The People's Court - General Discussion

[rcc]

The two plaintiffs were hard to watch. I wish JM had not given them a dime. Also she was in court, not the beach. I like watching the dynamic between JM and JJ. He seems to be such a nice man who obviously loves his wife.

Agree with both points. I guess JM has given up. I remember her telling some bimbo, "I'm not interested in your BREASTS, so cover up!"

Plaintiffs suing over car damage to wife's car from defendant's parking lot . . . 

Defendant did research online, and plaintiffs have filed seven other lawsuits in the past two years, including one against Elon Musk for something about a Tesla.  They sued Chase Bank for a similar parking lot incident.   They sued their marriage counselor for giving bad advise.    They sued a friend (actually former friend I'm betting) over something on a boat.   

$1281 to plaintiffs, what a joke.   I wouldn't have given the plaintiffs a penny. 

I heard the plaintiff husband say (in response to the defendant's bringing up all the lawsuits), "I'm a Leo."

I don't know anything about the zodiac, so I googled it.  Among the tidbits about Leos:

• "Strengths: Creative, passionate, generous, warm-hearted, cheerful, humorous (No evidence of that in this Leo.)
• Weaknesses: Arrogant, stubborn, self-centered, lazy, inflexible.  (BINGO!!!!)
• Leo likes: . . . fun with friends (Whom he will sue at the drop of a hat.)
• Leo dislikes: Being ignored, facing difficult reality, not being treated like a king or queen.:  (BINGO!!!!)

I've never heard anyone's astrological sign used as a basis for a lawsuit before.

He wanted to make sure JM knew he's a Man to be Reckoned With!

I saw something a couple weeks ago and immediately thought of all our litigants who get into serious feuds with neighbours over tree branches, leaf-raking, parking spots, etc. and escalate it to threats, serious harrassment and physical stuff over time.

All these headlines were on one page and I wondered if any of them had appeared on this show. Yes, they kill each other over tree trimming and snow shoveled in the wrong direction:

Today's afternoon episode is the man who was bitten on the ankle, by defendant's chihuahua, causing an infection in plaintiff.  Plaintiff is suing for medical bills.    Defendant keeps emphasizing the dog is eight pounds, and blames the plaintiff for power walking on a public sidewalk, and blames the plaintiff for the attack, and claims plaintiff tangled in the flexi leash, and defendant says dog felt threatened.     The only interesting thing is that the defendant's cousin who is from Norway, and was visiting, and walking the dog when the attack happened, calls into court to testify.     If the defendant would have acted like a responsible dog owner, this would have been settled before court.     Sorry, Judge, the size of the bite, and what the dog connects with make a difference.    Plaintiff claims medical bills are $2700.   Judge Marilyn and defendant need to stop giggling about a Chihuahua bite being nothing,   

Plaintiff gets medical bills, but not pain and suffering.    

I'm skipping the next case.  Desperate plaintiff loaned money to defendant, and claims he wasn't really in a relationship with her, or another woman, but their relationship wasn't booty calls either.    $3,000 in dispute, and of course, Mr. Booty Call says it was a gift (including for weed, and other stuff).

I'm usually okay with repeats, but not this one, where a SSM (of course) pays 3K in one year to get laid by Def Casanova the Hunk and seems to think that's funny or cute. P didn't care how many other females D was boinking as long as he could still get it up for her. Very romantic. Use the money for her kid? Don't think so. Momma's got needs. Ugh.

My gut tells me these two came up with this case as a way to supplement their income.  "If we go on People's Court, they'll pay us!!!"

Today's afternoon show is a rerun, Music Mayhem.    A mother of the bride hired the DJ business to DJ the wedding reception for her daughter's wedding in Miami, for 600 people. (Apparently, plaintiff invited everyone who ever invited her to anything, and I wonder if the bridal couple really wanted 600 people there?).     Plaintiff paid in full in advance (bet there was a full payment discount).  There is an Act of God (Force Majeure) clause, but Judge Marilyn still has to drag out the story of her two daughter's cancelled graduation parties, and I think she talked about it with Judge John after the case.        And plaintiff gets her money back., $5150.    

Then the next case is the couple who wanted their septic tank approved for an addition, needed a survey of the septic field, and agreed on $300.   But to use the fiber optic camera (it's rented for each use), was $500 extra, and the husband agreed to it.    The wife says the plaintiff/septic tank expert is a crook, and forced them to agree to the extra money.     Then the defendants hired someone cheaper, and I'm wondering what he did to confirm the septic tank was big enough, and in good shape to handle the extra load?    The defendants also claims plaintiff isn't licensed to survey septic tanks, but he says he is.  I'm hoping the Lake County Health Department saw this case, and reviewed the situation for permits, and assessment of the septic field.    Licensing for contractors is through the state everywhere I've lived, so why would the county matter?     Defendant wife claims plaintiff forced them to let him use the camera on their septic field.   What a joke.  In my opinion, another litigant who wants to get free services for nothing.    Plaintiff says his report was that septic field wouldn't handle the load, but he won't give it to defendants, because they never paid him.   Plaintiff told defendant husband that he couldn't lie and say the septic system was OK.   That was when defendant hired the other contractor who did lie about the suitability of the septic system for the addition.   A written contract would have made this much easier to decide. 

$500 to plaintiff.

I'm sure the litigants are given a list of what to do and what not to do, for backgrounds for the remote calls.

I suspect that I have been missing this since September, but just in the last week or so, I realized that some of the litigants look like they're in hotel rooms. Has anyone else noticed this? I can't figure out why they would be. Some of the litigants have been in weird rooms with people lounging on the couch behind them so it's not like they need privacy. Does anyone have any insight into this? I don't know why I care, I just do.

I think you're right. Some of them do appear to be in hotel/motel rooms. Didn't we see a few of them who appear to be sitting on beds? I think, though, most are in their own homes where we see some weird stuff, like the old hoarder guy in his claustrophobic nest, the woman with the two -headed skeleton in the background and recent Zen guy whose walls were painted in a violent shiny blue, somewhere between Midnight and Electric. It made me anxious.

 You could be in a room with plain white walls and someone would be like "damn, hasn't this bitch heard of Benjamin Moore?  Maybe she should be suing him for a can of paint".   One thing I've learned is no matter what it is, someone somewhere will complain about it.

My female birth vessel had NO sense of style and her method of choosing slipcovers was grabbing whichever color was on the top of the stack of the size she wanted.  True story:  She was buying slipcovers for a chair and a couch in the same room.  They were available in three colors, all with the same floral pattern.  She picked up a gold-based chair cover and a red-based couch cover, both of which were on the top of their stack.  At the age of 11, I looked at them and said, "Wouldn't it look better if we got the same color for both?"  She got an "I never thought of that" look on her face and then - fortunately - switched out one so they would both match.

Several years later, after I'd married and had a home of my own, she came over for dinner one night, looked at me (with dismay) and said, "My God . . . does EVERYTHING have to match?"  I responded, "Yep."

I finally got to see the falling-down refrigerator case. The defs - he a moon-faced, smirking, goggle-eyed idiot and his ladylove, a hard-rode, squinting, gape-jawed, eye-rolling bitch - were quite a treat. What's plaintiff's beef? Defs are too cheap to hire a moving company and he had no one to help him carry the fridge up to their new nest, so he just left it there "for half an hour". It was an act of God that it fell and smashed the bumper on P's nearly-new car. The video of the thing falling over was quite edifying. Hard-rode bitch turns away and eye-rolls at JM's question of what if a person or kid had been walking by and the fridge had fallen on them? A spanking ensues which means nothing to these cretins. It was satisfying that not only the Defs no doubt had the fridge broken by the fall, but also had to pay the 1500$ to fix P's car.

I do like eclectic. I have a 1924 dresser in my bedroom that has all new, modern furniture, a 1927 radio in my living room and I did paint every room in my house a different colour - "Kerry Terrier Blue", anyone? I loved it. However, one memory stays with me. My parents either bought or had sofas recovered once. One was bright red and the other, bright blue. The upholstery was this stiff, poodle hair-type fabric and just thinking of it now makes me shiver. They were placed on top of lino that had vile, huge, cabbage roses and all were in a freezing cold living room. I don't remember much else, except the melamine coffee tables. I see all these young people wanting "Mid-century Modern" design now and think they might not like it so much if they had lived with it.

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.

 Since she does this from her living room, is Judge John there when she's in court?   Yesterday's rerun was the behind the scenes bikini "documentary" (that was later marketed to Pornhub) and when a clip was entered into evidence she looks over her shoulder and says "what are you looking at?".

I'm getting different reruns. I had  the repugnant, finger-giving, Old Man Battle of Weinstein vs Weinberg and the insufferable woman who rented rooms in her house to the toothless old lady then told her she couldn't move in after all when said old lady was outside with the movers. I would have preferred the "Pornhut" one.

I had the same rerun yesterday in the afternoon slot (I get a morning rerun, and then in the afternoon session it's either new, or a recent rerun) that AH did with the landlady, and the two men who have hated each other for years.

Today's rerun is the jerk in the Hawaiian shirt that claims he lived in a house for 30 years, but his mother and aunt lived there for that time, and moved in not too long ago.    The defendant trespassed on the neighbor's property, and dug a 26 ft trench, and claims to have permission from the landlord of plaintiff's house.  However, the digging happened in July, and the permission letter is dated September.     After defendant loses, he whines that he's lived with his mother since he got out of federal prison for white collar crime, after many years living overseas, in Thailand and somewhere else.   

Then the couple that claimed they were having financial issues, were living in extended stay, and then moved into friends' spare bedroom.  However, while they were stiffing the plaintiffs on rent, the husband bought a brand new Range Rover, bought a condo, added the Range Rover to his fleet of vehicles, and filed this case as an indigent.

The worse litigants that I've ever seen on this show. Both cases had very selfish con artists.

[AngelaHunter]

I never saw the 2nd and 3rd cases we got today. I guess they were butted into by some urgent news.

Goofy mom and her goofy boy suing the tow company for smashing the radiator in sonny's car after he got a flat tire: I was kind of thinking that whatever son did or crashed into that caused the flat tire may have also caused the damage, but I guess not. Mom's constant, "I was thinking" and "I thought maybe" and her hearsay was annoying.

Then we got Levin yelling, "Groaning over a loan!" WTF? Widow is suing her late hubby's completely toothless friend for the 160$ balance of a 200$ loan she made to him. No one wanted to say how deceased hubby died, so I'm thinking he committed suicide right after toothless says he gave him two , 50$ bills as another partial payment to P, leaving a 60$ balance. Toothless says hubby, Lee, told him that P took the envelope with the money and threw it across the room. 160$ for P.

The Hall Clown informs us that the toothless guy is a "louse" who won't pay her back. "Louse" is one of Levin's favorite words, even though I doubt anyone has used it since the 1940s, maybe in a gangster movie, and it sounded much better coming from James Cagney than from some silly, high-pitched, gossip-mongering dirtbag and his puppet. I guess I should be grateful we don't have to look at the No-Neck Hall Clown anymore, but we shouldn't have to listen to him either.

That's a tough one. There are so many contenders for that title.

My DVR now refuses to record this show, so I just saw part of the second case of the big kerfuffle over some old beater cars being swapped, traded, or sold or something. Def, who appeared to be hopped up on something, rips out of his earpiece and storms off before the end of the case, maybe to get another snort, drink, or fix of something. All parties had such horrifically bad grammar ("He didn't say nothing about no title.") I'm puzzled they can function in the world at any kind of job at all, but maybe everyone in their circles speaks this way. If these are the shows that got pre-empted for whatever reason the first time around I'm glad to see I missed nothing at all.

Only part worth watching was Judge John talking about his old, rusted, beater Mustang. He might want to consider doing part-time at a comedy club. He's very funny!

Judge John is such a good addition to this show. I like his take on the litigants and his stories. Even when MM interrupts and tells her version. Lol

I've been saying that for some time. At least maybe from 2 years ago and not two months? Having said that, I did rewatch Mr. Pepper or Poppins or whatever his name was who had an addiction to some kind of sandwich and who really wanted pictures of some Danish as well. He had the most weird, flat affect. Does anyone really think it's a good idea to argue with the cops and refuse to show an ID when requested to do so? I got stopped by the cops once in my car. I had a broken headlight and didn't know it. I said, "Yes, sir" and "No, sir" and "Thank you. I will get it fixed tomorrow". The cops were very  nice to me and and I went on my way. I'm pretty sure they might not have been so polite had I challenged them to prove I didn't have to show my license, etc.

We got the repeat of the idiotic "Car girl" today and her junkyard Fiero, who seemed even more stupid and obnoxious this time around.

Today we had the case with the contractor doing some work and buying materials for the job. He gave the plaintiff a good price because her husband didn't want to pay much and she would "get in trouble." Then their Church would work for free. So she sues for the $850 she gave the defendent.

I wonder what "getting in trouble" means for a grown, married woman? Would the husband ground her? Take away her computer? Lock her in her room? Beat her? This is in the same category as adults saying, "I wasn't allowed to (have friends/spend money/take long showers/get a job/see my kid", etc.

She reminded me of another money-grubber who paid to have a new gas water heater(?) installed then later found the utililty company would have replaced it for free. She then wanted the person she paid to install it give all her money back because his work suddenly was rendered worthless.

I never saw the first case today, which was from Jan 8. I guess there was some mass murder or other heinous crime that pre-empted it.

Sister is suing brother for acting like a violent lunatic because she parked in a space he thought was his because Daddy told him it was. A picture, or a video, truly is worth 1,000 words. Def brother is a 33 year old man who says he "never got along" with his 20-year-old sister. When did this start - when she was 10 and he was 23? When she was 5 and he was 18? She doesn't take out the garbage! He seems to be some kind of sociopathic maniac, who is all demure sweetness and light here, orating about how his honours his daddy - the same daddy he called at 2:00a.m. to screech profanities because his very own parking spot, in front of the building in which his daddy lets him live, was taken by his baby sister. The video was horrific, in which he acts like a possessed monster, squealing his tires,  banging on his sister's car, snatching her phone and smashing it and screaming like a banshee. I guess his "anger issues" only come up when confronting young girls. He's totally lowkey and reasonable in this case and his demeanor is kind of scary, in that he really sees nothing wrong with his actions. If I were on video acting like that I would die of the shame.

JM is outraged, but wastes her breath asking him about apologies to his sister. He says he offered to pay for her smashed phone and Daddy mediated this, but thought the 800$ price tag was too much, so offered only 600$ with Daddy ponying up the rest for his 33-year-old, out-of-control, tantrum-throwing, baby man-son.  JM was so right, in that Daddy needs to let this grown man find his own place to live,  handle his own business and to stop covering up for him. I can only hope that one day Def tries this rage thing with someone who can defend himself and that person beats him to a pulp. All this over a parking spot! Well, when you live with Mommy and Daddy you never do grow up.

All new cases!

Missed the beginning of the first one, but jailbird is suing his former girlfriend for 1200$ she borrowed from him while he was in prison. She used money for his bills and car or whatever and spent some on herself I guess. Def said he told her, in regard to paying this back, "I ain't trippin'" which seems to have a number of meanings and in this case Def implied it meant, "You needn't pay the money back. Keep it in consideration for services rendered,"  or something like that. All that was just the usual, BUT plaintiff - who just did 2 years in prison - has THIRTEEN children. I'm sure he diligently supports them all. In the hall he informed Doug that when someone has money, the way he does, he truly ain't trippin'.

The we had some yahoos fighting over a 47-year-old pickup truck and a 20-year-old Ford Focus. P protested how he always watches this show, but I guess he absorbed nothing, since he gave shifty def the ancient Ford Focus in satisfaction of work that was never done on the antedeluvian truck that looks as though a hand grenade was detonated in the cab. He just felt so bad for poor def. who had his car taken by his baby mama, I think, and couldn't get his kids around. That this ignorant, dim-witted con artist Def has kids shouldn't surprise me, but somehow it did. Def sold the old Focus for 1400$, no - 1100$ - he says, even though the book value is under 500$, but he did work to it, to the tune of 80$ or maybe even 100$. JM wants to know why P is suing for over 1300$ for the thing, and it seems he just opened the KBB, closed his eyes and put a finger down on a price of some car and decided that's what he's owed. P gets 500$ for the heap plus 100$ for some welding helmet. I lost brain cells watching this.

In the hall, the grammatically-challenged Def tells Doug: "This case was completely botched and I'm gonna be seeing into it." I have no idea what that means.

Finally, we get entitled millennnial girl being sued by her landlord, Mr. Stalin (I hope his first name isn't Joseph) because she quit paying rent. According to her, Trump said no one has to pay rent during the pandemic. Woo hoo! JM abuses her of that notion. Def takes off to Florida for months. P and his wife have COVID, but even after he tested negative, D doesn't come back yet still leaves all her crap there. "He could have, like, taken all my stuff out and re-rented the room." She's not a lawyer obviously and JM informs her that is illegal. She gets her Daddy to discuss things with the landlord's wife, and Daddy promises he's trying to get his girl a job so she can pay what she owes, which is about 4 month's rent. She doesn't really give a shit about all this and figures if she's bunking with her boyfriend, she shouldn't have to pay a dime. It was all too boring and Def owes P 2,050$. Pay up.

I thought that said wedding helmet.  I totally want one of those if I get married.

I have known 3 different people over the years who when I asked how many brothers and sisters they had, said they didn't know.  Although one knew it was at least 9.  It's crazy.

Missed today's episode. Did Mr. Trippin' get any money. To me he should be grateful she helped him. Do they have children together?

I had a friend growing up who had 4 sisters and 4 brothers. They were poor (like the rest of us) but they all knew who their parents were, nobody went to jail and they all grew up in the same house. I guess that sounds arachaic these days.

Yes, he got his 1200$ dollars back. He said he never told her she could keep the money, because he refuses to take better care of a woman than he takes of his children. She has a new boyfriend, and JM seemed to feel it was underhanded that Def never told Romeo that she had someone new, just stopped answering the phone when he called. Yes, because a drug-dealing felon with 13 kids who he admits got nothing from him while he was in the slammer deserves so much more consideration. 

I don't think these two popped out any blessed events.

I don't think Ms Millennial ever did understand the concept of "if I don't pay this month, I'll need to pay later, along with the amount I'll owe for each month's rent that I'm still living there (whether I'm out of town or not)."  She thought Covid meant, "You poor baby.  You don't have to pay your rent unless you want to, and this mean old landlord can't make you do it.  Sucks to be him."

Probably not. How many cases have we seen where landlord attempted an eviction and the courts blocked it for a certain amount of time, tenant finally gets out, landlord sues for the rent and they say they don't have to pay because the courts said they could stay. Yeah, you can stay.  That just means they're not letting the "mean old landlord" kick you out in the cold or whatever.  It doesn't mean you get to live there for free.

Just a clarification before I add my two cents.  I am not on Team SSMON

However, it appears that “Mr. Trippin’” does, what is commonly known in certain circles as a “hit and run”.  I don’t think it’s necessary to go into details but suffice it to say, he hits it and then runs without the obligatory 9 month cooling down period.  

Mr. Trippin’ with his impressive brood of thirteen (I wonder if any one of them can sing?) quite possibly could have one, two, even more within a few months of each other since he does not have that constraint.  Frankly, I doubt Mr. Trippin’ has any constraints given the amount of children he admits to.  

So, the playing field isn’t level in that regard.  And like all sports used to be divided into male/female teams if we were to use the same criteria I suppose Mr. Trippin’ wins the Johnny Appleseed award for the men’s category and Miss SSMON is a strong contender for the women’s category.  Then again, if either of them identify as anything else, all prizes/awards will be based on the new criteria.

And for my final statement, let it be known that “I Ain’t Trippin’”

Yeah, in a contest to produce the most progeny, a woman is at a distinct disadvantage to men.  Assuming you're doing it the old-fashioned way, but probably even if you're not.

You can start a new trend! Be an "Influencer" on Twaddle, or whatever.

I kind of wish this case had been on JJ, because she would have grilled him and I was really curious to hear Mr. Trippin' the Stud explain just how he supports the abundant fruit of his loins. Looks like the drug-dealing operation might be shut down, well - while he's on parole at least.

So today's new case "Taking Advantage of a Buyer" is so funny.    The woman bought a 2003 Jeep Liberty, and says a 17 year-old car had issues.    Plaintiff claims the salesman gave her a verbal 30 day warranty, no proof.   The defendant/de says a buyer can get a third party warranty, but the dealer doesn't offer anything.      The dealer owner (I guess owner) came out and towed the car in for her, and then says that the reason everything was failing in the car is that she drove for many miles (he says about 30) after the serpentine belt came off, that explains a lot about what was wrong with the car.     Plaintiff gets nothing.    Plaintiff's fake crying would be so much more effective if she actually produced tears. 

My cable went out in mid-show, right after this case.  I'm sure with the morning recent reruns, this one will be on in a week or two, and I can catch the cases I missed. 

(the cable, internet and phone was off for about an hour, then came back for about 20 minutes, and then went off for another 45 minutes.     If you noticed someone screaming filthy words, and the words Spectrum cable in it, then that was me.)
