    “Delusions of Grandma”

    New, Season 10, Episode  (Tewolde, Corriero, Juarez)

    (Rory Williams Jr vs. Jennifer Rivers)

    From the show site:  A young man's grandmother took $4,000 dollars from his duffle bag because she believed he'd stolen it from her daughter. But he says it was HIS money, which he'd planned to spend on his shoe business. Can her actions be classified as "theft?" Or was she within her rights to intervene?

    Plaintiff / grandson suing defendant/ grandmother for stealing $4,000 out of his duffel bag, and refuses to return it.     Litigants were on a road trip to Vegas together, when they argued, and the next morning the money was gone.  Defendant says she took the money, because she didn't think the money belonged to grandson, and only took it for safekeeping   Grandson had $4,800 in total.   

    Grandmother says when they returned to Victorville, her daughter Nisha, called and claimed she had over $4,000 missing, and so she thinks grandson stole the money.  

    As always, Corriero is making excuses for the grandmother stealing the money from grandson.   Grandson didn't know the grandmother gave the money to the daughter.   Grandmother isn't talking to any of her kids now (she had seven children, one was murdered)

    Plaintiff's witness Runisha, is his mother (oldest daughter of defendant), and she tells some story about the grandmother causing problems, and grandmother calls her a liar.   Witness says her mother's been in prison several times, the police are looking for her now, and the daughter she gave the money to has a restraining order against the defendant.    Grandmother claims she only took $3,000 to give the daughter, so what happened to the other $1,000?   

    Corriero asks grandson if grandmother stole the money.   Yes, grandmother is a thief. Corriero says if grandmother only gave it to the other daughter, that it's not theft.      

    Grandmother keeps saying she'll pay the money back, but we all show the show pays the award.  Corriero argues that the grandmother was trying to resolve a dispute, so it wasn't theft.   Corriero says he won't call the grandmother a thief.  He says grandmother was acting as the other daughter's agent.  He's taken outrageous positions before but this is beyond ridiculous. 

    Plaintiff receives $4,000. (Corriero dissents). 

     

    “Breaking Up Was the Breast Decision”

    Rerun, Season 10, Episode  (Tewolde, Corriero, Juarez)

    p. 43, 30 October 2023

    I actually saw this. I'm still trying to figure out Corriero's reasoning. I watched it a second time to see if I had missed something. Nope, still doesn't make sense.

    WTF does "finna" mean?

    I believe it's a slurring of "fixing to". Planning to, going to, getting ready to, etc. I'm fixin' to finally fold my laundry and put it away. I'm going to spend the night because I've had to much to drink, and I'm not fixin to get a DUI(said by none of our litigants ever)

    Who wants to see the very first episode? What a difference. I doubt they had a single Springer-type show.

     

     

     

    Wow! Randy Douthit still executive producer. Doug Llewelyn producer. Different announcer, and a young Byrd.

     (instead we got a question about picking up new skills during the pandemic as well as who picks out Judge John's clothes...pointless, pointless questions...).

    I wouldn't mind seeing Judge John in jeans and a t-shirt. (but the questions are pretty pointless )

    The new gimmick they are trying out this week does not help. The "human interest" segment where JM and JJ are asked questions by viewers about their personal lives, including how they met, etc., are not what I watch these shows for. They hit a new low today with the silly question about whether they ask people to take off their shoes when entering their home.

    I actually don't mind Harvey answering questions about points of law, or about episodes of the show (how many, weirdest), what Ed Koch was like, etc. Maybe the judges once a week.

    Did anyone else notice JM's robe in "After the Verdict" on that last case?  She had her legs crossed, and it looked like she might have been in her swimsuit under the robe . . . quite a bit of thigh showing.  Then, all of a sudden, the robe was pulled way down in the next shot.  

    It just cracked me up.  

    I noticed this. There have been a few other times when I looked at her and wondered if she was wearing anything under the robe.

    This is from Andy at TheJeopardyFan.com about today's episode:

    The opening of this episode contained a very heartfelt tribute from Mike Richards to Alex. The end credits of this episode contained a title card of “Dedicated to Alex Trebek / Forever in our Hearts / Always our Inspiration”.

    I just saw the beginning and I'm crying again

    Sorry - not recognizing the name.  Was he involved in a case on People's Court?  TIA.

    This was the mother who was suing her son's fiancee for a Mustang and a Harley. The son had been killed at a party. The case was on about a week ago,

    This mother suing a day care provider for $10K was ridiculous.  My gut is telling me that this frivolous case may have been brought by a person with some "issues", going by her somewhat robotic way of talking and what looked like shaved off eyebrows.

    I was wondering the same thing. She seemed to be rambling alot

    5 p.m. episodes, both new-

    First-

    Divorcees Still Supporting Adult Son-Plaintiff suing ex-husband for not helping loser adult son out of mess, they've been divorced for over 20 years.   At first defendant agreed to help son, but then there was a falling out with the son, and it fell apart.   Agreement was to help married adult son, who is not working, and has a pregnant wife, and plaintiff talked to ex-husband about helping with son's rent ($1700 a month, defendant's portion was supposed to be $850).  Ex-wife paid the $1700, and is mad ex-husband didn't pay his half.  JJ says if man told ex-wife he wasn't contributing after fight with son, and she transferred the money after that, then man doesn't have to pay.

    The ex-wife claims she never got the text. JJ kept yelling "you knew! You knew! he wasn't paying" Calls for the operation of his mind Your Honor.

    JJ asks plaintiff, whose motorcyle was stolen by Shatima's snowflake, how many times he's been arrested. She was truly expecting him to say "None" but his smile and casual, "Oh, A few times," (maybe he never kept count) prompted a shocked and disgusted,  "OH MY GAWD!" from her. If I had ever been arrested, even once, I guarantee I wouldn't smile as I related that fact, especially on national TeeVee. OH MY GAWD indeed.

     

    This interchange had me rolling. JJ expects him to say "no", but he says "a few times". His nonchalant attitude, and her response were just hysterical
