It’s amazing how people interpret, in their head, what was said. With some digging the Judge discovered 1. Someone move in immediately (you had no lost of rent), 2. You didn’t document that they were late on rent in fact there is evidence to the contrary. 3. You lied about when you took a picture! But the defendant interpretation…“landlords always get screwed” . As if he was the victim.
People like to play victim... And somebody told the public: you're allowed to tell people: if you don't like something, show them and/or tell them in person, that they're wrong-- don't hold back! And this is now one of the problems in our country. The defendant got away with talking back to JM, only because he talked over her. I was hoping she'd stop and ask him, "wait, what did you just say?" He literally doesn't think he did anything to damage his case -- and he never will.
For the people saying that they shouldn't have sued for 160, 1. For you it may not be a lot of money, but for some it can make the difference between food or no food, electricity or other essentials. 2. Sometimes it is about the principle. Some people will walk all over you because they think they can UNTIL you show them they actually can't. Also going on TV, people might see the scummy landlord and refrain from renting from him, which is good.
When you take someone to court over small stuff it is always about some old unresolved grudges and not about the actual money. If someone is so desperate for that kinda money you can almost bet that have huge issues they have to deal with and worrying about getting by for a month is not even a concern.
@@user-qz4cn5nz6o He took him to small-claims court, which you and any other person can do for amounts up to 10,000, depending on the state. He did everything in the right way. Also, it's irrelevant if he has money problems or not, he was being taken advantage of and he used his legal right to sue. Plain and simple, it was his money, which he deserved back.
@@user-qz4cn5nz6o What if the landlord did that to all of his tenants? That adds up. He steals a bit here & there and feels smug because they don't sue him over small amounts. Then he lies about "damage". Maybe now he won't be so quick to lie and steal. And regardless of whether it's $16 or $160, it was money the defendant owed to the plaintiff and refused to give to him. The plaintiff has a backbone! Good for him!
The Defendant knew they were paid up. As soon as it was proven they paid, he immediately pivoted to "what about the damage?"... Plus, the picture of the damage was from 2 months AFTER they moved out? The Defendant lies without missing a beat, scary.
This is the one time I didn't care for Doug's conversation at the end. He was on the defendants side talking about if he had evidence NO his evidence made a liar out of him. Then to keep asking the plaintiffs was it worth the little bit of money 160. HECK YEAH. If it was 1.60 it was worth it. Its theirs 🙄🤨
Yup on the $160. For me that's about a month's groceries. Maybe to a lawyer it's small change, but to low income people it's a hardship to lose that kind of money
Dude was really pressed about being told he was wrong lol "I'm not wrong; what about [completely different thing]!" "Can't be nice". I guess mistakenly accusing them of being behind on rent and trying to pin damage on them that he can't substantiate is being "nice" 🤣
The defendant is wrong AF. Its clear the plaintiff has some difficulties and he tried to take advantage. Good thing him and his girlfriend is on top of his business 👏 👏 landlord greedy AF and rude with his lying ole sorry behind.
In the defendant's head, he can do no wrong. He was very smug. "I am not wrong", "She misunderstood", yet he wouldn't even give back the $10 overpayment of the cable bill. In his head, he is the victim. Just like after he was proven credibly incredible, he says "The Landlord always gets screwed". He's got a big victim complex
In Canada, (qt least Ontario) we dont have Security Deposits (in fact they are illegal). We pay First Month and Last Months Rent. On the last month of the lease (if you dont plan on staying after the lease end (In Ontario, Even if your lease ends, it automatically converts to a month to month tenancy with the same terms as the original lease so you do not have to move out at the end of your lease in the landlord cannot make you unless they file for an eviction notice through the courts and landlords are only allowed to evict you for specific reasons)) you do not pay any rent for that month since you already gave last month's rent at the start of the tenancy. If you do create damage, the Landlord goes to court and sues you there for damages. Theey are not allowed to ask for more noney unless a court approves ir
Thats dumb in my opinion. If someone damages your property, and you dont have a deposit, good luck getting the tenants to pay. So they get a judgement, congrats! Now good luck collecting. Even hotels hold $100 deposit for damages. Just the way i see it 😊
if that's the case in Canada, i would never ever rent out my property, thy could burn it down and just leave, i think that person has it wrong, cannot see in Canada no dep is needed, now ways @@ZAMUDIOBABY
The Landlord/defendant is a liar. Period. Landlords don't always get "screwed over" just the dishonest ones, of whom this landlord is clearly a member. I'm pretty sure that the defendant was trying to take advantage of the plaintiff due to his "disability" as he probably thought that the plaintiff would be an "easy mark.' Now the defendant has been exposed nationwide/worldwide as the liar, cheat & amoral individual that he clearly is & should hide his head in shame.
The defendant is such a liar. He presented a photo that was taken two months after the tenant left and lied that he took it the very next day. He insisted that he was receiving rent for the week past (which is crazy by the way) and not in advance. Even when the plaintiff presented undeniable evidence that what he was claiming was untrue, he kept insisting on his story.
Another landlord, another case of them stealing security deposits. Every state should have a law. If you withhold security without just reason- you have to pay back at least 3x later.
11:41: I can't stand how he tlks to these pple more often than not, it's NOT productive or constructive in any shape, way or form, definitely NOT anything close to respectful & it's blatantly rude, insulting & condescending.
Defendant looks like J.K. Simmons who played J. Jonah Jameson (especially that infamous laughing scene) from the Spider-Man movies…if he owned a Krispy Kreme 🤣
It just goes to show people need their money.that landlord seems like a cheat.all that over less than 200 dollars.,and id bet he does it whenever he can.
I, and several other commenters, think he has possibly suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) or has neurological damage from some other condition. I think it’s wonderful that she’s helping him.
That girlfriend is amazing. Beautiful, soft-spoken but still strong, sweet and wonderful personality. Absolute Elegance. A very impressive quality person.
Defendant is a liar. Do it so often , it becomes a trait of the person. Best advice if you have a landlord that feels he should not have any mercy , make sure you will get the full security deposit back before you leave possession of the apartment.
It’s called an investigation. Show your ID as he had more than mere suspicion. You’re looking into a parked car with what he believes is a coat hanger on your backpack. If identity was proven the officer could have run the plate and discovered the owners name. End of problem.

RIGHT!!!! SHOULD THROW THE CASE OUT FOR HIS LIES
@@christopherbakoIs there something wrong with liking your own comment?
If she threw it out the plaintiffs would get nothing. She did the right thing by ruling in their favour instead of throwing it out @@zuritribe4844
the way hes acting, he does this to every tenant, assures them to use half the security only to keep the other half. someone needs to report this guy
Or sue them
I can see why he tried to take advantage of the plaintiff. I’m glad they came prepared
He gives off the vibe that he does this to all his tenants and typically gets away with it.

Landlords always get screwed? Maybe if you hadn't lied..
Why is he so cocky over 100 bucks? Some landlords have to pay back 1000s
He just has a massive ego, maybe even a narcissist. He was ready to go off on the judge near the end too, but she decided to ignore his comments.

"I don't care either to tell you the truth" he was MAD he got caught!!!!

Poor man seems to be struggling with life as it is and this landlord trying to rip him off too.. 🤦🏻
He said I'm not wrong...giggle
Should have a picture of the whole cabinet and where the scratch is on another picture. That could have been a scratch from anywhere.
Oh he's got a bad attitude for someone who got caught committing perjury!!!

Some do.
Some states do have provisions that allow you to sue for 2x-3x the security deposit if withheld without cause.

How di he rent it out to someone else if there were damages ???
Landlord is a jerk
Landlord is a little scary with his insecurity
He said he doesn't care either 😂😅
ive never heard of a weekly rent sounds fishy to start with
We have several places in a town near mine where bedrooms are rented. Shared rest of house. Pay weekly. Bedrooms furnished.
It's actually very common to rent rooms by the week.
Not everyone can come up with 600 a month.
Love these episodes i absolutely HATE the new show lol
SAME!!!! it seems so fake and scripted
Yes hate the new show look like it’s ultra fake no real cases 🤦♀️
@@zahrasarwari1097NOT SEEMS GOOGLED IT
@@ParishArmstead1680fake cases actor we said it last year100 times
The new one sucks. The cases are too long and the actors are bad.
Anybody else wondering how the plaintiff pulled ol girl sheesh he could barely put a sentence together
Bro could of just paid the lil 150 😅
Pay the lady sir.🙄
I am so glad this plaintiff won. That lady tried hard to do right. A heartless and cruel landlord!!
If you know anything about the last name coumo in NY, you wouldn’t be surprised the defendant may be a crook. 😂😂😂
It just goes to show people need their money.that landlord seems like a cheat.all that over less than 200 dollars.,and id bet he does it whenever he can.
What’s wrong with the plaintiff
My brains cells are imploding while watching this episode.
What a crappy landlord 😆😆😆
The boyfriend is more like her child.
This is painful to watch and im only a few minutes in.
I know y'all are going about what a jerk the defendant is but the real question here is the plaintiff's are a COUPLE??? What am I not seeing here?
I, and several other commenters, think he has possibly suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) or has neurological damage from some other condition. I think it’s wonderful that she’s helping him.
That girlfriend is amazing. Beautiful, soft-spoken but still strong, sweet and wonderful personality. Absolute Elegance.
A very impressive quality person.
Plaintiff seems a bit slow.
He defended himself very well on that scratch on the cabinet by bringing up reasonable doubt though
8 letters, starts with an R.
@@kyoto32001 I am surprised you can count up to eight.
Who knows????? Does it really matter? He was dressed well.
@@kyoto32001And your title is seven letters, beginning with an “A”.
Damage should have been stated in the rental agreement in form of " Damage Deposit in amount of ........" It's not rocket science!!
These people know they’re gonna be on national television and show up to court lookin like that. 😩
male plaintiff reminds me of Brian Wilson...same affect and demeanor
A Lying Landlord. God busted!
This is one of those "it's the principal of the matter"...smh.
I hope the new tenants watch this case because this will certainly be them next.
The landlord is ridiculous...
Landlord really went through all that to fight for 160. Hate cases for this lil bit of money.
The defendant was such a liar.
I wouldn't have bothered to sue for $160....
Defendant is a liar. Do it so often , it becomes a trait of the person.
Best advice if you have a landlord that feels he should not have any mercy , make sure you will get the full security deposit back before you leave possession of the apartment.
He did have evidence, that he wasn't truthful.
The final decision was just, and the landlord was bitter even though it was his own fault the way things turned out.
Don't know why people rent a room in someone's house. Recipe for failure. Defendant was looking to keep money for nothing.
95% of your Stuff means you owe for that week.
I would never deal with spectrum.
Its fine unless you're a lying wannabe slumlord.
They are an odd couple 😮
plantiff is slower than cold molasses
Just don’t lie! Land Lord!! Smh
It's called a security deposit, not a rent deposit.
It’s about the principal Doug! Clearly he was a liar!
Landlords have too much power in the States. The pendulum needs to swing to the renters..
Can see why he plaintiff left. He's lucky the Judge didn't rip him, for his condescending remarks.
This is the strangest couple
He seems a little slow. She seems more like his caregiver than girlfriend.
Defendant is a slum lord and will do anything and say anything to get a dime they do not deserve.
Waaaah did the poor baby landlord have to pay for stuff? Waaaah poor baby landlord
She said November 1 when she meant September. L O L
the real reason of small claims court
Who pays weekly? Weird.
It's pretty darn sad when people have to waste the court's resources and time for a $160.
That's what I'm saying...smh
The court picked the case though 🤷🏿♀️
@user-wz6ll5yq6e a show yes but it's also what happens everyday in REAL LIFE SMALL CLAIMS COURT !!
@perspectivism2006 I agree but I said this type of PETTY CASE happens EVERYDAY.
Well when people stop illegally withholding $160, people will stop going to court over it.
Bottom line: The defendant is a sloppy liar. end of story.
The picture went out ….
@1:31 He's got an issue. 😊
Please be much more kind.
old dnglish to repair that scract
Was it worth going to court for 160? Well sirrr was you going to refund me my moneyyyy??? 2k24 let silly questions GO!!
I don’t understand why they got anything back
Victim mentality is not easy huh
landlords can be assholes.
