His sister had the right to leave her stuff to whomever she wanted...life isn't always fair.
True, but don't defend the greedy thieving cousin.
Then the cousin should have taken care of the sister
@@sakhilemathumo-mhodi2901 It wasn't part of her plan.
@@auaiao9 Where do you read where she defended the cousin? Nothing in the comment said so and I quote "His sister had the right to leave her stuff to whomever she wanted...life isn't always fair" unquote- do you always assume or do you actually understand that anyone has the Right to leave whatever they want to whomever they wish, cause if it was you, you would be backpedaling your comment
@@keahithefieryone8513 You are correct that the sister had the right to leave her stuff to whomever she wanted, and I understand it perfectly. However, by saying that there's the small part that comes across as defending the cousin since nothing in the statement defended the sibling(s).
His body language shows just how irritated he is, he can not contain himself.
Ikr.
Watch part 3, you'll see why he's upset
Understandably so; it was a slap in face. I'd sue my sister's estate until there was nothing left.
@@texan903 maybe quit treating people like they owe you anything, hope you have nothing in life lol
Good 👀 ....^^ 🙃
My father saw a case like this, but it was SO much worse. This woman cared for her mother for her entire life. The mother emotionally and psychologically abused the daughter, and controlled all of her movements. The daughter wasn't allowed to go out without permission, and definitely wasn't allowed any friends or a boyfriend at any point in her life. The mother lived into her 90s and when she died she left everything to the local cats shelter. The daughter, who was seventy, had no one and nothing, as it was all taken, her only home, her belongings, everything except her clothes were put into the estate and given to the charity (I am still disappointed in the charity for accepting the donation, knowing where it came from, they could have at least let her live there for the remainder of her life before taking it). The local community rallied and got her into a boarding house with free meals for the rest of her life, which was only a couple of years. Her whole life was spent looking after her mother, and her mother being the spiteful (insert expletive here) she was, made sure her daughter would have nothing without her, even in death. Don't expect anything from anyone and live as though you will get nothing.
It's sad when your mother is a narcissist:(
What a terribly sad story!
I don't usually get hit this hard in the comments but this story made me cry. That is so fucking heart breaking.
Wow I’m appalled that’s so sad. Poor woman, what a life she lived. I hope wherever she is now she’s happier
thought you’d say she ended up homeless. she was lucky people helped her. unfortunately some have similar circumstances and end up homeless
Dude's not winning anyone over with his "It's not about money" attitude. Mate you're suing for money.
He is suing for closure. This was a crap video. I wanna hear what the judge had to say. Boo. This sucks. I wont click on this junk again.
@@thomasallen6980 there’s a part two, Judge Judy is usually 1-3 parts per case posted on the channel
Suing for Legal fees correct yourself
@@skipp692 That man was nothing but disingenuous and I'm sorry that you're such a terrible judge of character that you can't see it.
You clearly didn’t watch the entire case. This video says PART ONE. It was not about money at all. The cousin was a complete fraud. Stop making misled comments about half stories. It’s annoying.
Weddings and funerals bring out the worst in people 🙄
And divorce
And having children
Reminds me of my brother. Noone helped me with our mom. I'm disabled,had surgeries yet worked on her house,took care of her before she died. Brother got mad it was all left to me . Turned me into irs. Who needs enemy's when you have family
Yep. I took care of both my parents, paid their back taxes. I got 2 sisters that think i owe them. ???
There's always entitled people in the world. Many of them happen to be family.
My brother was an absolute ass hole when my mom just passed these brothers is something else
I don't mean to be nosey but has he gotten karma for doing that to you? I mean you have already been through so much and helped take care of your mom when you had problems and he thinks you owe him,that's a little mind boggling to me (I'm sorry if this came across as rude I'm really bad when it comes to wording)
Did you lie on taxes Charlene?
I took care of my dad for 8 years. No help from my bothers. Only to turn around and found out one had a life insurance on him and didn't help bury him or get a headstone.
I did. Found out a year later that 100,000 was paid. Never said anything to him about it cause I would still rather have my dad. I'm still mourning him.
I'm sorry that happened to you. The difference is you have a clear consciounce and can live with yourself.
And out of that 100,000, nothing was paid to you? I am confused statement " Never said anything to him about it" who are actually referring to ?
Sorry for what happened to you
I’m sorry :(
I did the same with my mum. I was happy mum left everything equally to us all as I know she loved us all equally. Despite me being the on to stay to care for and look after her, I would do it all again to have her back. Now 10 years later, I no longer have a sibling relationship with my sisters. Greed got in the way on their part. I would have done anything for them because I love them. They don’t realise that money is temporary.
People always fight over money once someone dies, it's sad and disrespectful to the deceased loved one
Exactly. Steal it from them while they're still alive.
@@AliensAnonymous No no no 😂
Exactly!
Yeah it's sad how families always fight over money after the person dies but why the person is alive they can't be bothered to take two damn minutes to take their sorry asses over to see if everything's okay. This woman should have done whatever she wanted to do with her money and this guy needs to get the hell over it
At my Mom's bank right before she passed. SIL walked in, announced to the officer "This isn't about $$". When she went to the restroom, the officer, who I knew very well, told me "I've been doing this a long time. Anyone who says that is always all about the $$. Be careful." And I was. After she passed, we find out from the attorney that Mom had put the house in my name. (Told the lawyer that she and my brother got enough $$ from her over the years.)
Tried to sue. Man, I miss my brother...
My Aunt died. She left some money to me and 1 sister. But I have 2 other sisters and 2 brothers who received nothing. My sister and I pooled the money we got and then divided it up between all of us. The Aunt was not the nicest person in the world. I felt she wanted to cause problems even in death by not being fair. We took care of that.
That was very kind of you, and wise to not allow money to divide you and your siblings.
Yup, be smarter than what you are face with
You did the decent thing ,🌷
My grandma did this. Wish my aunts / uncles/ mom divided everything up fairly like u did and not let money ruin the family but they did not
Well done 👏 ✔
This guy can not hide his irritation. It’s hilarious
Which is ironic, because he's a truly irritating person.
He’s been watching JJ shows and is trying to behave himself….but the irritation he feels oozes from every pore.
I find it so disgusting to fight over a dead person's belongings.
I never really knew my older brothers until our mother died. I don't have any family pictures or even my own school photos or any of my report cards. I'm 68 so I guess I'll never see them again.
@@jennylee9278 just as well. They sound like a bad lot.
“it was not monetary driven” he said as he stood in court suing a member of his family for his late sisters money… 😂🤡
It blows my mind that it isn’t blatant to the majority of people that Anna CLEARLY has ASPD and very, very likely preyed on a dying woman to get left everything. Like no wonder people like her are able to do what they do. Almost no one, including you, seems even remotely capable of picking up on very obvious signs of predatory behavior.
@@theonejokeking3191 go blow your mind elsewhere - i’m not interested in buying crazy today
It was because of her lies that caused him to need $ to get a lawyer to clear his name
That's not why he's suing her, so you're the 🤡. Try watching all parts first.
@@100BD because you already own it whole.
He's irritated because JJ reads him like a book.
He’s been playing the “innocent good brother/ caretaker who got screwed over” to his friends and family- Judge Judy doesn’t care about any of that and he cannot stand it.
JJ clearly read him like one of her own books, probably titled "Beauty Fades, Dumb is Forever".
Watch part 3. You'll see the cousin plays and lies well.
@@biruss I watched all three parts. They're both terrible people if you ask me
@@pisto30 She seems to be infinitely worse than him.
Exactly- it was her money- she can do what she wanted with it.
the way he’s acting you would think she left $1million
This happened to me with my sister. Let it go. Move on.
It was a dick move to leave it to someone other than the one that took care of her for a long while before she died but she had every right to be a dick.
After watching part 2 and 3 my guess is that the dead sister was less a dick and more of a victim of Anna. That women gives off manipulation vibes.
@@pogochick5990 it’s the cheap wig
Ahhh...the true vultures always come out when family passes
Amen on that statement
Interesting how this story is missing the most crucial party; his sister. Without her, he can say whatever he wants about how much he helped her, and no one can either confirm nor deny it.
How much he helped her isn't material. Only the will is.
We can confirm it because his sister didn’t leave him anything for him so he probably wasn’t really close to her
@@ninosimone That's not what she asked to be confirmed.
@@ninosimone You cannot infer that at all. In my Will, I've left the bulk of my estate not to people who I am closest to or who have helped me the most, but to the people I know who need it the most. My much closer friends and family are reasonably well off, know this and are in complete agreement - the reason I told them is in order to avoid them being surprised or resentful should I die (which hopefully won't happen any time soon).
@@davemould4638 I agree, if I know that you have a stable well paid job you shouldn’t expect me to leave you a huge chunk of money when there are other family members who need it way more. That’s just selfish
The look on Colonel Sanders' face when the wife is told to be quiet is hilarious.
The plaintiff clearly has zero awareness into how irritating he really is.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY. HIS ATTITUDE SAYS IT CLEARLY.
I think the will and being in JJs court might be the first times in plaintiffs life he did not bully and fast-talk his way into control lmao
Exactly and that’s why I love this show. It features people who are usually sh*tty human beings in life and JJ will call them on their bs. It’s something these kinds of people aren’t used to dealing with, because they’re able to manipulate and bully everyone around them.
It’s entertaining and sad.
Watch part 3.
This comment didn’t age well.
When you watch all parts you'll see how wrong you are.
@@djnoneofyourbusiness525 it's entertaining but sad watching fools pass judgement before knowing the full story.
I like how Judge Judy immediately addresses the ignorant: "I didn't ask you a question".
I wish he would just be honest that he likely felt unappreciated that he was the one taking care of his sister, yet she left everything to her cousin who may not have done as much for her. Even if he took care of her out of the goodness of his heart or obligation not expecting all her money in turn, that would still make most people feel slighted like it was intentional that she left him nothing, so it's ok to admit that. The fact that he tries to act like the money didn't bother him at all makes me question his credibility and intentions...Like what are you trying to hide.
He’s obviously doesn’t want to sound materialistic and trying to hide it. I agree he should admit how most people would feel if they were in that situation.
@@Naturefan354What's obvious is people only hide things they're guilty of. If he's not materialistic, then clearly there's no need to hide it. He doesn't have to appear perfect. It may not be all about the money, but it is a factor and he shouldn't feel like he has to be fake and pretend it's not. Of course he felt slighted - he's human, materialistic or not.
It still didn't change the fact that the cousin took what was owed to him in a sneaky underhanded way through the insurance payment, so he didn't have to hide his feelings when she's obviously the more greedy person among them.
@@justme830210 🙌🏼
Try watching all parts before passing misjudgement.
@@Naturefan354 no, he just doesn't want to be accused of being a thief. Watch all parts!
The reason why she left all of her assets to her cousin is probably the same reason why he is in court. He's manipulative He didn't fool anyone, not Judge Judy nor his sister.
Watch part 3. She's a liar
@@biruss They're both cut from the same cloth. Family reunions must have been challenging.
He wasn’t the one fooling people. The cousin was. He’s only suing for the money he needed to clear his name. He’s not suing for Will money.
@@savannahvick5266 I never said he was suing for the money. He is manipulative and so is his cousin, so maybe it runs on the family.
You dont know the facts
The cousin was the shady one!
His sister was just a user
Watching Judge Judy you get free life advice, free legal advice, parental advice, everything lol. Judge Judy out here raising grown people 😂
-xD !-
Wife shouts out
JJ: I didn’t ask you a question 🤣
I have a brother - he’s the last person I’d leave a cent to.
Same.
Same
Me too.
Same
Hey at least her brother looked after her. My brother would leave me to fend for myself. Didn't even have the heart to stay with mom at hospital until she passed. Actually was going to leave while she was aware..and she cried "Robby dont leave..wanted till she fell asleep and left anyways. Families can just suck
Had a friend who's father was awarded a sizeable settlement in a class action suit. She was in charge of handling the money when he passed. I told her to be careful because when it came to money families can turn very quickly. She assured me they weren't like that. Things went fairly smoothly until her mother became ill with terminal cancer a very short time later. As soon as mom passed the tide turned and WWIII erupted. She was in shock that her siblings could be so greedy. But, sorry to say, I told her. It happens all the time.
It very embarrassing, then you confide in people and find out the same thing happened in their family.
Judge Judy read him like a book! 😂
No she didn’t
"It wasn't about the money" and yet....here you are....suing for money...
I love the defendant. Silent. Let him speak. Clearly he’s a jerk. She doesn’t need to say a word.
Watch part 3
@@biruss I did
@Lizwindsor then you would know the cousin is a liar and a thief.
Disgusting what money does to families! I hate seeing the greediness!
"No it wasn't irritating, it was a surprise."
Meanwhile his face: 😡😡😡😡😡
Those commenting should watch the subsequent clips. He was right to do what he did. He's not suing for his sister's money, he's suing for the legal fees based on her lies about him while she was committing insurance fraud. She got that money from the late relative and was so greedy she implicated him in a crime to net herself more money.
How do we watch that
Type in the same title, but add part 2
Then add part 3 for the third part.
Oh boy!
She was shady and should have been arrested
People have a right to leave their money or material things to anyone they want to. Everyone should honor their last wishes. They money belonged to her to do as she wished.
Wills get challenged all the time.
This case isn’t even about the will. It’s about the cousin accusing him (falsely) of fraud.
Then maybe the cousin should have taken care of her 🙄 also, obv not worth helping anyone because she was ungrateful
When I had to put in a new sewer line.... I planted sunflowers over the disturbed soil... BEAUTIFUL. and full of Golden Orioles birds.
Why is it that when a family member passes, there is always someone who is greedy and money hungry Care more about getting a share of the money and not thinking or remembering the person who just passed. Where there is a will, there usually is a greedy relative
Everybody has a right to leave thier money and possessions to any one they want
EXACTLY. He's upset over money, not his beautiful sister (rip)
As an attorney, one thing that does irritate me about courts, even though this is tv court, is when people want to speak and btw have a constitutional right to speak and the judge does not let them because they see themselves as God. What judges forget is that they are paid by the people to work for the people, including plaintiffs and defendants.
It's a TV programme time limited. They're not going to waste vast amounts of money filming, then editing a TV show to allow everyone to get over every tiny little thing. It's been on tv long enough that everyone knows what they're getting into
@@helenvertannes691 Yeah I get that, I'm just saying most judges have a god complex when in real courtrooms and it's frustrating when citizens aren't provided opportunities to speak. I see it all the time.
Well SAID.
They really do. They act like they have some divine authority. Everyone in the courtroom should be treated as equals.
This isn't a legal US or state/city/county courtroom. If it was, none of them (Judy, or Mathis, or Brown or whoever) wouldn't be acting like this & would be heavily censured if they did. All these TV courts are actually binding arbitration. All the plaintiffs & defendants sign contracts agreeing to the arbitration, and the winners are actually paid by the show's producers out of a fund allocated for it (per Wikipedia's JJ entry). Whoever loses does not pay.
Look at how Judy acts in all her cases -- you said it yourself that JJ is acting against their constitutional rights, which she could not do if she was sitting in a true court of law; I think the producers also pay flight/hotel costs for the plaintiffs & defendants to bring them to the studio. This is just independent arbitration, staged for TV. While it is a legal decision per the contracts everyone signs agreeing to abide by them, it's not actual court like you would present a case in. Look up the wiki entries on JJ and other such shows; they're enlightening.
If he really loved his sister he would have shown that love to the cousin, who clearly meant a lot to his sister.
She lied and said he committed fraud so idk if I would’ve shown love to her either.
Vultures always circle after death. Sickening!
A bandanna in court? Where they do that at?
🤣🤣🤣🔥💯
You bout sound like me 😂
A “We can do it” ppster chick wanna be from ww2 lol
Just ghetto.
🤔 in the streets
The fact that he was suprised it wasn't given to him just goes to show he EXPECTED it to be given to him. He added he looked after her for months, so in that case he expects payment from someone he claims he loved dearly...BS!!!
While watching this I was worried that he is having a stroke because he was still so irritated.
If he keeps going with the anger thing then one day he just might have a stroke, for real and a big one too!
I don't think he's used to being challenged.
He has cause
He's not automatically entitled to anything especially if his sister didn't want him to
Families are complicated messes when ppl start dying.
The privilege and arrogance ☹️
Frustrating to care and not be repaid
I’m older and have seen a life time of various families greed for dying family member’s belongings. I worked 30 years in nursing). Families are often over rated(definitely rarely kind and loving).
This dude is upset because he thought he was going to get compensated for being a good brother and doing what he probably should have been doing anyway.
Watch all parts
I thought he was initially just a envious brother who wanted the money in this 1st part ... but hold on...part 2&3 show a big twist!
No one shows up to help care for a sick/disabled person...but everyone shows up for the reading of the will..smh
When doing anything for anyone you should never have expectations only if yourself and your actions.
I hate it when people say it’s nothing to do with money that’s total 💩💩it’s always about money.
My dad to my sisters and me: "put post-it notes on everything you want, and sell the house for as much as you can. It's being split 5 ways."
Us: "uh, sure. We're not gonna"
He gave me a notepad when I needed paper while visiting, and he put a post-it note with my name on it on the pad. I sent a pic to my sisters and told them he'd already given me my share! I got a "telling off" for taking my inheritance too early 🤣
I find it strange all the people against the man. I think he’s pissed more because of the insurance claim and the money she got for it on top of the money her cousin gave her. I’d be pissed too!
The fact the sister didn’t leave him anything, after taking care of her….
That’s some cold shit.
You care for a family member because you love them not for their money, same with parents don't care for them expecting for inheritance, they haven't lived a life and worked to give the money away they can do as they please. He's an angry man
They didn’t go to California for the sister they did it so when she would die they could say oh she owes us we get all the money
I was a carpenter/builder for more than 3 decades, owning my own small company for 8 yrs.
If his wife a "Contractor" as in builder and constantly moving around country, that screams one thing to me....bad reputation, NEEDED to keep moving around, scammers, poor quality, etc., etc., etc....
If he was helping just to get her money, his sister totally felt his vibe and did the right thing
So she let her brother help with him under the assumption that he would be getting something all the while knowing that she wasn't going to give him anything. Sounds like apples from the same tree (her and the brother).
@@MelancholicAwesomnes if that was the case, how would her feelings be communicated? He’s supposedly acting “altruistic”, is she supposed to stop him and say “hey by the way, thanks for showing up, but I’m not leaving you any money”? This sort of thing isn’t really contracted out in the end. Surprises in wills are common after someone passes. He shouldn’t have assumed he was entitled to anything.
@@l-train7876 End of life care is emotionally and physically taxing. If he wasn't there to do it then she would have had to have paid someone else to do it (out of pocket or with insurance). I cannot imagine the type of person that thinks it's okay to let someone be there caretaker as they near their death but feel like that same person shouldn't get anything afterwards. I'm not saying the brother is 100% on the up and up but the sister was no Saint.
I came into this video thinking "wow, a man who would move across the country to take care of his sister, that's amazing." JJ debunked that fantasy in less than 30 seconds lol.
I don't get what's going on. He's doing for what, exactly?
The sister had every right to leave her money to whomever she wanted.
The guy is just mad.
Boy bye. There is a reason she gave her money to her. Might not like it but it is what it is.
yeah...fraud by the cousin.
She xomitted fraud the get a higher insurance payout
@@biruss are you related to him?
@@Lenasevilla-yb4ei watch part 3
@@biruss I did and I still say the sister can leave whoever she wants her money
Imagine caring for your sister and nobody else does just for her to do that to u
Where there's a will, there's relatives! People are shameless when it comes to getting 'free' money.
The brother and his wife were SO after the money. How disrespectful of them to ignore the last will and testament of the deceased.
I'm irritated at how much these people interrupt. holy shit
No kidding! How many times do they have to be told to be quiet? JJ should've dismissed the whole thing after the lady with the bandana couldn't keep quiet the first time.
I think the best thing we can do in regards to family, and especially parents, is to expect nothing. That way, if we get nothing, we're not disappointed, and if we do, we can be happy with what we get.
He looks like Stu from The Hangover😂😂
I love Judge Judi personally , she is lovely too.
Him and his wife though they was getting all the money
She gave her money to whom she deemed most deserving. It's obvious as to why she chose who she chose.
She probably made the will long before he went to take care of her.
Judy Judy read him like a book 📖 🤓
It would turn out to be the last chapter twist in part 3
I’ve seen this with parents with many kids. Parents rarely leave their money and property to the sibling that cared for them. They leave it to the most incompetent of their children because they know that the others will be okay regardless but not their weakling. It’s always best to prepare for this beforehand.
The sister has the right to leave her property to anyone she likes. He’s got a nerve challenging the will.
He never challenged the will. He’s asking to be paid for attorneys fees he paid to deal with this con cousin. Maybe you should watch the entire episode before making comments.
Judy understands his frustration
It’s disgusting how entitled people are to someone’s things once you die.the bugs fight over the body and the family fights over the property and assets . Smh
My grandfather left all his estate to a charity because he’d fallen out with my uncle. He knew if he left my dad the estate then dad would give some of the inheritance to my uncle.
He also made dad a trustee. You can’t make it up.
If he wanted the control then he never should have gave it up, plus it’s her money her decision
He really can’t shut up even when the judge is talking.
My parents had everything in a trust divided equally between all 4 kids. My sister got stuck with being the executor. It was a pain, but we got through it.
She left her money to the person she chose to leave it to..who does he think he is?🙄
Who does he think he is? Her BROTHER.
Money brings out the Greed in people just as the Bible tells us it’s the root of all evil when people covet it instead of looking at it as a protection
Incorrect - the Bible teaches that the LOVE of money is the root of evil. Money itself is neither good nor bad, it's our feeling & actions about money that make it a good thing or not so much. It sure can piss folks off.
@@michelehofstetter4803 , You apparently didn’t read what I wrote correctly
The love of money is the root of all evil.
Saw this entire case when it aired. No matter what he goes on about, it was all about the fact that his sister left everything to the cousin. He went on and on ad nauseum about other things but it was obvious that’s what it was about.
You’re a liar lol
He sued for definmation cause the cousin lied about him stealing to get insurance money. He only sued for 800$ which was the lawyer fee he spent because she accused him.
@@haventimoney8726 You really think that’s what he was so mad about? I can’t blame him, but it was the sisters choice to leave her estate to who she wanted.
It is infuriating when JJ makes up her mind before the case even appears before her. That's what you get when you agree to a sham court.
By listening to the plaintiff, he is ANGRY the sister left her OWN $$$ to her cousin INSTEAD of him 😀😀😀
No one has ever spoke to him like that he has no idea what to do with his self
I'm planning on leaving everything with my sister.. She the only person I trust honestly 😂😂😂😂
Funny how a judge can make judgments without even listening.
That's Judge Judy with her God complex. Her education makes her the greatest person to walk this earth, in her mind.
They pretty much put the whole case in writing ahead of time that she reads. This is not the first time she is hearing their story.
Moody Judy
@@texan903 and what have you achieved.
@@bigjob7551 plenty, not that it's any business of yours. What have you achieved???
If it's not about the money, why are you in court suing for money again??
Never make assumptions about anyone else’s money.
It's clear the sister saw he only took care of her just to get the money, and she pulled a little sneaky sneaky on him lol.
"a little sneaky sneaky" 😂 You might be right. Hadn't thought of it that way. The sister knew EXACTLY what she was doing. As executor, now the brother knows exactly how much money she didn't leave to him. diabolical
Money can't buy love!!!
To all those trashing the brother, watch the entire thing! Plot twist!
People really just be yapping themselves into a loss.
He's giving off the "I was only there for her, to collect, in her time of need and end of life care. I deserve compensation for taking care of her." like your sister was dying. Be glad you had those moments with her before her passing. Money is always nice yes but death isn't about money and if you were only in it for that reason you are disgusting person.
His lawsuit is about the money he needed to clear his name when the cousin falsely accused him of fraud. He doesn’t want his sisters money.
My dad left all his money to his shack up live in honey. I didn't go suing his girlfriend for money. My dad earned it, it was his money. He could leave it to anyone he wanted.
Sad.
So sad. U should have sued her. Kids are entitled to what’s left.
