Homeless, Evicted, and Robbed-(I remember this one, it's wild)

North America must be the only place on earth where someone is without a home, has to live in a park and a tent in someone's yard, yet can have two TVs, cell phone/service during all this, and judging by her voice, plenty of cigarettes. Baffling.

I got such a kick out of the landlord harassment case in Calabasas.    I loved it when plaintiff said that his girlfriend of that minute was harassed by the landlord, and then plaintiff confided the relationship will never go anywhere permanent.   Bet the girlfriend was already history, about the time she saw him in daylight.

How on God's green earth did that woman get hired to work at VS?

I thought at first that she might have been the accountant or office manager, although I am not sure there would be enough work in just one store to provide full employment for someone. Also, the aunt said that her niece had to buy VS clothes because employees are required to wear the company,s garments while working. I do not know it that is true (I can't imagine the staff running around in skimpy underwear and négligés would be practical) or part of the lies that the defendant was feeding her. Like others, I think even the VS job may have been a big untruth.

She joins a long line of litigants who make questionable clothing choices when they appear on these shows. I am sure that many of us, including myself, have some physical idiosyncrasies (big or small), but the normal reaction is to choose clothes or postures that mitigate these. She, like many others, made the complete opposite choice by wearing a top that was at least 2 sizes too small, highlighting every unpredictable bump. This to appear on national TV!

I can just about understand people displaying their tats, because it cost them money (not very much in many cases considering how cheap they look) and they suffered real physical pain to get them, so they want to make bloody well sure the world sees them, no matter how ugly we think they are. Clothes are another matter, but unfortunate choices still abound amongst those litigants.

We often see the VS staff arriving for work on our morning walk around the inside of the mall.  Most of them are wearing "Pink" brand (sold at VS) jogging pants, tops, etc.  And they all seem to be a size 2.

I think the niece just wanted to shop at VS, so she conned her aunt into getting the credit card.

But why? Does she think they have stuff in XXXL? A homeless, broke, misshapen galoot who isn't allowed to have her poor kids visit and she's just itching for some lingerie? For what? To try and lure another inseminator? Trying to figure out what goes on in the heads of so many litigants makes me dizzy.

Definitely. He's 69, and the botox, the Kenny Rogers Asian look of a bad eye job/brow lift and skin pulled too tight - all signs of crappy plastic surgery.

So they have more workplace-acceptable brand; the name explains the big swaths of pink on their storefront in Montréal. I am not part of their customer base nor am I a consumer of their line of socially acceptable soft-core porn for straight men.

That niece was definitely more than a size 2 (even I know enough about the strange sizing system for women's clothing to realise that...).

I feel your pain. I too have an overly-vivid imagination and visualization. There are times when it's a really good thing, but other times - especially when listening to hideous sloths and trolls on this show talking about their intimate relations/venereal diseases, etc the images I get are something no person should have to endure.

3 p.m. reruns-

Dice-Throwing Disaster-Plaintiff suing for $2,000 defendant and her six year old, because baby sitter says child threw dice once, and ruined her TV.    One baby sitter was watching 10 kids.  As usual, plaintiff doesn't have a receipt, because the TV was a gift, and she gets $350.00.       

Burning Down the Trailer-Plaintiff suing defendants for the costs to replace her 5th wheel trailer.  Trailer was destroyed after defendant's motor home caught on fire, and it spread to plaintiff's trailer, at a fenced, open air storage facility at Lake Havasu.   Trailer was purchased for $2300 ten years ago, and plaintiff wants $4,000 for it now.    Plaintiff never registered the trailer in her name.   Plaintiff also wants money for what was inside the trailer, and a 5th wheel stabilizer, leveling scissor jack, and something else, but has no receipts.   Defendant's motor home was registered, but not insured, and plaintiff claims the registration on RV said it was non-operational.   Plaintiff registered the trailer after the fire.  $1622 to plaintiff.  Plaintiff is totally ticked at JJ.      Defendant settled with other vehicle owners damaged in the fire, but they could prove they were the legal owner of their vehicles. 

Hotel Room Destruction-Plaintiff suing ex-boyfriend of the last three years for destruction of a motel room, after plaintiff went through his phone and saw messages from another woman.   Plaintiff paid for motel room, and she's being charged for damages.   Plaintiff says man did damage, and defendant scum sucking pig man says woman damaged motel.  Plaintiff declined to go to Buffalo Wild Wings, watch the game, she declined.    Then, plaintiff says man wouldn't leave her with his stuff at motel.   

Defendant claims he went to take shower, and then he walked back in the room to see enraged plaintiff, who read his phone messages.    Defendant says he wasn't boyfriend to plaintiff, but she says they were 'talking'.     The police report is only an incident report.   From the date of the fight, the litigants have not had any contact.    Plaintiff seems like a bunny boiler to me.   I need brain bleach now!   Plaintiff claims they just 'talked', weren't dating, and were showering together, and she never looked at the phone.  Nothing for the plaintiff. 

Rent-A-Church-Plaintiff former tenant suing defendant /landlord for return of rent and security deposit, when plaintiff rented a church basement for a day care center for twelve clients.     Litigants signed a lease, for a 12 child day care, and later at new church that was under construction, to hold up to 80 children.    Defendant never received zoning for the new church, and old church was never zoned for day care, so plaintiff couldn't use rented day care space.     Defendant knew the zoning wasn't right for the original day care, and it was never approved, but claims it's in process of approval.   (Is that Lindsey Lohan sitting behind the plaintiff?).     Plaintiff gets $5,000 (she actually paid $6,000).   Eight months later the zoning still hasn't been approved.

Rerun of Birthday Party loan case, I missed these hallterview jewels on first watch: "unloyal" and "dishonoring".  Adjectives P uses to describe D.

Sometimes, I wonder if English really is my first language.

P in new painting case was a rather unlikeable old coot.  The overspray did look like crap though.  D says he wasn't given the chance to powerwash the paint off.

Oops, a quick Google look-see says that paint cannot really be removed from asphalt shingles.   Powerwashing will knock off the necessary little granules and solvents don't play well with the asphalt properties.

Replacement of shingles or spraying a dark paint on them were the only solutions I found.

[CrazyInAlabama]

5 p.m. episodes-

New-

Toxic Paint Job-Defendant painter claims he couldn't perform his job, because of the presence of dialysis patients in the building during certain hours (painting was limited to one afternoon, and Sunday).    Defendant claims his contract exempts him from job completion.      Plaintiff claims defendant damaged his building with over-spray.   California based plaintiff also claims painter never told him about the issues of doing the painting during rainy weather (near Augusta, GA).   Painter claims he was 85% done, but did it badly.  Plaintiff wants every penny back.   JJ tells plaintiff to get witnesses, and sue in Augusta, and case is dismissed in JJ's court. I can't stand the plaintiff.   

Man Fears for his Safety After BB Shootout-Plaintiff suing defendants for stealing two cell phones, and harassment.    Plaintiff claims defendants got her two cell phones, and sold them.    Defendant woman claims plaintiff's witness said he couldn't stay at plaintiff's house any longer, because another house resident ( other plaintiff's witness) shot him with a BB gun.   ( I'd like to watch the defendants dance while I peppered both of them with BB's.    Anger management is failing me again, isn't it?)

Defendants admit they sold the phones, and knew they belonged to the plaintiff   (This is so sad, plaintiff's witness Edward seems to have a lot of issues).     Plaintiff gets $1645 for the phones.  

Rerun-

50th Birthday Party Grand Entrance Upset-Plaintiff suing over a $9,000 birthday party that went wrong, when ex-girlfriend / defendant tried to stick him with the bills, and payment for her car that was impounded.      $1700 to get car out of impound for defendant, and still owes $687.82 on the bill.    Plaintiff says vendors at birthday party hadn't been paid, so he loaned her $2700 for the party.     $3387 to plaintiff.         

Shoddy Work or Slanderous Words-Plaintiff suing defendant former contractor for bad work on her garage. Garage cost $28000 (it was to add a two car garage).     I remember this case, woman is a pain of a client.      Another nightmare client, who didn't bring a real estimate for the drain remediation.     Cases dismissed.

Like that scene in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes, where Kathy Bates' character bashes her car into the one driven by the skinny rude 20-somethings, who were "younger and faster".  "Face it girls, I'm older and I have more insurance."

I feel bad for the 24-year-old in today's case of the stolen/sold phones.   She was way too young to be in that shape.  She's on her way to an episode of My 600 Pound Life. 

Also, her tattoo looked like the line from an EKG.  Is that something new the kids are doing?

Thanks for the bleach!

Good luck to the Toxic Paint Job plaintiff at suing the contractor in Augusta.     Since the man lives in California, that's going to cost more than it's worth in travel, hotel. lawyers, etc.   Plus, the painter has a home town advantage too.    I think it's another case of trying to get a job cheap, and hiring the wrong person.   Though I don't know how anyone else could have painted any faster with the wet weather, and the limited hours they could paint because of the dialysis clinic.

My husband and his whole work crew got all their cars washed and waxed and buffed when a contractor allowed over-spray to land on their vehicles.  It didn't matter if you were driving a rust-bucket or something brand new -- we all got wash and buff jobs.  Our 20-year-old beater never looked better.  

The contractor should have painted by hand, or limited the spray painting to quiet days.  Since the building was brick, he would have just been painting trim anyway, right? 

I thought I saw over-spray on the brick, but JJ claims there was none. 

[Guest]

Maybe this case was a rerun because I didn't see it listed in @CrazyInAlabama 's recaps, but yesterday I got a case of a woman with what appeared to be the skyline in the Frasier logo tattooed on her chest (for reference):

...and who also appeared to be 10 pounds away from being recruited by TLC to appear on My 600-lb Life suing what appeared to be the products of ten generations of inbreeding (including a fellow wearing mom jeans) over the illegal sale of her two cell phones. But we're not done yet! My 600-lb Frasier Tattoo brought along a witness who had not one but TWO wandering eyes who, and I don't think this will come as a surprise to anyone, had a fiancee. 

It was an otherwise dumb and boring cell-phone-drama case but honestly the circus came to town with this one and dropped off its contents in JJ's courtroom. 

[PennyPie18]

I wish JJ would show some smiles and happiness as she's coming into the courtroom. But, then, after seeing some of the cases, like the stolen cell phones, maybe she is cranky just reading the complaints??? I certainly understand why some of these people would try anybody's patience, so I get why she seems a bit pissed off after hearing the cases! Seeing reruns of her in her previous hair style, I can't figure out why she wants to look 10 years older in the new one????? And, I really wish she'd stop the fake laugh, it's getting old and tiresome. JMHO.

How could I resist this? Omg. We had a "Cirque du Freak" crowd and what they are really worried about are cell phones? Plaintiff is 24 (I had to rewind because I thought my CC was mistaken) looks 55 and won't see 40 if she doesn't do something about her caloric intake. Sad, it is. Very sad. Def. smirking wife had her "had came" grammar corrected and was baffled by that, repeating, "Had come" as though trying to learn words of some dead language and her husband, Mortimer Snerd, had to be told to stop shaking his stupid pinhead. Def. wife bawled and blubbered in the hall because the cell phone problem made her miscarry. Delicate, she is. Very tragic, but don't worry! "Idiocracy" is undeniable and I'm sure you'll soon be shitting them out like a pro. Byrd, get out your checkbook. She and Mortimer have the kind of stellar genes that really must be passed on.

Yes, but her name is "Montana". That should tell you all you need to know about the love of his life.

I'm not sure what the deal was with the painter who is so meticulous he sprayed the roof shingles. I couldn't understand most of his garbled testimony. 

Mother-in-law, Verta, who took 1500$ from the plaintiff to buy herself a car and then won't pay the money back? Her own son couldn't spare a dime for Mom but her ex-daughter-in-law should? "It was a gift," she says because a mother of FOUR just has all this superfluous money lying around to give away. She was on such hard times she couldn't pay the money back even at 10$/week, but she can afford to buy enough food to keep her in a state of morbid obesity. Pay back the damned money, you leech.

Another poster asked if the tattoo was an EKG thing. I lean towards that because I know a guy who had a tattoo of his daughter's name put in the middle of the heartbeat thingy on his arm. They give the paper printout of the readings during childbirth and he took it with him to have the tattoo. I have seen other people with it also, along with the footprints at birth. 

My SIL has my granddaughter's footprints tattooed on his arm. And another relative has her son's heartbeat on the inside of her upper arm. Both kids were premature (but are fine now). Of course, we wouldn't be debating this issue if she didn't insist on tattooing on her chest. Or if she wore a turtleneck.  Or if she wasn't a dingbat with too many phones and too little brain power.

The painter was sloppy and that trade is notorious for inconsistent work schedules, but I would have tossed P out on his ass early.   He straight up lied about the work restrictions!  If he didn't know at the beginning (which I doubt), he knew within an hour after the painter knew.

An office or building manager absolutely came out and talked about patients, fumes and dialysis.  The D 's wife was way too specific to be lying.  P never did fess up on that issue, so Judge Zillbreeze can't believe anything else you say, so "bye"!

[CrazyInAlabama]

3 p.m. reruns-

Husky Custody Battle-Plaintiff and her ex-boyfriend defendant got a Siberian Husky while "living together", (she was renting a room in his house) for two out of four years.    Plaintiff was paying rent to defendant, and she lived in the guest room, apparently not romantic.   Plaintiff has a new baby (not the defendant's baby, and baby daddy not in the picture), works giving swimming lessons, and part time at a market, and has a roommate.     Plaintiff took Chastity, the husky,  with her after she moved out, for a year, and returned dog to defendant, while woman was homeless.    Defendant has Chastity (the dog), and the dog's sire, and now two years later plaintiff wants 'her' dog back.   I totally agreed with JJ, defendant owns the dog, and plaintiff has no right having a dog in that apartment.     

Phone Stomping and Face Punching-Plaintiff suing ex-girlfriend/ defendant for her smashing two phones belonging to plaintiff.  Plaintiff says they had a fight, defendant smashed the phones, and they still both stayed living in the house together.   (If anyone wonders why JJ looks grumpy, play this case and you'll know why).   The defendant is so tacky).   Case dismissed.   

Fight of the Goonies' Fanatics-Plaintiff sister (lived in room, paid rent) suing defendant sister(homeowner) for plaintiff's property, and loss of her backpack, lost at a Goonies' festival.     When they had a dust up at the festival, dumped plaintiff's knapsack next to the car, and defendant left sister behind, .    By the time plaintiff got back home, her property was outside the house.     Plaintiff gets $320 in rent back, plus $150, equals $470. 

Teen Flies Off the Handle-Plaintiff suing defendant for ripping his car door handle off, and throwing it in his face.   I believe every word the plaintiff said.   Plaintiff gets $302.

Obviously, you are not as sensitive and emotionally fragile as this delicate heffalump. So, did you claim PTSD from the fall and start raking in disability payments?

Today's German Shepherd owner made me feel homicidal.  The combination of her easy gaslighting, faux-innocent batting of eyelashes, pearl clutching and reaching for smelling salts when things didn't go her way was infuriating.  This is someone with decades of experience in the art of deception and manipulation. JJ exposed her multiple times but it rolled off her back and she just kept going with her act. She was really good, even JJ couldn't trip her up.

She did the only thing left for her to do, which was to award the plaintiff 3K.

Defendant was biting her lips in frustration when JJ shouted that it wasn't about whether she'd lose, but how much money she'd lose... did she think she'd win this?

She reminded me of "Curl Dr" who parked in someone's driveway and invaded their house after her car was hemmed in.

5 p.m. episodes-

New-

Wailing from Disabled Ignites Dog to Attack-Plaintiff works with disabled patients, and was walking with a patient down the sidewalk.   Dog owner pushed yard gate clicker, gate opened, and the two dogs (one a German Shepherd, ), came onto public property, and attacked the plaintiff.   Defendant/dog owner claims patient made a wailing sound, and the dog attacked the plaintiff.    Plaintiff says her patient makes sounds, they passed the driveway, and were on the opposite side of the street, and the German Shepherd attacked the client, and the other dog attacked the plaintiff.    Plaintiff claims defendant came over told client to shut up, and that the bites weren't that bad.    There is no way I would have gone into the defendant's house.   

What kind of idiot thinks your dogs attacking two people is something to ignore?   Defendant ignored animal controls attempts to talk to her, claims the bite happened in her driveway, and the dogs are harmless.    JJ says she'll enjoy setting this judgment, and so will I.    The defendant should be ashamed of herself.  $3,000   to plaintiff. 

I Didn't Go to Law School for $38 in Dirt-(Yes, two exes are suing partially for $38 worth of potting soil).    Plaintiff suing defendant ex for $800 loan, storage fees, and $38 of potting soil.   Defendant is so full of it, he claims everything is a gift, or that plaintiff owed him money.   $800 to plaintiff.  

Rerun-

Windshield Smack Down-(This is a truly bizarre case)-Plaintiff is suing defendant for smacking her windshield with his hand.    This is the strange case of a bunch of various people driving around, and defendant claims plaintiff tried to run him over.   Defendant claims he can't remember much, but a bunch of various and assorted people were all just riding around in the plaintiff's car.     Defendant claims he got out of the car when plaintiff hit a car, and he went to a nearby park, and that's when the attempted run over, or the windshield damage happened.      Everyone in this case is out of control.   I wonder what the real story is?    Plaintiff gets $798.

Show Me the Proof-Plaintiff suing ex-landlord/defendant for moving expenses, and pet deposit.    Plaintiff had two big dogs, and moved out using the security deposit for last month's rent.   Defendant has no proof of damages, or trash in the house and yard.   Plaintiff gets pet deposit back, $650.

I call bull hockey on this.

I am always put off by litigants who suddenly turn blubbery in the hallterview and try to summon a Niagara of tears (generally unsuccessfully) as well as bring up major matters like that; we know she would have done during the hearing if it were true. It made me dislike her so much that if it turns out she was telling the truth about the miscarriage, I would say that was simply natural selection at work. I know, I know, I do not have a heart (except the one I keep in a jar on my desk).

Today's German Shepherd owner made me feel homicidal. 

She kept repeating that the plaintiff had said she was OK right after the attack, as if that was a definitive diagnosis that could not be refined upon closer examination by a health professional; not to mention the tendency of people after a traumatic event to downplay it as if to calm and reassure themselves. She stubbornly clung to that argument until the very last second of the hallterview. As you say, she comes across as a a practiced and habitual liar.

In the windshield case, I once again could not understant how tolerant JJ was of the plaintiff's' attitude: posing, pouting and trying to stare down the defendant. Perhaps JJ was mesmerized by ther attire, which looked as if she was going to a fancy dress party under the theme of "cheapest-looking cocktail waitress".

In the other repeat case, I wondered what is the most frequent practice: a pet deposit, which can be partially returned, or a pet fee which would be not refundable. Might the second option lock you into that amount even if the animal's damage exceed it? Because pets will inevitably leave their mark, even if only by "accident".

I caught the plaintiff saying the defendant wanted her to come into the defendants house.  I would have done the exact same thing as the plaintiff.   Lie and say I was okay and then go to see an actual medical professional.   I would not go into a stranger's house much less go onto the property where the dog that just bit me was roaming the grounds.

Right up there with Mrs. Bean in unforgettable cases.

ETA:  I'm old and a lot of stuff goes over my head, but did anyone else suspect that the cigar "wrappers" the plaintiff's friend was buying on their way to the park was for marijuana?

My thoughts exactly. In a case like this “I’m okay” means anything from “I’m not dying, hemorrhaging or dismembered and I can walk. I’m okay” to “Get the F out of my face and leave me alone. I’ll seek treatment elsewhere. I’m okay.”   People like this defendant who refuse to do the right thing and steadfastly stick to their bullshit in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary are some of the Earth’s most troublesome humans.

JJ even pointed out that the plaintiff had just been attacked by the defendant's dogs, so of course she wouldn't want to go in the house with her, or be anywhere else close to where the dogs were. Hell, I thought of that too.

I enjoyed the part where the plaintiff said in the hallterview that she wanted to tell every woman who lived in Clayton, North Carolina to stay away from that guy. He seemed like a nice enough guy - had on decent clothes, was well-groomed, etc....and then he opened his mouth. Yeesh.

[Florinaldo]

I also would have stayed away from the house where the dog that just bit me resides, so the "I'm OK" can be explained that way, as well as by the natural attempt to calm oneself and not get into shock or a panic.

I find very outdated the custom that women expect men to pay for everything – for example on dates, by constantly buying gifts and flowers or making various payments –  and that so many men accept that role as part of some alleged social compact. But then again, what do I know about navigating the heterosexual dating pool?

[NYGirl]

I have to say I am so angry that I cannot see straight about the German shepherd woman.  I am the mother of an intellectually disabled child and when the defendant said "an ungodly wailing" I knew exactly what she meant and I wished she was in front of me so I could punch her in that smug face.  I'm sure the person was scared as hell when those dogs came out and then she even got bit by the dog!!!!  What was she supposed to do?  I actually wanted to cry just feeling sorry for the plaintiff's client.

Honestly, that lying giant sack of shit really wanted to let the world know what a grifter he is, taking 800$ from his desperate girlfriend because his cell phone carrier was "overcharging" him? I guess he didn't consider that the bill adds up when you don't pay it. He vented! He vented a lot, apparently to everyone within the sound of his voice, except the phone company. He sold her his old desktop computer for 800$? It seems he wrote that on his answer while in some fugue state since he has no memory of doing so.  Quite a prize he is, threatening to have her arrested for asking to be repaid. Ugh.  He reminded me of Thurston Howell III from Gilligan's Island -  if Thurston were a morally bankrupt leech and dumb as a brick. He was a cop? Nice.

Was the def. mentally defective, or just infuriatingly stupid? Too bad Byrd couldn't have gone over and slapped that silly grin off her face. She looked and sounded like an utter fool.  If my dog ran out in the street and bit someone I certainly wouldn't react the way this dumbbitch did.

Neither of them seemed overly endowed in the brain dept, but plaintiff breaks her lease, moves out early and then expects the landlord to pay her moving expenses? How do people come up with this shit?

That's not what we call a "rant" around here!🙂 I don't even have a disabled child, I am non-violent and I wanted to whack her upside the head with a blunt instrument.

My neighbors have two large dogs. I don’t think they are guard dogs on the sense that they are trained to guard. They will bark loudly if some one walks past the house but it’s not that aggressive charging that many dogs do. If you ring the doorbell, )it’s at the gate), family or the housekeeper will let you in and with a simple command the dogs retreat and don’t bother you. Family will also escort you out. They do have 2 gates though The first gate opens and lets you drive in, there is a second gate in front of you thatbyhe dogs are behind. The first gate closes and then the second opens. The dogs effectively cannot get out past the first gate and onto the street. The family has a closed circuit camera and if need be they can verbally order the dogs to their fenced in kennel and remotely lock them in. Allowing guests to walk out safely or have deliveries made. No ones ever had a problem or been bitten. They do look scary especially at night. The owners are very nice and if people visiting are afraid or nervous, they just send the dogs to their kennel and keep them in there. They do have cameras posted so they can verify the where abouts of the dogs at all times.

"an ungodly wailing"

A while back I had an uncle who after his stroke had the inappropriate wailing problem. It was difficult to be around, but as an adult I understood the situation. I can understand that dogs (particularly watch dogs) would react to this. However I hated the defendant with her box of rocks level stupidity telling us about her gated driveway and how she wasn't responsible when she opened the gates and her watch dogs got out. Her whole "I asked them to come in my house" to get cleaned up for the wounds (that she maintained never happened) made me think of the movie "Misery"; no way in hell would I go into her gated house without an armed escort. A lot of the clueless pit bull owners have pissed me off but none more that this woman.

The part that amazed me on the dog attack is the plaintiff and her client/patient were across the street from the defendant's/ lunatic's house.     I wonder how many other attacks or complaints to animal control that woman has been allowed to ignore over the years.

Obviously, you are not as sensitive and emotionally fragile as this delicate heffalump. So, did you claim PTSD from the fall and start raking in disability payments?

Well, the screws holding the stair railing did come out of the holes, causing me to fall, but I did live in old military housing at the time.  They probably would have kicked my family out. Of course I am partially of German stock who are strong like bull and exceedingly intolerant of whiny bullshit artists. (although I did break my foot resulting in a comedy of errors where I tried to hobble into the emergency room using a broom as a crutch and resulting in six weeks in a cast which included the delivery of the baby). Perhaps I should have sued the broom manufacturer.

I cannot tell you the number of times I've said "I'm OK" when I'm trying to calm myself down. It's a coping mechanism. I'm guessing "I'm OK" might also have been for the benefit of her "wailing" client (getting in the very long line with yall to slap the defendant silly)
