Someone who doesn't insure her house, taking the chance of losing everything she owns should a fire occur isn't likely to have car insurance. But no problem. Should disaster occur, there's always "GoFundMe."

I actually don't.  My car insurance company, who I've been with forever, doesn't insure mobile homes that are older than 5 years.  They found me an insurer, and they're great, but I lost my multi-policy discount because of that.  :(

I do, however, know who they are.

Marauding chihuahuas attack!!! 77yo little old lady out walking with little grandbaby trips and falls when pack of yappers attack her ankles. Can't help but laugh, but the truth is a when a 70 plus years old person falls that can put them on an express elevator to the undertaker. Luckily, in this case it's just bruises and broken glasses instead of broken hip.

I gotta say. . . I'm 57 and overweight with bad knees. I tripped in my cobblestone driveway about six months ago and fell on my good knee (which is now my bad knee). I'm still nursing that knee, taking medication, using ointment and a heating pad every night.

She had a hundred excuses - most of which I didn't believe. I guess she thought if she talked fast enough that she would befuddle the judge (isn't there a phrase, bedazzle them with brilliance or baffle them with bull sh$t?).

I believe the woman about the insurance because she said the mortgage is paid from her escrow We have to provide proof of insurance payment every year to our mortgage company and I am pretty sure all  companies require the same.  Before  our refinance, the previous mortgage company paid the insurance company through the escrow, so I can believe that she is just lets the bank take care of it, doesn't worry about it and has no clue who the insurance company is.  

The mortgage broker may have set that all up when she got the mortgage so she signed a few things and forgot about it.  Didn't even consider using the same insurance co as her car.

And many people do not know that you can use your insurance to pay for things like dog bites.  They think it is only for structural damage of the home. 

Of course, none of this explains why she didn't pay the woman.

OMG if ever someone was begging for a legal smackdown, it's the smirking, "yep"ing, non-$1K-deposit-paying woman on the first rerun. Oddly enough she's on the plaintiff side of the court as a witness - they're suing for a $1K deposit that their own witness says they never got. I seriously have no clue. Witness smarts back to JJ, she smarts back to Byrd when he's throwing her out, and for a moment it looked like he'd have to physically remove her. And then she tries to go out the wrong door.

I just came here for Jennifer Lemme. I've never hit anyone but I wanted to punch her in the face, or was hoping Byrd could it for me. Sec8, grinning leech, along with her boyfriend. She thought she was adorable, with her coy bullshit and "trick" answers

This, after we had the first leech, Jesus "Jerrie" - dirty old man, backyard breeder and parasite, who can't  work at any legitimate job, but CAN do heavy labour landscaping under the table while collecting disability benefits.

Usually don't watch JJ but Hubby DVRs it and watches it at night. The woman being sued by her landlord for 2 months rent (she was suing him also) drove me crazy with the white bra strap hanging out of the red top. By the end of the case the entire strap was showing.

[NYCFree]

I don't know who insures our house.  My husband arranged for the original policy, back when we bought the place in the fall of 2014.  Since then, the payments for that, and our taxes, are paid via our mortgage payment.  I know it's either Farmers, or State Farm, but I can't remember which one.

I did actually read the policy when we first got it.  I remember being flabbergasted at the minutia of details of the items for which we are covered.  My favorite was learning we are covered for damage to our shrubbery in case of civil unrest.  My least favorite is that we are not covered in case of nuclear incident.

But, "they" didn't tell him he needed collision coverage on a 14K car he's still paying for. The didn't "aware him" that if the car was totalled, that 14K was down the drain. How was he supposed to know? It's not his fault!

Ah, yes, the yep-ing Ms. Lemme.  Gad.  Definitely a two-shoe irritant! Wavin' those papers around! No, you don't get money back if you never paid money. But the lease says I did!  But when every real live person says you didn't, it's a little harder to get the cash. Yep. Yep. Yep. Another one who obviously knows how to work the system. Kinda wish Byrd had let her try and power her way through the other "doors." Good luck, new landlords! Me thinks you all deserve each other.

People like her, and the liver-transplant-disability-doing heavy yard construction neighbor, make me sad for the people who really, truly need the assistance. It's so much harder for them to get the help they need. Well, if wishes were fishes...

[Jamoche]

When Lemme was doing that very deliberate "no, I didn't pay $1K in cash" and "no, I didn't write a $1k check" I did wish JJ had let her go on a bit to see just what she was trying to dodge by being picky about the phrasing. It kind of reminded me of Sovereign Citizen nutjobs, with their cargo-cult belief in legal terms they don't understand.

[califred]

Ok either the fence is all on your property or it's not and you ask him to help you pay.  If he paid 700 for the fence who the hell cares what color he painted the side you can't see.

 

I put my fence up (without asking my neighbors to pay for it) if my neighbors feel like painting it polka dot on their side I don't care.

[BubblingKettle]

Getting to see Mr. Wright's entire wedding video was truly a treat. I love wedding/party cases. That was a well-done affair (I'm overlooking the fact that some of the bridesmaids desperately needed Spanx)....the table centerpieces, a big dance floor, fabulous cake, professional bar, etc. But Judge Judy was right -- at the very low price of $250, he got what he paid for.

 

In the fence fight case -- Bob Ketcherside's "You're not insulting me; you're insulting my mother." Oh barf. I don't blame the defendant for throwing a can of Pepsi (or a Pepsi can?) at him. Mr. Techener was so sweet in the hallterview. Bless his heart.

Yeah. It was like, an hour at least? I'm sick of all these people who want something for nothing. Boring.

What really bugged me was seeing someone Mr. Duke's age refusing to take responsibility for what he does (can't drive in a parking lot without smashing  another car) and thinks saying "I didn't do anything. I wasn't there!" is enough when there was an eye witness who saw just what he did, which included hitting the parked car so hard his license plate was ripped off. He thought it was funny too. Asshole.

[AngelaHunter]

Old man fight: Good lord. Had the plaintiff, a furious, very short, chipmunk cheeked troll, led such a charmed life that he can get this worked up over the colour of a freakin' fence? A fence that he doesn't even see from his house (which I'm sure is run with military discipline)? Oh, but people walking by can see it, and probably keel over in shock and horror. I just... omg. Patricia Bean has nothing on this angry little man.

[augmentedfourth]

What the fuck.

 

No, really, what the fuck. Did we really just sit through someone's entire wedding video? The producers HAVE to be trolling us at this point.

 

Honestly, I actually didn't think it was all that terrible, considering they only paid $250 for it. (*hides in the corner*) Then again, my degree is in music, not art, so what do I know. My wedding video is long as hell. I'm glad we have all the important moments, but having a highlight reel of sorts may not be the worst idea in the world.

 

I'm not sure I totally agreed with JJ on the fence case. It's always been my understanding (though I could be wrong) that whoever puts up the fence, as long as it's completely on their property, the neighbors can't do anything with it. (Unless tree branches are coming over or something, but then that's a tree issue, not a fence issue.) However, the whole land purchase thing with the extra money for the fence that may or may not have been paid made it more convoluted, so I guess if the defendant paid for part of the fence, it was reasonable for him to stain his section however he wanted? Who knows.

I didn't either. What did they want, Spielberg for 250$? No one wants to sit around and watch wedding videos anyway after the first viewing.

Quote

Apparently he didn't pay for it, but plaintiff didn't bother adding that to his complaint, so tuff. The thing is, if different coloured wood stain can make the stubby martinet so furious he goes barging over to the neighbour's house to chew him out, there's always going to be something he'll bitch about. Some people just love living that way.

[Brattinella]

"Stubby martinet".  LOL!  But I didn't get to see either of those episodes.

[DoctorK]

I agree with you. If the fence was totally on the plaintiff's property and the defendant did not pay for part of the fence (which was unclear from what we heard), then the plaintiff was correct no matter how much of a jerk he was. Where I live, code requires a 6 inch setback from the property line, so if both sides put up a fence there is a 1 foot "no man's land" between the fences. If I put up a fence completely on my own property and the neighbor did not pay a portion of the cost (unclear in this case), then the neighbor has no right to do anything to my fence without my permission. If they don't like the way MY fence looks from their side, they need to put up their own fence on their property (which is what just about everybody in my neighborhood does). JJ decided before the case was heard that she really disliked the plaintiff (admittedly a jerk) and she badgered him and faulted him for things that he was perfectly in the right on. From before the case started she had already decided that this was a case of obnoxious guy beating up on a disabled person. Startng to agreee with someone upthread who said that JJ needs to retire to enjoy her millions and grandchildren.

Yea, the channel guide told us we were going to get new episodes, and instead we saw the rerun of some girl suing her bf(?) because of damage to hotel room. Girl was full of it. First told story of how long they were dating, later changed it to "he's not really my bf." Good grief, girl, don't talk to someone from JJ's generation about spending an intimate night getaway at some hotel, insisting there was no way you could have gone through dude's phone because you were showering together at the time, and then turn around and say you were never boy friend-girl friend because you never "put that label on it."

The wedding video felt like something one would see at an arts school graduation, when the students show off their final projects.   Videographer clearly felt she was being edgy and hip. I don't think the intended audience for the video was the grooms' grandmas.

[BubblingKettle]

My memory for the details of the fence case could be wrong, but I think the defendant had given the plaintiff $700 to cover some of the cost of the fence. I think it was mentioned during the discussion of the land deal -- he paid $3,000 for the land, and then he gave him $700 for the fence. 

[DoctorK]

Quote

he gave him $700 for the fence.

That was what really muddied the waters in this case. Did the defendant pay for part of the fence? Sounded like that was the agreement but later the plaintiff claimed that the defendant never paid the $700. Assuming for the moment that he did pay $700, does that make the fence joint property, and then can the minority owner unilaterally make significant changes to the joint property? Also, since the fence was completely on the plaintiff's property would part ownership give the defendant easement rights to enter the plaintiff's property to modify the fence? JJ was so antagonistic towards the plaintiff from the very beginning that this critical issue was never addressed. JJ was hung up on the idea that since the plaintiff could not see what the defendant did to the fence from his home, then it was none of his business. Does that mean that my neighbor can paint a large political sign that is visible from the street that I find offensive on his side of my fence and it is none of my business?

I think it would be a different issue if someone put up, say, a large poster of Adolf Hitler or put a pornographic painting on the fence. This is a lighter shade of stain and it's ridiculous and nutty for anyone to go into such a red-faced rage over it. JMO.

I spent a lot of money to fence in my yard and chose a black chain link because my "prop-pitty" is heavily wooded which makes the fence nearly invisible. My neighbour decided to put up chain link and chose white which sticks out like a sore thumb. It's attached to my fence at two corners. I don't like it and I'm sure I may have frowned, but didn't go charging over to his house, yelling and pointing my finger at him. Most people have more important things to worry about.

[Guest]

I just saw a few seconds of the new episode because someone was at my front door.

What I did notice was JJ immediately jumping on the plaintiff about the fence color, a couple of "who cares" and a "let's move on" once or twice.

Now, to be fair I did not get the particulars of the case and the plaintiff (according to most of you) was a loser but it did cross my mind on the way to the door that JJ might not be so swift to dismiss a fence of a different color in her neighborhood. 

Am I remembering correctly that she did something (was it not sell her neighbor a right of way access? Or perhaps not selling him a piece of land she didn't use but owned?) to really tick off her neighbor.  She's quick to dismiss items she deems not worthy of her 36 years post grad knowledge (I'm exaggerating but you know what I mean) or her dentist dads' tuition cash but to some people those items can't be replaced at the drop of a hat.

She's not a people-person is she?

[BellaLugosi]

Did any of you catch the rerun today? A 17 year old rented a vacation home with his mom's stolen credit card. Doesn't Judy usually say that a minor can't enter into a contract? I think she was mad because the kid lied to her. I don't know what the kid was saying at the end.

"She should be more careful about who she rents her house to." (True, you are a putz.)

"This could happen any day any time." (So someone broke in & had a party while you weren't at the house you rented, it wasn't that you went there with your idiot friends and made a mess.)

"A lot of people are dishonest in this country" (Yeah, like you, thief.)

Then he says he learned not to do this again. Except he didn't, because he's still lying. And mom is defending him & not teaching him right from wrong. UGH.

In the fence fight case -- Bob Ketcherside's "You're not insulting me; you're insulting my mother." Oh barf. I don't blame the defendant for throwing a can of Pepsi (or a Pepsi can?) at him. Mr. Techener was so sweet in the hallterview. Bless his heart.

I was distracted as usual. . . and totally mesmerized by the defendant's abundantly poufy hairdo. At first I thought it was a toupee but then it looked fairly well attached as if it actually grew out of his bless-his-heart-head. I initially tried to be understanding of the plaintiff's bitchiness over the painting of the fence but then when he was whining about being hit by a Pepsi can thrown by a man who apparently couldn't even stand or walk down the aisle for the trial - why, that's what's wrong with 'Murica - Mister Ex-Marine Ketcherside! Semper Fi you sorry grunt!!

I cannot tell you how many prospective brides that I have warned against cheap photography. I'm one of those weirdo mothers of the bride who still looks back at her children's wedding pictures and thankfully they had an excellent photographer (and paid well for it). Brides (or I guess grooms in this case) have no problem paying out the nose for outfits they wear only once for maybe eight hours but photography lasts forever. 

[Milz]

About the wedding video.......Initially, I thought the song was "Love Roller Coaster" by the Ohio Players, and after listening to the actual song on the vid, "Love Roller Coaster " would have been the better choice. I guess the producers needed filler and decided to show the entire vid. In doing so, it  scared our cat, made the kids suddenly want to go help Grandma in the other room, and prompt Mr. Milz to exclaim "What the Hell's this crap?"

First of all, hey fuckerbitches! Long time no speak. I haven't been watching JJ, but I'll be marathoning the new eps sitting on my dvr today and tomorrow. 

The fence case is why I logged on today. What the ever loving fuck is wrong with people? Neighbors do stuff that may be annoying, but it astounds me how much they overreact to little things. I don't have a problem with the plaintiff suing, but harassing the neighbor over something so trivial is beyond my comprehension.

Are any of you ID Channel watchers? There's a show called Fear Thy Neighbor which depicts neighbor confrontations that turned deadly. It always starts over something stupid that most of us wouldn't even bat an eye at. Some people just need to live Ted Kazinsky style in a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

ETA: I didn't think wedding video was that bad. Also, based on what I've heard from friends, most people never watch them again. Like the neighbor thing, it's a case of people without real problems who need to create a federal case when something doesn't go the at they expected it to.
