The way the JM said “this is so embarrassing” killed me 😂😂😂
That lady really should’ve been embarrassed though lol
I was about to comment this 😂😂😂
@@blackgirlwithaseptum5895 I rewound it like 5 times and cracked the hell up each time
😂😂😂😂
Landlord/ tenant cases are my favorite
Mine too.
Yeah I kinda agree. I just am so addicted to this show. 😫 lol
I’m a spurned lover cases girl myself
Yees. Hate pet cases
Me too. Live arguing about it all within the comments
Watching this made me feel like a fabulous mom. My kids would never... ever... treat my house this way. It's really not that hard. Teach your kids to not treat your house like you live under a bridge.
what way? some dirt transfer on poorly painted walls? paint spots on the floor? a baseboard strip that needs some windex? a lot of those things are easy fixes but when you RENT you're not allowed to go in & fix it in a way that actually fixes it. In many apts you can't just paint the walls, many don't allow it. Ti fix those paint spots are easy but not in a way that a renter could. That's an apt that hasn't been updated since around 1986, scuff marks and divots and dirt is a given. Let the owner go to Lowes with that 1700 and bring the place into the 21st century.
@@Scion_of_light In order for a bldg to be protected & residents not allowed to alter it, the structure must be registered it's a long involved process, not just having "historic value". I owned a Victorian built in 1910, renovated it for 20 years, fixed it, drywalled, did the ceilings the baseboards the mouldings, etc. it really is as easy as I made it out to be.
People under the bridge keep their living area cleaner than that
@@murder1015 you'd be surprised what a shitty paint job with no primer can do. Just touching a wall with black gloves on can transfer in seconds. Nice one liner but no points.
Agreed. From the look of her filthy oven, her kid is only following what is role modelled!
Her exact reasoning is why when one of my tenants puts in a notice to vacate I always attach their copy of the notice to a form that states what we look for and charge for upon moving out so there’s no party that acts dumb or lies
That’s a really good idea. Very helpful and no surprises at all. Love it 😊
Out of curiosity, do they still act dumb sometimes?
Smart! Everyone covers what they must! That's great!
Exactly. No one can claim ignorance. 👍🏻
100% wish all landlords did this it'd clear up so much issues ppl would know or have the option of fixing or cleaning things up b4 hand.
Sounds like her son was very destructive… and she allowed it to happen.
She's a scam artist and he seems aloof. How did this go wrong?? 🙄😐
With the plaintiff's attitude, you would have thought she had left the place immaculate, instead it had been severely damaged by her children, and the oven was a disgrace, even though she apparently had a cleaning lady. She's lucky she got anything back, because the repairs needed, due to her children, looked extensive...
"...and the oven was a disgrace..." 🤣🤣🤣 I feel you.
You r right about the plaintiff's attitude - and what was up with her filing in Connecticut? But I'm surprised JM didn't respond to the defendant's non response about the list of damages within 30 days - I thought usually the landlord is penalized if they don't send you a list of damages within 30 days.
@@missy67 not in CT. That was covered at the beginning of the video, I believe.
the boy friend better run from her while he can.. she's a scammer.
that place hasn't been updated since 1986, he should use that cash to bring it into the 21st century, and maybe he can learn how to properly paint the walls so that not everything transfers like it did in the photos. walls without primer will collect dirt for everything, you don't have to be a dirty person for that to happen. it's called a shitty paint job
She knew about the NY v Mass penalty situation for sure!
Couldn't pull the fast one on the judge though.
And that left her with egg on her face even more.
Showed judge right off that she has a credibility issues
Connecticut not Mass
She let her son run that place . She let him do everything , no discipline or anything. Kept that house filthy. Craziness
LOL 🤣 Why because their were some marks on the wall and few drips of paint from the years of them living there?
@@adammiller9179 - Spray paint on the floor (you do NOT spray paint indoors), kicked in door, banging his skateboard on the wall, lying about damage to the cabinets. If you think this is minor, your kids probably have no consequences either. Or you didn't.
First kept saying she didn't know how door hinge got damaged and then eventually says son did it.Judge said if you lie about that how do I know you are not lying about everything else,well she was lying until pressured to tell the truth.we all know these kind of mums that have kids with no respect and let them get away with everything.
Facts
What, like storing their skateboard against the wall?! OMG, the horror!!
@@adammiller9179 You sound like you might be the plaintiff's eunuch boyfriend.
Who spray paint in the house!!! Her son is a Menace she needs to get in control of him.
LOL!! A menace! He must be stopped!
The look on her face when called out for filing in a jurisdiction where she would get double was priceless. Did she actually believe she wouldn’t be responsible for any of the massive damage left behind?
JM: "What part is this Douglas?"
Douglas:"Time to rule."
ROUGH JUSTICE! Douglas, you had one job man
😂😂. I thought the same thing.
It wasn’t a rough justice case
Dam it Douglas!! It’s tough justice time ! He never gets it right. Lol
@@traceyaz125 it was
JM had to come up with a figure that was fair and both sides might not like it
That's basically the definition of rough justice in people's court
@@traceyaz125 yeah it was dude
I love when they say idk to simple questions like “yes lie to me”😍🥰 is written on her face😭😭
Douglass was supposed to say it's time for a little rough justice 😂 not ruling
I understand that the plaintiff did damage to the residence and it was silly of her to think she would get all her money back, but the landlord should've done a walk through with her and sent her a list of damages. He did neither, then penalized her for water damage from bad pipes in the building, which is nuts. She had to take him to court just to get a fair assessment of damages to get some of her deposit back. Dude was trying to keep all her money.
As far as the damage from the bad pipes, if a tenant does not make the landlord aware of an issue that is not their fault and just let's it go to just get worst then they are most certainly responsible.
😅😅😅😅😅😊😊😊😅
Come on, Douglas, it’s not “time to rule”, it’s time for a little rough justice!! 😂
My wife and I are landlords. We own a few apartment complexes and a few houses.
Most of our tenants have been great, but a few were horrible and destructive.
For the filthy destructive tenants, I’d have to take to court and always won.
Whenever there’s anything that goes wrong with our properties, I immediately call a plumber, electrician, etc to have it repaired.
I had one tenant who rented an apartment from us for over 30 years. She was awesome. Her bathtub ran over one time. It flooded her apartment and the apartment below her. She had renter’s insurance and they repaired both appointments and put not only her but also the other tenants in a hotel until they were repaired
Going through that now. My tenant trashed the place and left 90% of their thongs behind because they don’t care. Every single wall had holes. And some had BODY sized holes.
@@mikaelawagenbach7075 WOW, get pictures and take them to court
@@Doc1855I wish it was that easy. I do have photos, but lots of people can’t afford to pay. It becomes more of a hassle.
@@Doc1855I could send you the pictures. Unless you’re on a show like this where they pay out , it ain’t even worth it
@@mikaelawagenbach7075 If you get judgement against them in a court, then you can have their wages garnished until their debt is paid in full.
I’ve had a couple of bad tenants who put me down as their last landlord.
I’ll Always give the new perspective landlord my personal experience and the tenant.
I won’t embellish, but I simply tell them the truth and tell them that I would Never Ever rent to them again.
By law I cannot embellish, nor would I, because how do I know if it’s a perspective landlord or someone else who my crummy tenants put up to see what I would say.
I can legally say something like, They were X months behind on rent and I had to go through the costly expense of evicting them, or they always paid their rent on time but they cost me X amount in damages.
I’ve had previous landlords tell me about the person.
I also do a background check and credit report on each of my tenants before I allow them to rent from me.
When someone’s wages are garnished, employers HATE it as it costs the employer more money.
Good Luck in getting your money back.
The landlord has the personality of a blank piece of paper. And her skateboard son doesn't gain a lot of sympathy, either (although she loves to blame him for everything, so he does serve A Purpose in this.)
personality of a blank piece of paper - excellent
"Personality of a blank piece of paper" 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 begging for permission to use this it's actually an argument stopper😋
Wasn't he suppose to send her a written itemized letter explaining why he's keeping the deposit within 30 days or something??
Thank you! So confused lol
@@Klw2010 She started to go down that path and then just dropped it and never went back to it.. I don't get it because other cases she's ruled against the landlord for not giving the letter even if they had a valid reason for keeping it. I don't get it 🤷♀️
@@sashabenoit1518 Same here. And I've seen the same kind of ruling that you mentioned. I don't understand it either.
She said at the beginning NY doesn't have that law of double damages. That's where the apartment was. Plantiff tried to swindle more by filing in Connecticut.
Gosh lady, you and your son had no respect for your home. Nasty!
Thats one destructive son.
Yes, and a dirty person (mother) as well
Why didn't the landlord do a walkthrough with the plaintiff?
good question!
13:19 No, Douglas! You were supposed to say "ROUGH JUSTICE"! 🤣🤣🤣
She really does have a ridiculous and disgusting manner. So dirty. And what teenager is allowed to spray paint in The house
It’s time for a little “Rough justice “ Douglas you messed up again lol 😂
She’s blaming everything on her son lol 😂
She had a cleaning lady who left the apartment like that. And what’s up with her son destroying the apartment?
Douglas missed the rough justice 😢
Well, usually they do rough justice when the party claiming for damages is not able to produce evidence of the cost to repair, which was not made obvious in this case.
"How are you supposed to communicate if a man doesn't talk to you?" Haha...ha..ha.... are you my wife? 😅
“What part is this Douglas?”
Douglas: Time to rule 😎
I was thinking rough justice. I’m to rule just sounded weird
@@unsolvedmisstory3049 she was keeping Douglas on his toes
Plaintiff did leave a mess but she is right when she said that the landlord has to send a list within a certain amount of time... usually 30 days... or return it. interesting that JM did not honor this.
I found the shower blister tremendously ominous and frightening. NO WAY I could shower near it...
And those baseboards😬... Whoa to it all
I was on the same page with JM on the verdict but the plaintiff is right. She didn't get a written reason as to why he was keeping her deposit for MONTHS. In fact, he was radio silent. He now forfeits any rights he may have had , does he not ??
No. It has been explained in other cases the only time a plantiff gets it back, and doubled in some cases, is if the money was wrongfully withheld.
@@ButtonsCasey that is partly correct. They need to send a written itemized letter as to why theyre withholding the deposit. They have 30 days to send that
The Judge did take it in consideration which is why he got half. $1700 for the cat damage deposit and then just a regular deposite.
Exactly! That’s what she always says… and this time she didn’t apply it. She’s never consistent
I think she dropped the ball. If the lease says he has to send a check or itemized deduction list then that should have been brought up. He sent no letter so she should have really got it all back.
I was looking to see if anyone noticed this. Isn't it like.. a general rule that a landlord has to give an itemized list within the 30 days after you move to be able to keep deposit?
The way the defendant is acting like he just doesn't gaf is almost irritating.
The tenant should’ve simply argued that she did not get a list of damages within two weeks, which was a requirement in her lease. She mentioned this after the case was decided, I don’t know why she didn’t bring it up as her one and only argument.
No Douglas, it's not time to rule.. it's time for a little rough justice :D
The plaintiff is in a great big pile of denial- and her boyfriend appears to be embarrassed enough for the both of them.
"A child learns what he lives". Obviously this mother missed that lesson, as the evidence clearly indicates a house torn asunder. 😏😬🙄
I mean, like 🤨 damnnnnnnnnn.
the evidence shows an apt that hasn't been updated since 1985 & the landlord wants it immaculate. that's the real funny thing about this case. that and the shitty paint job on the walls where every single thing transfers making them appear dirty. I wish landlord would learn how to properly paint walls, they do this garbage so much it almost comes off like a scam to not return security.
Slumlord! That water leak bubble in bathroom - disgusting.
I’m watching from Australia. We do a walk through tenant and owner/ agent with a checklist and photos. Anything and everything is written down and photos. There can be no argument after that.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 she thought she was slick
Lol at the defendants exit interview. Of course the plaintiff didn't complain about all that water damage when she moved in! If that was the state of the place, she certainly wouldn't have moved in to begin with!
" Alrighty Harvey "😂😂
Isn't that her point though? He didn't know because he wouldn't talk to her about things, looks like he just wanted to keep her money, so blame her for all the damage.
I know right. Most of the damage wasn't from her or her family it was the mysterious and rarely seen Damage Fairy. He'll need to hire a Damage Fairy exterminator which can be very expensive.
@@Channel-JJ water
@@annereidy7981 exactly. Damage Fairy's have some Water Nymph DNA, it's in all the text books.
@@Channel-JJ sprites, you have the wrong text books!
She was a 🐷.
So awesome how judge MM Let's people tell their story, unlike other judges, just making the story that much more interesting 🤔
She's not the only judge who dies that, but do you boo.
The landlord is to blame she realized her son did some damages but he didn't get back to her SMH he knows he was supposed to send a letter or something and all she wanted back at the time was the pet deposit now it cost him 1700 instead of 1200
punctuation?
If he never gave her an itemized list of the damages...why was he allowed to keep any of her deposit?
I think possibly because the damages that her or her son did was just so much that the judge had to give him something for that
@@davital.washington7416 except the show pays the judgments so the landlord gets to keep the full amount either way. Seems maybe it was just to punish the tenant for leaving it such a state? 🤷♂️
In some apts, they do rush jobs when it comes to painting. They often will NOT prime the walls or throw just one coat of paint up, this can cause transfer of EVERYTHING from handprints to color transfer from clothing to you name it. I have this problem in my apt, every single thing transfers to the walls, we are not allowed to paint in here, walls are white, no one primed, any opportunist landlord will hold the deposit for this. As soon as I noticed this shit was happening my first thought was oh shit I'm not getting a security back. I owned a house for TWENTY YEARS I know what this is and how to fix it and how to not allow this to happen, but it's not from a tenant being dirty, it's called a shitty paint job. Today, they'll do ANYTHING to avoid returning a security deposit. Because of this shit paint job in my apt I don't foresee EVER getting a deposit back.
Such a good point!! Same thing happened to me.
This lady KNEW the damage were present. But wanted a List of her damages ?! I would have given her a LOOOONG list of her damages and countersued for her repairs.
Douglas you had one job.... time for a little rough justice
Even though she did have some damages in the apartment if the landlord actually did not do a run through when she left to at least negotiate what will happen maybe this whole thing could have been avoided for apparently he didn't want to bother and then did his own way causing a lawsuit
She destroyed that place yet still wanted her entire deposit? Delusional.
"Destroyed"? You seem to be the delusional one.
The plaintiff is a bad housekeeper. She literally doesn't see the dirt surrounding her in the apartment.
“These are so embarrassing” 😭😭😭
Kurt's narrations are hilarious. He must've aspired to be an actor. lol
Do you guys in the US have house inspections during tenancy? Like in Australia the agent does inspections every 3 months so that any issues are resolved during the tenancy!
Uh oh! LEGALLY, The plaintiff is entitled to ALL of her money back because a landlord has 30 days to give the tenant an itemized list of what and why they are keeping the deposit. If she were still a judge she would be sanctioned for that ruling. She also would not be allowed to talk to those in her courtroom the way she sometimes does however, I guess that is for tv. I think she is making a mockery of the justice system when she acts like this as well as allowing the law to be swept under the rug.

It’s mediation in the form of a court setting for a show. She can do what she wants.
Divorce is never the way out, My wife and I have been having issues before I sort out help from a spiritual adviser, i wasn't going to let my marriage of 18years crash.
@Abigail Prewitt well not the orthodox way but i was referred by a friend to a spiritual adviser and healer.
@Abigail Prewitt her name is Shelly Renee White, and she is a great spiritual adviser as well as caster.
@Abigail Prewitt you can look her name up online and you will find all you need.
Stop spreading spam.
I doubt this is a real conversation.
You're full of crap. Divorce is often the answer. I would never stay married to a weirdo like you. Why are you spewing this nonsense here?
She should have had to pay extra instead of getting money back. She and her boyfriend were liars.
Going to clean and paint my baseboards. Lol.
I'm surprised the plaintiffs didn't suffer from mold inhalation! The pipe leaks were inexcusable. Disgusting actually.
He charged 17k for a cat he is crazy
i am a painter and landlords call me to paint walls and do touch up . i wish they paid anything close to what they claim it cost them to hire a painter to paint the walls . a two or three bedroom place can have all the walls painted for under 1 thousand dollars and many times the whole place just needs a touch up which is like 300 to 500 dollars , these landlords totally lie about the costs of painting and cleaning .
We really need to talk to this kid lol
This plaintiff is a liar. And apparently she has an entitled brat for a son, for whom she shields from responsibility. That's what I'm getting.
I loved the part at the beginning when the judge asked the landlord a question and he was about to get long winded but paused and she cut him off before he could spew some crap. lol
She seems to be clueless on purpose! The nerve of her to ask for a her security back.
When you have young children it's to be expected that a house will messy even dirty at times. When you have grown children it's not expected for them to destroy the house to any extent barring some sort accident. This is a disgrace.
It’s not expected of any age for a kid to destroy a home. Kids can be messy, but at no age should they be destructive
That's literally what I said. Thank you for reiterating.@@BeccasaurousRex270
How does she EVER get the REAL FACTS down and REALLY understand peoples situations if she NEVER lets the people get a full explanation out? She constantly cuts them off in mid sentence talks over them and ASSUMES that she knows it all!!!! This judge is friggin ridiculous at times.....lol!!!!! Annoying AF!!!
When she said. This is so embarrassing. 😂 I never understand why people make an effort to allocate time to clean. It doesn't have to be all in one day. sugar soap and a sponge lol.
So the take away here is she should keep the cat and put the son up for adoption!😂😂
I am so sick and tired of people not answering JM’S questions! JM asks a question and the plaintiff or defendant starts rambling on about everything else except for the answer to the question! So irritating!
Rough Justice Douglas 😂 wake up!
She had no control over her son.
He would have to get a job to pay me all this money back.
He has holes in the roof and tries to blame her for things peeling? BAHAHAHA
9:59 " He wasn't spray painting on the floor, he sprayed something else and it got on the floor" THAT'S GETTING PAINT ON THE FLOOR. SMH 😒
IT'S UNFAIR TO THE DEFENDANT OR AT LEAST MAKE IT $2K FOR HIM AND $700 ONLY FOR HER.
THESE TENANTS DAMAGED THE PLACE. WTH! 🤦🏻♂ , 🙅🏽 , 🙄
She didn't deserve anything back!!!
This lady’s son doesn’t seem to have respect for anyone’ s property.
Plaintiff got called out on her double damage scam. I guess she was going to get some money regardless of the verdict as she brought Big Huey with her. Plaintiff seems like super low energy his spirit animal is a sloth.
Oh she knows she filed in Connecticut to try to get the double damage. She's a mess, the damage they caused is a mess, and she's trying to get money for living like a mess.
when a plaintiff says she has the law on her side you better watch out Bc she might just get a rude awakening
That son needs punishment. He sounds like a brat. It sounds like she gives him ZERO consequences. Spray paint? Kicking in the door? The BS story about a glass falling???
Douglas got it wrong that day. It was time for “a little rough Justice”
why is the question that Harvey asks all the time, is it the tenant or the landlord, no one seems to have pride in their homes whether rented or owned? I am shocked that such bad tenants actually have visitors to that place.... Where is their pride in their homes that they live in??? urg disgusting dirty place, clearly no one really cleans there
I always disbelieve all defendants that ask for double or triple damages.
Trashed the property, shameful
13:20 - Doug almost did Judge Judy's catchphrase. He must not have had his coffee yet.
Thats not Judge Judy's catchphrase. That's this judges catchphrase. Which is why it's weird he didn't say it lol
@@Klw2010 No. He was supposed to say 'rough justice.' That's JM's catchphrase. She's ready to rule is JJ's.
She's ridiculous 🙄 😒 and he should've done a walk thru 🙄 😒
I agree with the plaintiff. It should have been deemed that the landlord forfeited his right to withhold any money from the tenant bc he did not provide her with timely notice. She should appeal at her local court.
The headache of being a landlord!!# Madness
Defendant is such a slum lord. Really, 5 months later he tells her why he kept any of the deposit.
I know the show aired for years with similar cases. And it had to be hard to come up with different questions. But, honest, 9 out of 10 times, when cases are about this that deal with tenants and landlords the question is along the lines of: "DO YOU THINK TENANTS DON´T CARE FOR THE PLACE THEY RENT?" or "DO LANDLORDS ARE ABUSIVE AND WANT TO KEEP THE SECURITY MONEY?".
...seems to me that, at a certain point, he just didn´t care and every time a case like this happen he´d, automatically, ask the same thing. Drives me nuts.
Slum Lord defendant needs to read up on HUD and local housing rules on maintenance, for he has a lot to worry about.
This judge is all over the place.. she always says if the letter is not sent then the tenant will automatically get security deposit back and sometimes doubled. She always says her hands are tied but in this case she didn’t apply that. I swear she just rules based on how she’s feeling
Landlord-Tenant Laws are different in every state.
I was confused that the judge didn't address that too. What happened to "Landlords have a responsibility"?
@@kaylabutts1999 yes but this case was in NY.. and she specifically mentions it for NY all the time
Yea, i also felt like she was pretty shaming to her.
There's wear and tear and then there's intentional damage. She thought she could get away with it lol
NY is double after 14 days and only one month security deposit max is allowed. The judge does not know the law, it is even in excess of $5000. Normal wear and tear is allowed.
I agree, and I know the plaintiff, I saw her a few times in Mamaroneck, NY at the gym, when I used to live there.
The defendant came in with that briefcase like he was going to trial😂😂😂also he's the only one that can actually see today
Landlords do not return your deposit .They use every excuse to get out of paying .
