Lousing Up a Lawn
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- The plaintiff says the defendant did tree work on his neighbor’s property, and the defendant drove his large truck on his lawn. He claims the defendant caused damage to his lawn that he was redoing, so he’s suing. The defendant argues he looked at the lawn and didn’t see any damage, so he doesn’t think he owes.
Case: 25-326
The fact that he was trespassing AGAIN to get video evidence is what cracked me up 😆
AND he used a shovel on his property. I don’t think he gets it
"Ignorance of the lawn is no excuse." Gotta love whoever comes up with the puns used on the show.
Yes, ignorance of the “lawn” is no excuse 😀😂thanks for the chuckle
Agree 😊💯 there are some great ones!
Just because I invite someone to come over to my house doesn't give them the right to come on in whenever without asking first.
😬looks like I owe my friend an apology then 😄
I love the name!!!!
Like someone else said: awesome "name" OP 😅
The defendant is EXTRA arrogant! He definitely has guts though to trespass AGAIN to take a video of the condition for court.
He doesn’t seem to understand the concept of permission at all.
the defendant probably already knows from over 30 years of experience that 99 percent of property owners never actually sue him . thats the real reason he did not pay the 260 , he thought it was just a threat or a bluff like all the others in the past and he still probably thinks he will never be sued again in his lifetime and he may very well be correct .
He was so uninterested even when answering the questions
And he said that he'll still do it next time as well
Oh boy I had to pause. I work for a tree care company and EVERYTIME work is done and you have to set foot on a neighbors property or there is a chance ANY debris comes down on their property you need written permission from the owner. Not the tenant. Written signed document for every job. Doesn’t matter of it was a month ago.. or 3 days ago.. if the dates are different than what’s on the signed written contract from the OWNER..you need a new one. Going to unpause now. This should be good.
i feel that the only reason the judge ruled against him is because he parked on the plaintiff's property without asking so the judge hit him with what a trespassing fine might cost him . and the plaintiff probably felt that if a private company is gonna make a profit using his property then he wants his 260 dollar fee .
It makes sense…renters come and go but the property own stays the same
Remember, that defendant was on his best behavior in court and still it was obvious how arrogant and disrespectful he was. What a gem he must be to deal with when the camera is not on him. If I were the landlord I would install a security cam to catch him the next time too.
The fact that he didn't even flinch when JM called him out for trespassing AGAIN to take his video shows how entitled he is. He doesn't give a shit.
One of the most obnoxious, clueless and self entitled defendants I've seen! How clueless can an individual be.
I don't know how entitled he is. He seems like just a plain old-fashioned jerk.
I've with Harvey on this one. This defendant clearly doesn't care about gaining permission and is way too comfortable having his crew trespass on other people's property. One day he's going to get hit hard with a massive lawsuit and is going to deserve every penny that he has to pay. He just doesn't care. The only reason why he lost his lawsuit was because he was trespassing. You could clearly see that rock hard ground hadn't been ground up and seeded etc. He lost and I'm very happy that he did. The plaintiff should have called the police for trespassing on the defendant since it kept happening after he was on notice not to step foot on his property.

His biggest threat isn’t a lawsuit over trespassing or damages like this one; his biggest threat is one of his employees getting threatened with a shotgun by an irate homeowner, and then that employee suing him if they get injured or end up with PTSD from the incident.
I know plenty of people that wouldn’t hesitate to start brandishing a gun at trespassers. Especially if they don’t leave after being told or cause damage to the property.
I had a brand new house that had no lawn yet (it was winter/light snow). The neighbors were still building their house & their contractors drove across my driveway, across the side yard, into their driveway so they wouldn't have to do a 3 pt turn in theirs. Then they'd back up into my driveway, pulling mud onto it. They parked blocking my driveway as if it wasn't there- I had little kids & didn't realize the driveway/side disaster until i had to pull my car out & asked them to move. It was shocking how unphased they were. I very, very kindly talked to the home owners the next time they came by, and they said they'd ask the workers not to do it anymore. Knowing we were going to be neighbors, it wasn't worth throwing a fit... but I can tell you when the ground thawed there were HUGE craters that had to be re-paved because it had been freshly 'tilled before the snow. And I had a muddy, ugly driveway until I could actually do something about it when it warmed a bit. They never offered to fix the side yard even though they were working on their own, they didn't actually even apologize, but for the sake of being neighborly it wasn't worth drama.
I'm still annoyed when I think about that.
Don't park your truck on someone else's yard, regardless of 'what work still has to be done'. It's SO rude for no reason.
I feel ya. Were you raised to be a people pleaser as well? Sounds like it’s me talking.😅
If he were to damage a water line or something with his heavy equipment, it would be quite expensive. I don't have that problem, but I have family members who do as a result of people who want to drive over areas of their front yards. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.
He should count himself lucky the sprinkler system had not been installed yet. If his 26,000 pound truck cracked all that pvc pipe & the whole system had to be dug up & replaced.....big money. I agree with Harvey on this one. I really hope the defendant does it again, and this time he does destroy a sprinkler system, & they sue the pants off him.
The defendant isn't just arrogant, he's dead wrong... in CA, you DO have to get your neighbor's permission to even WALK on their property to trim your trees otherwise, it IS TRESPASSING.
It’s not just California, every state in the U. S. has trespassing laws.
@@kac4klhc977 I'm well aware. This case took place in CA and he tried to quote at the end of the case that "in CA the trespassing laws are different", hence why I clarified.
Imagine being so stubborn to NOT pay a measly 250 bucks to repair the damage you did, but then go on national TV and put your business in a bad light. 😅 He could totally lose the contract for the tree trimming next door, plus who knows what other prospective customers.
The defendant is a typical arrogant hot head who thinks he's above the law. Glad the Judge saw through that...
Yes
How big is your rig? Do you have a picture? That's the rig? Oh that's enormous 😂 I'm so immature
Defendant is one of those people that feels entitled and no one can tell them what to do. Bet he’s a “great” husband and father to some unlucky people
First time I’ve seen both plaintiff and defendant walk in all frowned up.
If you can't contact someone to get their permission, then the answer is automatically 'NO'...
The defendant looks so angry lol.
Dang! Imagine waking up to that face everyday! Lol
Angry bird...lol
Doesn’t matter if he lived in a swamp, stay off his property!!
Wow, a plaintiff that didn’t actually tack on $5000 in pain and suffering or damages in his lawsuit. Don’t see those often!
But saying he was doin a "city restoration project" was ridiculous 🤣🤣
I don't understand why they do it. I can't recall a time when JM ever awarded damages for pain and suffering.
The guy does not need a massive rig to chop off tree branches. We have 100 year old oaks and cottonwoods on our property....alot of them.....alot. There are tree climbers that are adept at climbing, cutting and lowering branches on pulley systems.
That is a specific service that you have to pay alot more for.
That's what I was thinking. This defendant has zero respect for personal property & his methods are questionable.
@@stephaniehowe0973 Not sure about that. The cosrt never appeared to be that much more than using a huge truck. I have had both on my property given the number of trees I have.
Defendant treated his invitation like a vampire😂😂😂
"Your yard looks like neglect and crap, and yes I trespassed, but you have no case."
So the defendant trespassed again! Really!
the defendant looks very pissed off to have to show up on the peoples court
I agree absolutely 💯 with the verdict 🔨 !
The 💡 in the head of Michael Anthony Is permanently switched OFF. 😑 🥴
Defendant is incredible entitled. Harvey is right.
Ignorance of the lawn is no excuse. That's golden right there.
This guy will get sued again! 😂
I don’t think he did an ounce of damage, but he should still have to pay for the trespass.
so he trespassed on the 9th and admits he had no permission that day to be on the property
then he returns weeks later and trespasses again?
this man is dumb!
10:21 sounds like a cell phone going off.........surprisingly the plaintiff never sued for pain and suffering for a ruined lawn 😂
Dude! A Tenant cant give you permission!
Why the heck would you think oh doesnt matter
If he dug in his heels thinking I was wrong when he was wrong, he'd get knocked out of his shoes.
I live in California and he's right, it's not trespassing just to walk onto someone's property (however, it is trespassing if they ask you to leave and you don't). I thought it was the same everywhere but maybe not. You definitely can't park a monster piece of machinery on someone else's property though, or drop branches, etc. I can't believe at the end he said they would ask if there was anyone to ask -- the implication was that if there was no one to ask then they'd just do it again. Looking forward to seeing him on People's Court at some point in the future!
I was thinking the same thing that the defendant was trespassing again while videotaping!
I'm pretty sure "legal trespass" is an oxymoron... 😆
My very first thought!
What a jerk. Now he got an enemy for a neighbor.
Defendant is arrogant and has no right to place his trucks on private property. That said his evidence did seem to indicate his truck didn't cause the damage the plaintiff is charging for.
yes , i feel that the only reason the judge ruled against him is because he parked on the plaintiff's property without asking so the judge hit him with what a trespassing fine might cost him . and the plaintiff probably felt that if a private company is gonna make a profit using his property then he wants his 260 dollar fee .
@@marleonetti7 👍
Defendant looks like if Ron Swanson didn't play jazz and loves governmental interference.
"If theres someone to ask". If you dont find the property owner to obtain permission, you still dont just go ahead and do it. What a tool
That guy should lose his license he gives a bad name to landscapers
He's been in business 37 years. Therefore, he didn't damage the plaintiff's property.
I have been walking for 50 years. Therefore, the car didn't hit me when I crossed the street.
His logic is mind boggling.
By law, the plaintiff has the right to trim the parts of the tree that is hanging over into his property. If it’s a problem for the defendant to do so…. Hell! Do it yourself!!! That’ll cost him more than 300
The defendant doesn’t seem to realize the only reason he’s having a problem is because they were trespassers.
The defendant looks like Howard the duck
Nice video
Tree guy...quit trespassing lol.
Tree companies, like lawn maintenance companies, routinely act as if they have eminent domain and trespass without a care in the world. A girl I knew called a tree company for an estimate; she told them she'd think about it and let them know, and two days later they were on her property cutting down trees WITHOUT HER PERMISSION - SHE NEVER AGREED TO THEIR ESTIMATE!
Yeah. Him stomping on the ground does not prove that a TWENTY SIX THOUSAND POUND truck didn't do damage.
The plaintiff really put a mask over what the lawn project was. Big difference between restoration and violation!
when you're in the wrong, insult the other party (behaved like a child) Debate strategy 101. If someone starts with an insult, i don't bother reading the rest of the comment....waste of time.
Any person with morals would ask for permission from the land owner because what happens if last year there were different tenants than when this occurred....And to think he has the right to enter without said permission because he didnt have his number is stupid....The defendant felt entitled to be on the property to get a job done....He should have been on the land owner's property that had to have the tree removed...then to fight a 260 something bill....that's just plain stupid...now the defendant should take up gardening as a hobby because clearly there's no common sense flowers growing in his garden...
Even in California, I find it hard to believe it is LEGAL to TRESPASS on PRIVATE PROPERTY.....
I agree about everything with the lawn guys behavior, and arrogance. However, I believe he’s right too. That lawn had not been worked on! I’m curious if the owner has property elsewhere and that’s what the bills from?
a city's equipment isn't allowed on your property or any private property (parking lots etc.)only public places and land.. when they street sweep ,road work ,plow and move snow etc. it can never be on private property.. the contractors that are hired, have to follow the same rules..if not, they have to go back and clean up their mess at their expense within 24hrs..they have to get certified to be able to put in a bid for the job.. if a problem happens with the equipment and leaks on private property ,wow , it becomes a huge issue. you have to follow all enviromental laws.an enviromental officer can come and watch the repairs being done.. that defendant was %100 wrong and will end up in deep trouble..
i love judge milian
Unmitigated Gall
smh
Just Say No ! 👎 To Michael Anthony !
@@davidellis5141 , i heard that you are making a fruity snapple commercial. lmbao 🤣😂
You can't tell me that's not Ron Swanson from parks and rec.
Ok im divided here. The defendant in my opinion was right about his lawn not being tilled and it did NOT look like it had yet been renovated. The defendant is a lawn care person himself. But because he felt like he could trespass due to his arrogance he got fined for it. Basically. He shouldn't have had that huge rig on someone's property & he would've never been accused.
What’s rototill? Lol
Excuse me? It us jaw in the state of California to obtain permission to be on someone’s property.
The defendant is a jerk,but I agree that there ain’t no way that ground had recently been tilled. 😂
If she would shut tf up sometimes and actually let people finish talking, she could maybe get the whole story and they not be tongue tied!! Smh Smmfh 🤦🏿♀️
She is pushy..
He was nervous.
Of course your not going to see lawn improvement yet. It had only been a few days
No one says “louse” except here.
i understand principle but 260 come on, im sure you made a lot on the tree trimming. and look at it as a trespassing fine
The plaintive needs to get a life.
Yay me!
Gold 🏅 Congratulations ! 😃
This is how people end up in body bags, the first thing his family will say is, “he was such a good guy”, I’d play this video at his funeral. The landlord has every right to file a criminal trespassing report, he’s told him more than once. He is lucky a tenant lives there that hasn’t pulled a gun on him. The defendant is biggoty, no one has a right to somebody else’s property, I don’t know wtf he was quoting, but we have a document here, it’s called the constitution. I have the distinct feeling that this man will get what he deserves.
Yep, this guy is the exact reason we should have stricter gun laws in the U. S..
It’s insane that his first thought is to shoot and kill the tree guy bc he parked his rig is on their property. On the flip side the first thought of a rational person would be to take him to court and sue him for damages. This would hit him where it hurts and there would be no funeral or a lifetime in prison for the idiot that decided some temporary damage to his yard is worth killing a man over.
@@kac4klhc977 I think that would fall under premeditation. I was considering a tenant who saw someone trespassing who shouldn't be there. While they rent, it's their property, not knowing if some guy will just show up in your yard at any given time is a problem that the defendant has created.

David Ellis, You do remind me of Number 2 . 💩

Is it my screen, my eyes or does the plaintiff look like a zombie? Why is his face that color?? His neck looks normal color but his face looks like he put on zombie makeup.

She does kinda look like Gwen way back in the day before she went bleach blonde.

I'm divided on this. The guy shouldn't have trespassed but the Plantiff was clearly lying. They're both at fault and the plantiff shouldn't have gotten a dime just because he lied and the judge missed that part.
As someone who works in the industry, plaintiff was not lying. That tree guy knew he messed up and went. Ask and recorded the ugliest parts he could close up to try and show no work was done.
You cannot… just park your equipment in the neighbors lawn, without written HOMEOWNER permission.
The defendant probably does this often to avoid paying for climbers to get the work done properly.. (what you do instead of using a giant rig)
The plaintiff had proof. It had only been a few days so of course your not going to see lawn improvement yet. Then his massive truck packed it back.
The reason he lost the case was simple. He was trespassing on the plaintiff’s lawn. It doesn’t matter if work had been done or not. He never got permission from the owner to park his rig on his lawn in the first place. Getting permission from the tenant doesn’t count, that’s why the judge ignored it.

Ok so i can park a big rig on your lawn any day, good to know!
@@David-cc8xe Make sure you DO NOT ask permission. That's the key point in this case.
