laughable.  She was never going to move to Oakland, so why didn't they just show a third option in San Francisco?     

My question is still about value for insurance.   They bought for over $400k over asking, so I'm guessing the appraisal was probably higher, but certainly not that much.    Does the difference between appraisal and insured value go for what they paid?   Or is it the appraised value?   

With my houses, the insurance company received a copy of the appraisal, and that's what they based my insurance on.  With the Victorian, they paid so much over list, that there is no way the house appraisal was equal to that.  

Also, I wonder if they did really did have access to the garage?   The realtor saying the two owners of the units would each have keys, and swap the cars around is ridiculous.   Or if the ridiculous price they paid was to get total access to the garage, and also the back yard?   I bet the garage is owned by either the house hunter's unit, or the upstairs unit, and I bet the back yard space goes with the house hunter's unit.     There is nowhere on that property to expand the garage.    

I agree with other posters, the flat was priced to get a bidding war, and it did. 

[My Lottery Dream Home - General Discussion]

New "South Beach Birth Rite", after an inheritance from her parents, Miami native Julie wants a vacation condo in South Beach.   They live in Flagler Beach now.  Condo is for Julie and Jim. She's shopping with her best friend., Bobbi. 

Condo 1- Ribbonttail Road, in South Beach, Art Deco, 675  sq ft $295K, 1 Bed 1 bath, condo is cute.  It comes with the furniture.  Condo. Parking behind the building.

Condo 2-Sailbay Central, HOA $700+, resort style living, 1 bed 1 bath 850 sq ft, $439k, the building lobby is gorgeous, with a fantastic pool, and view of the water. View from the condo is water/bayside.   Small balcony, but great view, the living room has a Murphy Bed. plus the main bedroom is big, with a great view too. bathroom has a glassed-in tiled tub shower combo.  Lots of amenities. 

Condo 3-Amberjack Abode, two story townhouse 4 blocks from the beach, 2 bedrooms 1.5 baths,  802 sq ft,  $445k.   I love this one, open floor plan, hardwood floors, laundry room/half bath, full bath upstairs with huge shower.  2 bedrooms upstairs and kind of small, both bedrooms the same size.  

She chooses #2.   They faked me out with the remark about #1 coming with the furniture, but all three were furnished.     

[S14.E01: LIVE!]

Only 3 pitches, but all interesting. Mark, Daymond, Lori, Kevin, Robert, Barbara.

1-KENT-underwear and t-shirts that are compostable, decomposes in 90 days, you can do it on your compost pile, or send them to the company.   Daymond makes the deal. 

2-Oogie Bear-Fantastic margins, booger remover, and other baby health devices.  Who would think five sharks would be fighting over a booger remover?   They do have a useful looking product line.     I've never heard Booger said so many times on TV in my life.   Deal is Robert, and Barbara.

3-Pizza Pack (same man who pitched the Cheese Chopper, no deal, but it's still selling).  It's a fridge pack for pizza, either a slice or the whole pizza, dividers keep slices separate, and you can use the dividers for plates, or put the whole pack in the microwave with a vented hood to stop soggy pizza.     Mark offers over $1,5  million for the whole company.  The seller said it would cost $5 million for him to sell Mark the entire company.     Lori makes a good offer.   Lori makes the deal with the seller, doesn't try to buy the company.  Did anyone ask if there are competitors?   There certainly are on Amazon, the competitors are cheaper too, but the competitors reviews from buyers are not as good. You can get a Cheese Chopper on there too.    Yes, I ordered one, of the original Pizza Packs.    It's not easy to determine which one is the original on that site. 

The preview looks good for the rest of the season, except I'm not watching Gwyneth Paltrow. 

I didn't like the screaming audience, the text polls were ridiculous,   What was Barbara wearing?   She should get another stylist. 

(Thanks DEL901, I fixed the price for Mark's Pizza Pack offer.    I hated the live version, and hope they never do that again.    I don't watch this for screaming free-for-alls with everyone going wild to try to make the deal.    Also, their TV makeup looked really odd when the sharks weren't exactly in their chairs.  I'm sure they selected three products they knew the sharks would fight over, and that's wrong.)

[All Episodes Talk: All Rise]

4 p.m. episodes-

First (2014)-

The Anguish of Ex-Lovers -Plaintiff Seneca Woods suing defendant Chiki Wuous (Mother of Two Children with plaintiff, SSMOT-Sainted Single Mother of Two) attorney fees, overpayment of child support, harassment, and assault.    Defendant says plaintiff was abusive, but as JJ says, why did she have another kid with him?  Children are 12 and 5-years-old.   Litigants never married, but defendant is now married to someone else.   Child support was $500 a month for the two children, through garnishment.    Plaintiff says he paid child support, but his wages were garnished anyway.  

Then I guess the Child Support Fairy did the garnishment.   Plaintiff was laid off by that company, and order was vacated because defendant wanted a change in support, and in court mother/defendant was evasive about her income, so child support order was vacated.   Child support was later taken from plaintiff’s disability, and unemployment.   Amazing coincidence is that when plaintiff was laid off, he coincidentally received the disability, and unemployment.  

The litigants have 50/50 custody, so why would anyone pay child support

Disability ended, and plaintiff is currently unemployed.   Plaintiff is now living with his fiance, and he hasn’t worked since November 2013.

Plaintiff case dismissed.

World Cup Woes -Plaintiff Christian Corea (woman) suing defendant Edward Jackiewicz for the return of a deposit for a defendant’s condo in Brazil during the World Cup.    Plaintiff says she only gave a deposit because it was refundable.    Defendant’s email doesn’t say it’s refundable, but the middle man in Brazil is the one the deposit was paid to, and it’s not refundable. 

So, the woman in Brazil is the one who made the contract with plaintiff.   So, plaintiff isn’t owed a refund by defendant.   There are three people going to Brazil for the event, and stay at the same condo.   However, defendant and his partner did do partial refunds to others.  

The two other people put down the same $700 deposit, two others plaintiff was going with dropped out also.   Two others are going to the other part of the trip to the condo.   

Plaintiff told no guarantee of refund in the contract. Originally six people signed up, and don’t have the entire time booked for the entire time of the World Cup.  It’s too confusing to figure out.   Plaintiff’s ex-boyfriend received a partial refund from defendants, but he didn’t split the money with plaintiff. So, plaintiff should be suing her ex-boyfriend for half of the refund he received.

Condo is $1000 a night, and the cost per night is split among the people who stay there during that period.

Ex-boyfriend received $1400 refund, but didn’t give any money to plaintiff.  Defendants say they have no contact information for plaintiff, just the ex-boyfriend.

Plaintiff’s lawsuit is premature.   The cause of action is against the boyfriend for the refund, but the defendants will only know when the World Cup happens, how many people are staying at the condo for each night, to know how much plaintiff should get.  (I hope that’s clear, I remember this case, and it’s a mess). 

Plaintiff case dismissed without prejudice to bring later.   Plaintiff may get a refund after the trip is over, and the World Cup ends.     The middle person in Brazil said it was refundable, not defendant.

Second (2014)-

Friendship, Finances and Flirting -Plaintiff Dennis Simion suing defendant Dennis Bremer for a loan to pay rent and bills.      Defendant is told to introduce his witnesses, girlfriend Sunshine Hunter and his landlord Jane Pederson.  Defendant Sunshine claims she saw Simion give Bremer cash to pay defendants’ bills.   Defendant witness Sunshine, has three kids, with other people, not with defendant.    The money exchange was on a county road near plaintiff’s home, according to Sunshine.    $1400 is the loan amount, in $1000 one payment, and $400 later. (Augusta, WI is where this happened).

Plaintiff Simion says defendant, girlfriend, her three kids, and others, and landlord told defendants to leave when he found out how many people were living in his house.   Loan was claimed to be for $1000 security, and $800 a month for rent.   However, Bremer claims he had a bonus due from his previous company.  Bremer quit, with no job.   Bremer claims he cashed his 401 K in for some money.   How does someone who has no job, with a girlfriend with her three kids who has no job, get a rental house?  Defendant claims the HR lady at the previous company sent him a bonus.

Defendant’s witness told defendant that plaintiff made advances to her, and derogatory remarks. $2400 is what plaintiff loaned them.   Plus, $1000 to put a transmission in defendant’s girlfriend’s car to keep or get a job.  Defendant Bremer’s own father called defendant a liar. 

Landlord testifies that she got a phone call from some man, telling her that her tenants were cooking meth, and would blow up her house.    Defendant doesn’t know who called her. Defendants are counter claiming for harassment about the phone call, and the assault on defendant girlfriend.    Then, defendant Bremer claims after he paid nothing to plaintiff that plaintiff confronted him on his way to the library.

$3,000 to plaintiff, nothing for the lying defendant, and witnesses.

Designer Jeans Disaster -Plaintiffs Jodi Davis and business partner Catherine Goodman suing defendant  Don Valenzuela over designer jeans plaintiffs were buying from manufacturers that were arranged by defendant.    The jeans delivered by defendant’s companies are so tiny that no one could wear them.  This case is hysterical when JJ measures the waist band of the tiny jeans, at 24 inches.  (24 inch waist is size 5, or XXS and that’s before washing and possible shrinkage).

 Jeans were supposed to be sold for $60 to $80 a pair, according to defendant, and Jeans were $39, wholesale.    300 jeans were manufactured, 140 delivered because of lace inserts (I don’t understand anything about this part of the case).  The 23 labelled waist, is actually 24, and fits defendant’s 9-year-old daughter, except they’re too long.   Plaintiff claims jeans were  supposed to be 25 inches at the waist.  The plaintiffs can’t measure the jeans, so JJ has to do it.   Defendant wants to be paid for the other jeans he already ordered, I guess the ones awaiting the lace inserts.  

Plaintiffs paid over $11k for 300 pairs of jeans.   The 140 jeans were delivered to plaintiffs, and the other 160 is waiting for the lace.  

$5,000 to plaintiffs.

First (2017)-

Family Business Money Triangle-Plaintiff stepdaughter Natasha Franklin is suing stepmother, Charmain Franklin for an unpaid loan, and a false restraining order.  Defendant is stepmother to plaintiff.  Defendant says the loan is being paid back, and she didn't miss any payments.    Plaintiff, Erick Franklin, is husband of defendant, and father of plaintiff (soon to be ex-husband, there is no legal separation in Florida, so I hope defendant sped up the process of divorcing this entire set of moochers).    All of the family lived in New York, but all moved to Florida.   

Plaintiff witness (husband) is on disability, stepdaughter barely ever worked (she did collections for American Express, and later worked at Macy's, but didn't work after moving to Florida).   

Plaintiff father/husband got a settlement, of $20k, and gave that to the defendant to start her online business.    Business supports husband, stepmother, plaintiff's daughter, and her two children.    Plaintiff, and her father got a loan when they moved to Florida, as co-signers.   Loan paid for the move, furniture, and supplies for the business.   

Since 2012-2016, defendant's business supported everyone (a cast of thousands, just like in the old movies).      Defendant is from Canada, and received a green card.   (If defendant was smart, she would move back to Canada, and get away from the entire plaintiff family).     Plaintiff daughter said in her statement that the $20k was a loan, but it was a settlement for the father's car wreck (settlement was in 2012).   

Defendant actually started her business in 2008 in Canada, and just continued it in the U.S.      By 2014 and 2015, defendant was supporting husband, stepdaughter, her two kids, and ran her business.       Then stepdaughter moved out, and actually had a job for a year, and then moved back home.   

Stepmother/defendant has already paid back $11,000 of the $20,000.    Plaintiff daughter never paid rent, and was supported by defendant except one year.    Stepmother/defendant felt threatened by plaintiff daughter (I wouldn't want to cross the plaintiff daughter either).  In November, defendant's son came to visit, and stepfather, and son argued.   Stepfather/plaintiff witness says son objected to how his mother was being treated.   Stepfather was arrested, and held in jail for seven days, and was finally released.     

Plaintiff/daughter says she didn't file a protective order, but defendant/stepmother did while plaintiff/stepfather was in jail.   Defendant called police when stepfather/husband pushed her.     JJ thinks defendant over reacted.     (I don't agree with JJ.  If someone puts their hand on me, especially with a pending divorce action, then I would file charges against the soon to be ex-husband, and get a restraining order against the entire bunch). 

The plaintiff and her father want the remaining $9,000 of the loan, after defendant supported all of their useless butts for years on end.    Judging from the nasty looks, and stank attitude of the stepdaughter/plaintiff, I would have filed for protection too.  Since house is in defendant's name, then JJ says to file for eviction for stepdaughter, her kids.   I hope defendant divorced the husband too.    Plaintiff father, and defendant aren't divorced yet, so the $20k loan is marital debt.     

I do not like JJ’s dismissive attitude about assault by estranged husband, and his vicious freeloading daughter.

Home down payment came from the business for $60,000 in 2015, however, that means defendant paid the down payment, all utilities were in her name, and no one else ever paid rent (in the daughter's case) or part of the mortgage.   The entire useless lot of Franklins, excluding the defendant, are living in a house paid for by defendant.    Plaintiff claims that telling her to pay her own utilities on a house that she squats in is stalking (No, it isn't).    JJ advises defendant that the debt is mutual, and dismissed. 

Stepdaughter claims defendant was sending mean messages to herself on stepdaughter’s facebook. Total garbage. 

Defendant wrote to plaintiff Natasha, and said she's cutting the utilities, and Natasha says that's harassment.  I hope Natasha took her father with her, if she ever moved out.   SInce the father has a low income, and plaintiff daughter doesn't work, then I guess the always generous Officer Byrd must be paying for where ever Natasha was talking about moving to.  

JJ says loan was martial debt, and husband claims he lives in another state.  However, stepdaughter, and her two kids, ex-husband, all live in a home totally paid for by defendant, and deed is only in her name. JJ says utilities (power, internet/cable, water, etc.) will be cut off when defendant gets back to Florida.

(My guess is once the plaintiff husband co-mingled the funds, that they became marital property, and hopefully a divorce judge would say the $11k defendant paid off was more than sufficient.  However, the plaintiff daughter claiming it was a bank loan was garbage.     I hope defendant got the plaintiffs bounced out of the house she paid for, or at least forced a sale.  However, plaintiffs might have established tenancy under Florida law, so might still be there). 

Case is tossed.

Second (2017)-

Childcare Payback! – Plaintiff Julie Webb suing defendants Christina and Joshua VanWinkle for child care fees, later fees and overtime for unpaid child care costs for their two children, $1350.  Defendant claims plaintiff let them have four weeks free.   Plaintiff denies anyone paid the $125 a week, defendant claims she paid plaintiff each week in cash.    Defendant lies and says plaintiff gifted her with four weeks free because an older child showed defendant’s children porn.    

Plaintiff says the defendants paid late every time.   The text from defendant says they found friends and relative to watch their kids for a month, and then were paying more at another daycare after that. 

$470 to plaintiff.

Expensive Phone - Throwaway Boyfriend?! -Plaintiff Elsy Macay suing ex-boyfriend/defendant Adam Peters for a loan to buy an expensive cell phone.    Defendant claims phone was $739, plaintiff says it was $839.   Phone plan was in plaintiff’s name.    Defendant claims he was being harassed by plaintiff, because she was demanding her money for the phone.  

$739 to plaintiff.

Telephone Pole Crash! -Plaintiff Nueza Barros suing defendants/ex-roommates Deon Harris and his girlfriend Tania Santiago for crashing her car, for an insurance deductible, and property damages.   The pictures of damages to the utility pole are epic.

Two defendants were living in plaintiff’s apartment, because she felt sorry for them. Defendant had no driver’s license, but says his girlfriend had to get to work, and so she drove the car to work, and he only drove home.

Defendant roommate claims he had an accident driving plaintiff’s car, because his girlfriend had to get to work, and he was tired.   Defendant says plaintiff was supposed to drive the girlfriend to work, and plaintiff didn’t drive woman to work, so he had to drive the car.  Then in the hall-terview defendant Deon says he was going to hang out with his buddies, after dropping girlfriend off at work. 

Plaintiff is being charged for a Verizon pole, $4261.

[Hot Bench - General Discussion]

New "The Tenant Commandments" 2022

Eckridge /landlord says defendant trashed his place, ants and roaches throughout the apartment, pest control told plaintiff there was food strewn around the apartment.  He kept the $1950 security, part for the last month's rent she didn't pay.   Defendant was on some kind of assistance from some charity or program.   She lived there for two years, rent was often late.    Lease also said no pets, and landlord found out she had pets.     Tenant moved out in November, paid no rent for November.   The agency paid her security, $1950, monthly rent was $1750.   Defendant paid 30% at after the first two months, first two months were paid by the organization.   SInce when does someone move out late, and get pro rated rent?  

Defendant says 'this wasn't my first rodeo'.    Landlord had pest control monthly, and he would text to say when the pest control people would visit.   The pest control people told the landlord about the filthy apartment with food everywhere.  The photos on move out, from defendant, show cabinets were broken,    Landlord says he doesn't have move-in photos, but defendant signed a statement saying the place was acceptable on move in.   Defendant had a dog, prohibited by lease.   Defendant says she only moved the dog in one day before the landlord told her dog had to move.  

Defendant claims dog is an emotional support dog, which is not guaranteed to be allowed except in federal housing.   She didn't have a letter from a doctor or anyone else saying she needed an ESA dog.    Corriero goes off on landlord, because lease says No Pets, but doesn't say "No Emotional Support Animals".   Actually Corriero needs to catch up with the law, if the tenant has a verifiable letter from a mental health professional, and it's verified they have a need, then in subsiduzed housing the landlord has to allow the animal, without size, breed, or other restrictions.   I don't know what state this happened in, but in my state landlords don't have to accept pets, except actual service animals. 

Defendant dumped dog at shelter, but eventually took dog back from shelter.  Why do I suspect unneutered or unspayed Pit Bull? 

Plaintiff says he wasn't discriminating against defendant's assisted rent status, because both buildings he's managed (he's been an apartment manager for 20 years), have a lot of tenants with various types of assistance.    Acker gets mad at landlord because he doesn't have a separate carpet cleaning receipt.  Defendant dumped a big pile of trash on the sidewalk.    Landlord had to pay cash to someone to remove her trash, because he would get fined if it blocked the sidewalk,   

Plaintiff/landlord keeps the rent money, but prorated. No proof of trash hauling, or damage proof, plaintiff keeps the $1950 security deposit.   Though Corriero would have given every penny to defendant. 

Rerun, "Race Boat Rip Off"  2022.

Plaintiff dropped boat engine off to be repaired by defendant (Begley vs. Villegas).  Defendant claims plaintiff didn't pay, and plaintiff claims there were used parts put in by defendant. PLaintiff is a part time boat racer, but is a yacht manager.    Defendant has been in the racing engine repair business for 45 years.   There is no written contract, but verbal agreement was for $2,000 for labor, plus parts, and had to be finished by March, and was done in February.   Defendant needed money up front for parts, and machine work.  Defendant says plaintiff didn't pay him anything until defendant threatened to lien sale the engine.    

Sounds like total lack of communication from plaintiff.    Who has enough room to keep all used parts, the way Judge Acker seems to think you should? 

Plaintiff has no proof that defendant used substandard parts,   However, defendant bought parts without a contract with plaintiff.  

Defendant spent $7,000 for parts and machine shop work. Plaintiff finally paid him $6597.

What a loose way to run a business by defendant.   Plaintiff case dismissed.   I wonder if plaintiff is still able to get work done on his boat without a contract?

#1 $1.4 Victorian duplex( actually 2 flat) with HOA $250 a month, in Haight Ashbury, 3 bed 1 bath, 2 units in the building.   there is a driveway and 1 car garage, but it's actually a tandem, shared space, but which unit gets to use it? Lovely vintage, main bedroom is on the front by the sidewalk and it looks like a small living room, only tub is clawfoot, living/dining is small. there's a nice kitchen with attached laundry, Third tiny bedroom has a small porch, but the tiny back yard is a shared space. (I would never buy a house with shared parking/tandem). 

#2 single family, Oakland, 3 bed 2 bath, just under $1 million, lovely hardwood floors.  There is a second bath with shower, Living/dining is nice, back yard had a great patio/fire pit, grass for the dog, not shared yard space.   2 car garage., extra parking pad, ranch. 

#3 San Francisco, $1.high rise condo, HOA $1441 a month (that's not a typo),   2 bed 2 bath, 1400 sq ft, 1 valet parking space with unit, pool/fitness center and other amenities, There are six other units for sale in the same building, so realtor says they might be able to get a deal,  Hardwood floors, living and dining are open, kitchen is nice, but small.    big pantry. main bedroom is bigger than house #1, nice closet built-ins. main bath is beautiful with tub and glassed in shower, 2nd bedroom is either guest room, or office.   guest bath is tub/shower combo, and very nice.   no projects, totally turn key.   The same realtor who said there are six units for sale in the same building so they might get a deal, now says they have to move fast.

They buy # 1, for $1,825!   Yes, they paid $425k over asking. He says maybe they can change the tandem garage to a double garage shared, not happening.   

 I would have bought #2, but never would have bought #1.

I must have seen it, though I can’t recall it now.  Maybe, I’ll catch it again sometime.  The welfare of children is a biggie for me.  I’m not amused by parents who fail to prepare their child for life.  Robbing them of self accomplishment and independence is so cruel.  This seems especially an issue with children with special needs.  The parent’s desire to be needed, worshipped, and in control is more important to them than their child’s welfare and happiness.  

I think there were two follow ups to Sean's original episode.     At the end, after his mother died, the father tried to help Sean, but Sean's only goal was to lose enough to get in a care home, and have 24/7 caretakers.   He died of infection I think.

First (2014)-

When German Shepherds Attack! -Plaintiff /German Shepherd buyer Cheryl King is suing dog breeder/defendant David Billings for return of money paid for a German Shepherd dog, because it was aggressive.    Plaintiff is claiming breeder gave her the dog for a four day trial, and would give her a refund of her $3500, plus his transportation.   Dog stayed with plaintiff for four days, she paid defendant $3500, but no travel.   Plaintiff wants refund of the $3500, plus her transportation.   Billings will swap dogs, but not give a refund.

Plaintiff’s 19 year-old daughter, and 14-year-old son live with her.   Defendant drove from Cullman, AL to Ashburn, VA (where plaintiff lives, it’s in Northern Virginia) to drop the dog off.   Plaintiff wanted dog to run with her daughter while training, and be a companion, but not be a protection animal.    Contract/Bill of Sale agrees that no warranty or guarantees exist, and no refunds.  The only exception is if the dog has xrays and has hip dysplasia.   Plaintiff claims the Bill of Sale/contract was modified by oral statements from defendant to refund the dog price.      

Plaintiff doesn’t want another dog from defendant. Defendant has texts and voice mail, stating no refunds.   Plaintiff shows photos of what dog allegedly did to her daughter.    JJ points out plaintiff still owes $950 for transporting the dog to Virginia, and dog training for four days.

Why do I bet that the daughter went for a run, and yanked the dog along, and dog got sick of getting yanked along.   I bet mother and daughter supposedly getting bitten didn’t indicate the dog was bad, but the plaintiff and daughter were incompetent owners.

There are no guarantees except the hip dysplasia exception.    Plaintiff wants transportation fees for sending the dogs back to Alabama.   I’m so glad the dog isn’t still with plaintiff.   

Plaintiff case dismissed, and Defendant gets $950 for transporting the dog.   I hope the dog had a soft landing, and is in a happy home.

TV Remote Control -Plaintiff Rita Dugan defendant/ex-boyfriend and is suing for the return of an engagement ring, a necklace, and assaulting her daughter.  Kristen Pingree, is the daughter, and claims when she visited her mother, that defendant assaulted her, and he was subsequently arrested.    Plaintiff daughter said she didn’t toss anything at defendant, but her mother says daughter tossed remote at defendant, and hit him, during the argument.

Defendant says remote hit him on the leg, and he claims daughter was out of control, and the defendant himself against her.   Defendant claims daughter yanked stuff off of the wall, and was throwing it around.   Plaintiff didn’t bring photo of daughter’s imaginary injuries, and no medical records, either.    Defendant is counter claiming for property.     Plaintiff tossed ring and necklace at defendant, and told him to keep that piece of junk. 

After arrest, defendant came back with a police officer to get his property.   He had 15 minutes to pack.

Plaintiff claims defendant returned the necklace to K-Mart.    Necklace was about $175, so plaintiff gets that repaid.  Defendant claims plaintiff kept his computer, gym equipment.   

Plaintiff gets $175 for the necklace that was a gift.   Defendant case dismissed.

Second (2014)-

Daughter-In-Law Dilemma -Plaintiff/grandmother Ernalee Grady suing defendant /Daughter-in-Law (DIL)Jennifer MIller wants money for a car.    Plaintiff wants money for the car, but it was purchased, when DIL and son Casey Miller, were married and together.   Loan for car was in plaintiff’s name.   Defendants have two children.    Plaintiff didn’t repossess the car when the payments were behind by defendant DIL, and she didn’t start this law suit for a year after the payments stopped.  

Plaintiff and DIL both signed the contract.   However, since defendants were married, the car is marital debt, so son owes half of the loan amount.     First car in family is in defendant Jennifer’s name, it was her grandfather’s, and is Jennifer’s.    The car in the loan was a second car for the family.

Plaintiff claims Jennifer’s didn’t have a driver’s license, and son Casey’s license was suspended.   Plaintiff paid the car off to avoid lapsed payments on her credit history.  

After plaintiff tried to force the repayment, by going to defendants’ house, plaintiff claims they stopped her visitation with the children.   Payment history shows defendants made credit payments.

Defendant is suing for emotional distress, from mother coming over and causing an ugly scene in front of defendants’ children.  Defendant says plaintiff and her other two adult children forced their way into the home, and threatened and assaulted her. 

JJ tells plaintiff half of the car loan is her son’s responsibility, so plaintiff should sue her son. 

Plaintiff case dismissed.

Worst Job Interview Ever -Plaintiff Joshua Avery suing defendant  Kimberly Fair for hitting his car in the parking lot.   Plantiff interviewed defendant for a customer service job.      Defendant went for a job interview with plaintiff, and after leaving hit plaintiff’s parked car, got out of her car, looked at his car damage, and then she climbed back into her car, and fled like a criminal.  Plaintiff didn’t see the initial contact, but saw everything else he testified to.       Plaintiff’s car had just been washed by the mobile car detailer.   Detailer came and told plaintiff about witnessing the car accident.  (This happened in Simi Valley, CA).  Defendant claimed she would pay the plaintiff’s insurance deductible off.

Kimberly said she didn’t have insurance, so she plaintiff to let her drive home so police won’t charge her with driving without insurance, and impound her car.    Plaintiff drove home, and called her son.

$1,000 to plaintiff.

Mermaid Mural and Assault at the Yogurt Shop-Plaintiff Ginger Hawver suing yogurt shop owners, defendants Michael and Deborah Jones, because they painted over her butt ugly mural, and breeched her contract (she wants $5,000).    Plaintiff wants the usual, $5,000 for the blow she's been dealt.    Plaintiff wants the unpaid balance for the mural (she claims it took 200 hours), harassment, and an assault.    Plaintiff is a substitute teacher, and does art on the side.    Plaintiff was going to get $325 for the mural, plus the supplies included.   Plaintiff was paid $150 up front for supplies, so only $200 is remaining.   

 The alleged assault was after five months of work on this masterpiece, plaintiff was fired, and claims male defendant pushed her out the door.   No medical records are submitted, no police report, no physical injuries are proved.  Sketches are submitted, and photos of the five month point are submitted.  Only part of the 35' long mural is submitted.    

Defendant claims the mermaids on the mural are by another artist.   Only some of the kids on the beach scene are done by the plaintiff, but others were not her work.   The sailboat, and crude dolphins (they look awful) are plaintiff's work, and it looks like a little kid did it.    Defendants pay $200, because they owe that.   The fact there is no written contract, and no finish date, and defendants brought in real artists to do some of the work, because they wanted to get the mural finished.   The defendants hated the mural, and painted over it.    Plaintiff still claims it was 200 hours of work.   I can't imagine going to a yogurt shop, and smelling paint for five months. 

Plaintiff claims the defendants only painted over the mural because she filed a lien against them. Plaintiff claims the defendant husband punched her.   

Note to plaintiff, tears in the hall-terview work better if you actually have tears coming out. 

Defendants submit the 911 tape on the last day plaintiff worked, to get their key to the shop back.

$200 to plaintiff, I hope defendants have a restraining order to keep plaintiff away. (My suggestion is that the defendants should have bought a wall mural for the yogurt shop.  Even I could install that in an hour, they're peel and stick, and easy to put up, or remove.      They aren't expensive, and would be up in one day, not five months, and would look better than the plaintiff's work).

Stylist Wars-Plaintiff Adrian Muskelly /salon owner (My Blessings Salon) issuing former chair and station renter for booth rent, and lock changing fees.    Defendant Dominique Williams, claims plaintiff breached the lease.  Plaintiff is leasing the shop from someone else, and has four operators, including herself, doing hair there.     There is a written lease for six months, and a cancellation period of two weeks from either party.   Defendant claims the contract requires the plaintiff advertise the shop, but it doesn't.   Defendant claims it was a verbal agreement, but there is a written contract, no written amendment was executed, so verbal is out. 

Defendant paid two weeks rent for February, and owes five months rent to plaintiff.     Defendant says she had no clients, so decided not to pay plaintiff, for months.    What was stopping defendant from doing her own online advertising?   Or some other way to promote her services?   I don't understand why she had no clients, because usually stylists that are good get regular clients that come back over and over.  

I am livid!   When JJ stops trying to explain the back rent to defendant, defendant makes a smart remark about JJ being useless.   Defendant is shaking her head like a bobble head doll. I loathe bobble head dolls, and the defendant.  

Plaintiff is suing another former stylist too, and that person also left owing rent, and is defendant's witness. 

Key fee is $25, Total to plaintiff is $2,425.  So, leaving court defendant is reminded by Officer Byrd to leave her papers behind, and toss her papers on the table from the gate, what a b-word.

[Halloween Baking Championship - General Discussion]

They're rerunning season 7 from 2021, Camp Devil's Food Lake on Food Network, this is episode 2, where Renee and Jocelyn (spelling?)the bakers from past seasons rejoin the contest. 

I found the croque in boot finished products to be ugly, and a waste of time to make, and obviously just to promote the cartoon movie.    Some weren't too bad, but they were all unappetizing.   I wonder how the judges managed to bring themselves to eat them.   The one that one of the women made with chocolate looked like it was covered in mud. 

[Hot Bench - General Discussion]

 Today's rerun is over Paisley the French Bulldog, sold for $3700, $300 down, two more $100 payments, and not a single penny after that.   Then the plaintiff made up a lot of stories about being in an accident, losing her spleen, and it was all a lie.    I'm guessing plaintiff will get the $3200, and defendant will keep the dog. 

 The way defendant keeps demanding the AKC papers, I'm guess she's going to be another shift breeder.   You don't get AKC paperwork until the dog is paid for, and $1,000 extra for AKC paperwork.  She could get 'not for breeding' AKC paperwork, but she doesn't want that. 

My guess is the second this woman gets AKC paperwork, she'll breed that poor dog every heat.   She's just in it for the money.   I suspect if dog doesn't produce multi-puppy litters or can't get pregnant that doggie will be gone. 

Now, defendant claims she is getting a job, and will have income.    I feel sorry for the dog, I bet the plaintiff will get the money, and then defendant will bother him for the AKC breeding papers, which are $1,000 more. 

Plaintiff gets $3100, but will not give the AKC papers.    I worry about the future of the dog. Sorry, but defendant keeps whining about plaintiff cussing at her, she wasn't paying, and she kept lying to him, I would have cussed her out too.  

You know poor Paisley is having as many puppies as is possilbe, and probably will be dumped the second she can't have more pups.   It's all about the money.
