At one point in my life, I went from making almost $80k a year with very cheap rent to being homeless and needing public assistance. I still had quite a bit of stuff (clothing, watches, TV's, shoes, nice car) from when I was making decent money. I am doing okay in life now, but I have come to realize that the problem with being poor is that everyone wants you to look poor as well. They want look into your grocery cart and see barely anything and what they do see needs to be one step up from dog food. They want your clothes looking dirty and un-ironed. Why? Because poor people should not take care of themselves and look bummy but a bum should never ask them for money because they look dirty and how dare they look the part.
Exactly! My dad went from starting a business to having a spinal injury and being disabled. He still had a bunch of stuff and learned how to drive himself around but bc he was on disability, he shouldn’t have a nice car, tvs and the home he did. People are so annoying
@@marilynwillett804Would you go to a job interview dirty? Is your house clean? Go to doctor appointments dirty? Is your significant other clean? Before you answer, answer ALL of my questions, do not cherry pick the ones you want to answer.
@marilynwillett804 obviously you're pulling your opinions out of your arse. Pawn shops don't even take tvs anymore & they pay pennies on the dollar for jewelry. Go sit down😂😂😂
I’m sorry but the judge doesn’t have a right to judge the plaintiff on what she had before. She literally told her at the beginning of the case that she was in the hospital for months. You can lose your job and not have income but still have belongings prior to losing your home.
Yeah I was a little surprised the judge acted that way, and what about parents helping her or other family members giving her gifts or organizations non profit? Idk she a judge so maybe she caught onto something we didn’t?
The plaintiff stated cancer is what lead her to be homeless! So she couldn’t have had nice things prior to?? So judgemental because she’s on assistance. Her life was changed! Smh JM just disgusting!
yeah right she has 4800, worth of things and is on assistance , ''gifts'' from relatives --however no relatives could provide shelter to her not even while she had cancer she had to beg a stranger,
How can you have nice things, while Taxpayers are paying your bills?! GTFOH. That's someone who got their priorities all screwed up. Like a panhandler wearing a fur coat.
Wrong she had no business leaving a live animal, in this case a pittbull, there while she's not paying the rent. The other stuff only went on the front porch it was safe I assume.
@@marilynwillett804 you clearly have never been a landlord. You absolutely cannot touch someone’s property and or remove it from the home before a proper eviction and lock out for it to be deemed abandoned
Perhaps the things but you cannot walk away from a live animal and expect others to keep it for you, I would for a few days then I'd bring it to the spca and ask them and the authorities what to do. I love all animals I wouldn't walk away from my beloved German shepherd even if I had no home.@@jncuttie

I hate when people ask why they have nice things and are in assistance. There’s so many reasons as to why they have those things AND people on hard times deserve nice things too.
generally, if they can afford nice things, they can afford not to be on assistance. if they have nice things and are on hard times, then they can sell the nice things for money. self-reliance is an important quality to learn in life.

MORNING EXACTLY WHAT I JUST STATED. SO OUT OF EVERYTHING SHE LOST $100 SOMETHING NEEDS TO BRING HER TO HER KNEES SHE NEED TO HUMBLE HERSELF ROLLING HER EYES TOO AS DISRESPECTFUL
RIGHT! Most shelters are full or wont accept pitbulls so people who end up struggling end up stuck with pets regardless. Thats why so many end up abandoned. If you lose everything she expects you to sell all of your things and have NOTHING! You end up paying for the same thing twice when you reestablish yourself. Keeping poor people poor. Absolutely rediculous mindset.
@@reneesjewelerydesignI didn't hear her say that her TV was three thousand dollars. Maybe I missed that part. However she can have any type of television or anything else that she works and pays for. Did you miss the part where she said she lost her home due to a cancer diagnosis. Also she purchased those items before she lost her home.
You can tell the judge is that type of person that thinks she got all she got from only her hard work and that she’s proof that because she came from a blue collar immigrant home no one else should need assistance. I’m a white passing Latino too, so I know people like her, she’s ignoring how much luck, connections, privilege, means, childhood, religion, orientation and so much more factor into it. Hard work certainly helps the odds but you’ll easily find people that worked hard all their lives but didn’t go nearly as far as someone who did way less. This person could’ve worked hard all their lives and then she got cancer and lost a lot, and saw how much the system failed her, and is doing whatever she has to do to not lose everything. And her scoffing at her having a tv after a life of work and losing it all after cancer is nothing short of crass and a lack of class. It’s like saying, “how dare you have a tv/dress like me like I do when you need help from my money”.
I don’t know why JM always thinks that because someone is on government assistance and they have “nice things” that they couldn’t have possibly be going through a hard time. This lady just had cancer and had to move into a shelter.
How do you KNOW that she is not lying about the cancer? She lied about other things and took the other guy's money. If she is on government assistance, why does she need a pit bull?
Yeah because everything people say is so truthful nowadays. If you watch enough of these shows you'll get an understanding why the judges ask why people in gov houses get all the fancy stuff all of a sudden. Cut the bullshit and stop feeling sorry for everyone
there was a recent episode with another tenant and landlord..judge asked tenant why he has so many electronics.his response was "i like the finer things" or something in that field.mind you, he's a grown man living on govt assistance. so she wasn't being condescending.she was doing her job..plantiff even tried to sublease a section 8 home from a friend which is illegal.
So sick of so many BP getting govt assistance and getting a free ride while others have to actually pay rent!! Expecting the govt to take care of them.. lazy AF
Yeah. If she can't afford to feed/clothe/house herself without a handout, she shouldn't be spending money on a TV. That's common sense. Pay for food, rent, clothes. Then, once you can pay for those without help, then you can get luxuries. A TV is not a necessity. JM sounds very reasonable.
ehh... i'm not too sure if it would have turned out well for her, if she did. she only received compensation of $100 for the tv because she wasn't able to prove any other items. then, she admitted to taking the man's $300 (or $375) and there is no proof she returned it. she might have left there owing him money.
30+ years ago when I became single after nearly 30 years of marriage, I came to the realization that I was just ONE bad decision away from becoming homeless. That realization changed my mind about homelessness. J.M. may be legally fair in her judgements but she is not always fair in her treatment of people. I don't believe that J.M is any more entitled to yell at the people before her than they are to yell at her. Or to ask a question and not let the people answer. She is very disrespectful of people and the behavior she displays makes me turn her off many times. The drama is a huge turn off for me. Sorry J.M.
I ain’t gone lie, I don’t keep receipts either. That stuff piles up. Thank God we’re in a time now where you can maybe look it up at the actual store because who is REALLY keeping all their receipts everytime they buy something?
Receipts don't last anyways, the ink fades, and then you've got a blank piece of paper. Take pictures of all your recipts. Store them someplace on your phone and you can back up the file.
Keep in mind this woman lost her home due to being in the hospital for months. She had a life before her illness and being put in a shelter. The judge is so smart, yet so dumb and out of touch with reality.
No. YOU are out of touch with reality. Nobody should have to pay for YOUR life choices. lazy people sit on their arse and allow life to drag them to the grave. People get sick every day. Some people have. Some people don't. LIFE doesn't owe you shit...
Uh excuse me, the judge out of touch. Did you go to law school and work your way up the judicial ladder? NO? then keep your trap shut and learn something.
I hate how judge always look at people that are on assistance. She talks down on them constantly. She can’t have 4 year old 50 inch TV, a bed and a tablet because she is on assistance? That’s so corny and never sat well with me.
Damn she can’t have nothing before falling on hard times?! This judge is out of pocket but she so sorry to hear she had cancer girl gtfoh. Lost all respect for judge supremacy.
So what did we learn from this, class? Apparently, you’re not allowed to own things then have life happen to you and expect people to believe that you ever owned decent things. Also, Judge Milian is very judgmental of people’s circumstances. 😊
I hate when JM acts like poor people can’t own things like flat screens tvs and tablets when they cost like 200$ each. She was being very smug and condescending
Actually the judge was pointing out the absurdity of people who buy an exorbitant amount of frivolous items, while other people's monies are used to pay THEIR bills. Nothing smug or condescending about that!
@@Michael-cp6grthe judge, and you, forgot really fast that the plaintiff lost her home because she was in the hospital with cancer and not because she was buying electronics and a dog, etc
@@Michael-cp6gr a cheap 20 inch TV or tablet are both less than $100. She said she was doing fine before she got cancer then ended up in the hospital and lost her place. She had to start over. Give some grace. If I got cancer my disability insurance wouldn’t pay enough to cover my bills and since I live in a town with no family I’d be on the street after a couple months of not working and I make over 100k a year. Life is hard sometimes. She is not impacting you directly. Don’t give yourself high blood pressure over a stranger. You heard 10 minutes of her story.
I feel for the plaintiff but her math is not adding up, if there was a deposit of $375 she still owes money for rent but the prize goes to the dude who thinks he is the one to decide he is the to carry justice, taking someone’s property without their consent is a crime and plaintiff should have called the cops from the beginning. To the landlord looking up from the beginning was telling she was lying from the beginning.
I don't think many people keep receipts for items purchased years ago. I also don't think Judge Milian's questions were racist. The judge asks the questions because the math ain't mathing.
my grandmother keeps every single receipt for items purchased (excluding things like fast food or convenience store stuff). she also keeps every instruction manual, etc. i thought she was crazy for doing that, until i reached my late 20s/early 30s, then i saw how useful it can be in certain situations. now, i always snap a pic of it and save it in the cloud.
People who get paid millions a year in a world where most people will never make that amount working all their lives see taxes as unfair and poverty a choice; they lack empathy and human decency. They're so out of touch that they think society owes them. They're the victims for paying taxes when someone like the plaintiff and billions of people work daily and still can't afford the basics like housing and food because those same millionaires won't pay them a living wage.
Is she not supposed to have a tv because she on public assistance? Girl bye! Most people who receive do work as well because it is not enough to live on!
For some reason Landlords who rent rooms think they can just put someone out and lock them out. If everything you own is thrown away it is impossible to provide proof with receipts.
Yes. And the defendants are LIARS. Bishop let something slip, and the judge missed it. 7:42 "Or I'm going to have to put you out TOO." And then the defendant LITERALLY said she was going to put them BOTH OUT. She LITERALLY even used the same phrase Bishop said she said! You could say kick you out, lock you out, take your stuff out... Put you out.
I don't understand this episode. In so many People's Court episodes, JM says the landlord has to give 30 days notice to evict who ever is living there, sublet or not, before landlord has the right to do anything let alone change the locks on the apartment
The defendant didn’t evict her. The plaintiff wanted to get out of the lease so she can leave and apparently to the defendant, they made a deal since the plaintiff was breaking the lease. She took off and left her stuff there that’s why bishop moved her stuff out so he had room for his
I'm so disappointed with the judge. Why is she judging this woman so badly. She stated that she is a cancer survivor. She is trying to rebuild her life. IJS this was mean spirited.
If someone wants to sit around with 20 old TVs, who cares? It's people who commit to pet care when they can't afford to put a roof over their head.....
She showed everything but her hospital paperwork. She is def the type that if she was in the hospital, she would be waving that paperwork around. Proooooof. U all get mad at the judge but she deals with evidence
He should've never touched her stuff and it's sad that Judge Milian is quick to assume people that are homeless or don't have a job didn't once have access to things like a flat screen tv, expensive mattresses. Some people give those away. I actually have a 50 inch tv someone was generous to give me.
Her being sick is terrible however We have to understand it’s business. Renting properties is a livelihood.. that’s her income. It’s not a shelter. If someone isn’t paying for months, of course being evicted would be the next course of action. That includes moving her property out of the home… Now due to laws, she needed to do it through the courts. Maybe the plaintiff should have communicated what was going on.
When people are homeless, they tend to lose everything they couldn't store including receipts to the things they had before getting sick and losing everything... This really sucks when they don't have everything to prove anything from losing it all, but I'm happy she still stood up for herself. I can see why she was so mad and emotional about to cry out of frustration... She just keeps having bad stuff happen to her.
The way the plaintiff smiles, with such a smug demeanor, when asked by the judge why she has so many expensive things while the government is paying her rent is disgusting.
most black women have natural talent and know how to do their own hair. That is hair that is more than likely ten dollars. Tablets and tvs are not that expensive and people can have hard times so what is the real problem ??
As a person of color who is also bisexual, my "gaydar and trans-dar" has been going off all throughout this case whenever the defendants share their testimony. No disrespect, just an observation and love for my community. Have a great day:)!
The plaintiff froze at 16 years old. The pouting, pensiveness, angst, .... its all teenager behavior. And, just like a teenager, she is trying to act like an adult, but she isn't pulling it off, even though she is an adult.
At one point in my life, I went from making almost $80k a year with very cheap rent to being homeless and needing public assistance.

Ok, expect you might have a car from before and what would fit in a car. Thinking back to when I was a poor college student and earning $300 a month.
It seems to me if one is homeless the first things to go would be the watches, tv's at a pawn shop, I doubt anyone cares if you look clean.

Did you miss the part where she said she lost her home due to a cancer diagnosis. Also she purchased those items before she lost her home.
You can tell the judge is that type of person that thinks she got all she got from only her hard work and that she’s proof that because she came from a blue collar immigrant home no one else should need assistance. I’m a white passing Latino too, so I know people like her, she’s ignoring how much luck, connections, privilege, means, childhood, religion, orientation and so much more factor into it. Hard work certainly helps the odds but you’ll easily find people that worked hard all their lives but didn’t go nearly as far as someone who did way less.
This person could’ve worked hard all their lives and then she got cancer and lost a lot, and saw how much the system failed her, and is doing whatever she has to do to not lose everything.
And her scoffing at her having a tv after a life of work and losing it all after cancer is nothing short of crass and a lack of class. It’s like saying, “how dare you have a tv/dress like me like I do when you need help from my money”.
Are they going for a jog or going to court 🙄🙄
I swear...ur not only going to court, ur going to court on TV and STILL don't dress right 😂
🏃♀️ 🏃♀️
I thought the same thing😂
Those two look like they just got off the bus! No one would know they were going to court.
They do look comfy, though. 😂
I don’t know why JM always thinks that because someone is on government assistance and they have “nice things” that they couldn’t have possibly be going through a hard time. This lady just had cancer and had to move into a shelter.
How do you KNOW that she is not lying about the cancer? She lied about other things and took the other guy's money. If she is on government assistance, why does she need a pit bull?
How do you KNOW that she is?
Yeah because everything people say is so truthful nowadays. If you watch enough of these shows you'll get an understanding why the judges ask why people in gov houses get all the fancy stuff all of a sudden. Cut the bullshit and stop feeling sorry for everyone
there was a recent episode with another tenant and landlord..judge asked tenant why he has so many electronics.his response was "i like the finer things" or something in that field.mind you, he's a grown man living on govt assistance. so she wasn't being condescending.she was doing her job..plantiff even tried to sublease a section 8 home from a friend which is illegal.
Exactly. No frills flats screens aren't even that expensive these days and the woman was working two jobs.
Umm she said she went on government assistance after cancer diagnosis, correct? This was probably temporary ppl
So because she gets public assistance she can't have a TV JM you sound very judging.
No just white privilege.
Excuse me
So sick of so many BP getting govt assistance and getting a free ride while others have to actually pay rent!! Expecting the govt to take care of them.. lazy AF
@@jlywi7171umm it’s more yt people on government assistance than BP and the stats shows this!
Yeah. If she can't afford to feed/clothe/house herself without a handout, she shouldn't be spending money on a TV. That's common sense. Pay for food, rent, clothes. Then, once you can pay for those without help, then you can get luxuries. A TV is not a necessity. JM sounds very reasonable.
Seems like she should of also sued the guy
ehh... i'm not too sure if it would have turned out well for her, if she did. she only received compensation of $100 for the tv because she wasn't able to prove any other items. then, she admitted to taking the man's $300 (or $375) and there is no proof she returned it. she might have left there owing him money.
She stole that man money and all this happened to her🤷🏽♀️
30+ years ago when I became single after nearly 30 years of marriage, I came to the realization that I was just ONE bad decision away from becoming homeless. That realization changed my mind about homelessness. J.M. may be legally fair in her judgements but she is not always fair in her treatment of people. I don't believe that J.M is any more entitled to yell at the people before her than they are to yell at her. Or to ask a question and not let the people answer. She is very disrespectful of people and the behavior she displays makes me turn her off many times. The drama is a huge turn off for me. Sorry J.M.
No matter the circumstance, never give your money to someone to pay your rent.
The judge really dropped the ball here. He named all the stuff that she said was taken but because she didn't have a receipt she dismisses smh
It's court you have to have Proof.
@dannyrose7818 who keeps receipts years after they bought it? Now I get e receipts so I'm always good.

The landlord illegally evicted her smh
That guy looks like there is something wrong with him.
Absolutely..lil man looks challenged😮
Did the judge say while we are paying…. WOW. Expecting someone to have receipts 🧐. Yeah I can’t with this judge.
I ain’t gone lie, I don’t keep receipts either. That stuff piles up. Thank God we’re in a time now where you can maybe look it up at the actual store because who is REALLY keeping all their receipts everytime they buy something?
Receipts don't last anyways, the ink fades, and then you've got a blank piece of paper. Take pictures of all your recipts. Store them someplace on your phone and you can back up the file.
Keep in mind this woman lost her home due to being in the hospital for months. She had a life before her illness and being put in a shelter. The judge is so smart, yet so dumb and out of touch with reality.
No. YOU are out of touch with reality. Nobody should have to pay for YOUR life choices. lazy people sit on their arse and allow life to drag them to the grave. People get sick every day. Some people have. Some people don't. LIFE doesn't owe you shit...
Uh excuse me, the judge out of touch. Did you go to law school and work your way up the judicial ladder? NO? then keep your trap shut and learn something.
I hate how judge always look at people that are on assistance. She talks down on them constantly. She can’t have 4 year old 50 inch TV, a bed and a tablet because she is on assistance? That’s so corny and never sat well with me.
The way the landlord was smirking he literally didn't care that he put that stuff out
She should've gotten something for the illegal lockout.
Damn she can’t have nothing before falling on hard times?! This judge is out of pocket but she so sorry to hear she had cancer girl gtfoh. Lost all respect for judge supremacy.
everyone's shady here. cant believe anything they say.
I'm fully believing Bishop
Yup, he didn't want no drama🤕
Shouldn't have put her stuff out. What happened to the dog?
The 2 defendants are definitely sus. I don’t believe a word they said lol
Me neither
Funny how your response was totally different from everyone else’s. Racist much? I can’t imagine any other reason why.
@elaine462 oh God. The racist card again. Prove it.
Just came from the gym......now let's go to court.
Judge Milan needs a true reality check.
how much is a gallon a milk? JM: 500 dollars
Also, this was an illegal eviction. Not sure how the plaintiff wasn't compensated for that alone.
Yelling & drama don't make a person right 🙄
There is a housing crisis throughout the nation. An affordable place is a feckin hustle, for real.
So what did we learn from this, class? Apparently, you’re not allowed to own things then have life happen to you and expect people to believe that you ever owned decent things. Also, Judge Milian is very judgmental of people’s circumstances. 😊
Bishop literally said all the stuff he put outside was everything she said was on her list
This case has “Hot Mess” written all over it!!!!
I hate when JM acts like poor people can’t own things like flat screens tvs and tablets when they cost like 200$ each. She was being very smug and condescending
Especially considering the woman told her she was in the hospital of 3 months.
Actually the judge was pointing out the absurdity of people who buy an exorbitant amount of frivolous items, while other people's monies are used to pay THEIR bills. Nothing smug or condescending about that!
@@Michael-cp6grthe judge, and you, forgot really fast that the plaintiff lost her home because she was in the hospital with cancer and not because she was buying electronics and a dog, etc
@@VladmirPoopN I did not forget what the plaintiff "said". I just do not believe the plaintiff.
@@Michael-cp6gr a cheap 20 inch TV or tablet are both less than $100. She said she was doing fine before she got cancer then ended up in the hospital and lost her place. She had to start over. Give some grace. If I got cancer my disability insurance wouldn’t pay enough to cover my bills and since I live in a town with no family I’d be on the street after a couple months of not working and I make over 100k a year. Life is hard sometimes. She is not impacting you directly. Don’t give yourself high blood pressure over a stranger. You heard 10 minutes of her story.
She didn’t sue for illegal eviction??? Plaintiff needs to work on those emotions, attitude…calm down 🧘🏿🧘🏿🧘🏿
Doug mouth is slick. Am I the only one who notices every episode at the end?
Yes I don't like him or the judge they so out of touch with manners
I like when they walk away from talking to him!!!
The plaintiff beat the defamation counterclaim then immediately defamed the landlord in the interview 🤦🏾♀️
Unbelievable !
I feel for the plaintiff but her math is not adding up, if there was a deposit of $375 she still owes money for rent but the prize goes to the dude who thinks he is the one to decide he is the to carry justice, taking someone’s property without their consent is a crime and plaintiff should have called the cops from the beginning. To the landlord looking up from the beginning was telling she was lying from the beginning.
I don't think many people keep receipts for items purchased years ago. I also don't think Judge Milian's questions were racist. The judge asks the questions because the math ain't mathing.
They play the race card bc they have nothing else 😂
my grandmother keeps every single receipt for items purchased (excluding things like fast food or convenience store stuff). she also keeps every instruction manual, etc. i thought she was crazy for doing that, until i reached my late 20s/early 30s, then i saw how useful it can be in certain situations. now, i always snap a pic of it and save it in the cloud.
@curiousnarwhal Your grandmother is a VERY WISE woman.
@@funnyballs192 ok big guy behind the keyboard I see
People who get paid millions a year in a world where most people will never make that amount working all their lives see taxes as unfair and poverty a choice; they lack empathy and human decency. They're so out of touch that they think society owes them. They're the victims for paying taxes when someone like the plaintiff and billions of people work daily and still can't afford the basics like housing and food because those same millionaires won't pay them a living wage.
So True.
Agreed
JM needs to calm down who keeps receipts for 4 years for a TV?????
Is she not supposed to have a tv because she on public assistance? Girl bye! Most people who receive do work as well because it is not enough to live on!
That comment about how many tvs u have and ur on public assistance was waaaaay out of line
So they just kicked the dog outside too? Poor dog 🐶
For some reason Landlords who rent rooms think they can just put someone out and lock them out. If everything you own is thrown away it is impossible to provide proof with receipts.
Plaintiff is just SO annoying 🙄🙄
She has no self control of herself in any way..
Yes. And the defendants are LIARS. Bishop let something slip, and the judge missed it. 7:42
"Or I'm going to have to put you out TOO." And then the defendant LITERALLY said she was going to put them BOTH OUT. She LITERALLY even used the same phrase Bishop said she said!
You could say kick you out, lock you out, take your stuff out... Put you out.
She is not that bad. I would have broke her car Windows if she did that to me
Because she’s upset by being illegally evicted after experiencing tragic personal circumstances?
@@themrs.1200 No. Because she is extremely annoying and cant control herself and clearly entitle and use victimization to have attention
Most people don't keep receipts forever.
I don't understand this episode. In so many People's Court episodes, JM says the landlord has to give 30 days notice to evict who ever is living there, sublet or not, before landlord has the right to do anything let alone change the locks on the apartment
The defendant didn’t evict her. The plaintiff wanted to get out of the lease so she can leave and apparently to the defendant, they made a deal since the plaintiff was breaking the lease. She took off and left her stuff there that’s why bishop moved her stuff out so he had room for his
I'm so disappointed with the judge. Why is she judging this woman so badly. She stated that she is a cancer survivor. She is trying to rebuild her life. IJS this was mean spirited.
No empathy,,or compassion, this world is sick,,there was a why to evict her appropriately..maybe the dog was for her mental health too..smh
Norbit and raspueza lol. "TELL EM!" 🤣
Is this a trans woman
If someone wants to sit around with 20 old TVs, who cares? It's people who commit to pet care when they can't afford to put a roof over their head.....
JM wow. She's suppose to have nothing.
Most of us,don't keep our receipts pass a month but over life experiences, I keep everything.
SMH, Judge Milan was out of line for her line of questioning, especially since the Plaintiff stated she had cancer and that’s why she lost her home.
The Plantiff decided to wear a workout outfit to present her case on Court TV 😂😂😂
She looked nice. She is a cancer survivor and homeless. Maybe that’s all she has.
I wanna go on this show just to curse out the sarcastic guy in the hall
“ the dog “ 😭😭😭☠️they put the dog outttt
She didn't even try to deny taking that man's 300.00. He was mad. It came down to him or her.
She said that it wasn’t true.
@@angeloc7486and then she said she gave it back to him
Let's play a game yall. Take a shot for every time the plaintiff sighs, scoffs, or gasps.
Dude I. Drunk 🎉😅
Not if you plan to drive in the next eight hours.
Nooo it's 10AM here
They came to court ready to Rumble! 😂🏃🏾♀️🏋🏽♀️🥊🥊
17:28 - she really said "the lady is the worstest landlord in the world"... 😂
🤯🤣
“idk” lmaooo she didn’t even try
Bishop looks CREEP as hell lol.
She showed everything but her hospital paperwork. She is def the type that if she was in the hospital, she would be waving that paperwork around. Proooooof. U all get mad at the judge but she deals with evidence
It sounds like there's a lot of scamming, dishonesty & illegal shit going on here & I'll just leave it at that.
He should've never touched her stuff and it's sad that Judge Milian is quick to assume people that are homeless or don't have a job didn't once have access to things like a flat screen tv, expensive mattresses. Some people give those away. I actually have a 50 inch tv someone was generous to give me.
So nice for the amazing race to do a crossover with the people’s court the way they’re dressed
The roomate is creepy af.....
The defendant's witness is HIGH AS A KITE.
Defendant shape is weird

I swear Doug is brutal 😂😂😂
Great case. I feel badly for people who have to struggle to stay warm and dry. Treated like crap.
I like this landlord. She was no fuss no muss…get out. She is correct. Nothing in life is free.
He or she said a 20 inch tv lmfaooooo
What happened to the doggy
Good question.
That plaintiff needs to control herself a little bit, geez. 🙄
Her being sick is terrible however We have to understand it’s business. Renting properties is a livelihood.. that’s her income. It’s not a shelter. If someone isn’t paying for months, of course being evicted would be the next course of action. That includes moving her property out of the home…
Now due to laws, she needed to do it through the courts. Maybe the plaintiff should have communicated what was going on.
You need an eviction you can’t just throw ppl out at your own will
When people are homeless, they tend to lose everything they couldn't store including receipts to the things they had before getting sick and losing everything... This really sucks when they don't have everything to prove anything from losing it all, but I'm happy she still stood up for herself. I can see why she was so mad and emotional about to cry out of frustration... She just keeps having bad stuff happen to her.
oh lets wear hoodies to court lol oh the verbiage and huh?? wtf... textes lol
The way the plaintiff smiles, with such a smug demeanor, when asked by the judge why she has so many expensive things while the government is paying her rent is disgusting.
A T.V. and a bed?? She was diagnosed with cancer and lost her home. Get real.
@@RacieRain Sounds as if you did not pay full attention to the video. Also I feel like her "cancer" diagnosis was exaggerated.
None of the judge's business. People do what they do to get what they have.
@@sdays59 If she's getting her expensive things on the taxpayer's dime, it's everyone's business.
@@sdays59 That is an asinine comment.
Doug is such a savage 🤣
The defendant tries to shake his hand amicably and then he goes “thank you very much…you’re going to have to pay.” Lmfao 💀
They look the type that have big screen TVs, tablets and 3 thousand dollar hair kits........just not rent money.
most black women have natural talent and know how to do their own hair. That is hair that is more than likely ten dollars. Tablets and tvs are not that expensive and people can have hard times so what is the real problem ??
The lady probably had all those things before she got cancer. Then she lost her home and took whatever she could carry.
Facts
The defendant abuses her withness 😂🤦🏾 (my bad that aint funny)
Y'all don't see that big man over there with that little man😂😂😂😂
Thank you!
Plaintiff is a drama queen. But they still can't throw out her stuff. Wow terrible verdict. She should have gotten a lot more.
As a person of color who is also bisexual, my "gaydar and trans-dar" has been going off all throughout this case whenever the defendants share their testimony. No disrespect, just an observation and love for my community. Have a great day:)!
Yes definitely trans (the defendant) thought it was just me.
@@liyahwillis4215right! I thought it was just me.
The plaintiff froze at 16 years old. The pouting, pensiveness, angst, .... its all teenager behavior. And, just like a teenager, she is trying to act like an adult, but she isn't pulling it off, even though she is an adult.
