- The plaintiff says she hired the defendant to do some bathroom renovations, but he kept making excuses about licenses and didn’t complete the work. She’s suing to get her deposit balance back. The defendant claims the plaintiff is to blame because she never got the correct renovation approvals from her landlord. He’s countersuing for lost wages.
Case 29-164 - Zábava
Everything coming out of defendant mouth makes no sense.
Also never hired anyone with only one review.
I agree with the second one but the first one makes sense in an odd way.
His silliness is a common thing of workers (especially journeymen) who follow their dream of branching off on their own focused only on their abilities. They often get hit with the tidal wave of business management and drown as they grasp at straws of information, leading to more problems than they know what to do with.
@@Maninawig I just feel like his excuse to defend himself just isn't supporting him at all.
@@arinalis3130 absolutely! I 100% agree. But I am adding the tidbit that this is a common result when a journeyman with no business management skills decides to start their own business.
All skills in the work, but they drown in stupidity when it comes to management and additional expenses they cheap out on. (hence why there is a degree for thosr skills)
@@Maninawig Yes I was getting quotes for a fence and was having trouble finding someone available soon as another contractor led us on for months then backed out at last minute. One told me about a guy who had branched out on his own and was available. I got a quote hand written on foolscap paper like kids use at school and he took photos to send to me.The quote was nearly twice the price of others. I knew immediately why he was available when the others weren't. He had no idea about professionalism and thought he could charge what he wanted. If he couldn't give me a quote in a professional way, I could imagine how the fence would end up.
The announcer guy is gunning for that Emmy nomination.
He has had many years of job security.
@@TMKelly1955 he has many year on the job.
Time to get another announcer...or get him some edibles.
Kurt is awesome!
I wonder if you could rent him for weddings or graduations?
Yeah, I'd hire that silly little twerp. "Show me the design you made for her." "Ah...I....duhhh..."
She has that "I want to speak to your manager" look. The more she kept talking over judge just reinforces that statement.
True. She is inexperienced working with contractors and tradesmen, not realizing that she is talking to an employee manager.
@@Maninawig she was talking to a complete idiot.
Thanks for the KAREN ALERT!! I'll be on the lookout 👀👀 Lol 😂🤣
It’s called the karen look lol
😂
Harvey: "Do [insert profession here] take advantage of women?"
Cut that segment from the show; it's so asinine 🙄
Yes Please!!
With his old messy tmz az...lol. This is court...be a lawyer now please...
Yup! I don’t care people on the street, they are wrong and dumb
I wish the judge would let people speak or at least finish their sentence.
She's trying to act like Judge Judy
She's more irritating than Judge Judy for me. It's like she's tryna prove something. Wow you ARE the judge, what more do you need?
Absolutely, totally agree with you. I wish she would allow the litigants to speak and stop yelling at them. She asks a question, then answers for them and when they're able to respond, she yells at them because their responses don't correspond to her liking. Judge Milian is so arrogant, she needs to be humbled.
Jenn Ross I completely agree with you. She’s just always yelling and it’s so unwarranted. She needs to allow them to talk especially the defendants, they are there to defend themselves, let them do that
Agree! But she already analyze the statements and solve the problem and make the verdict. She is just elaborating on her decision.
Never ever trust a grown man with a 3rd grade haircut.
Back in grade school there were still a couple of families who were so poor they gave their kids " Bowl " haircuts, but then most people grow up and get a job and pay a barber to give them a grown up haircut. I don't get why an adult would humiliate themselves like that if they didn't have to.
@@patrickchubey3127 I don't know man, the Amish have some jacked up haircuts but their furniture is on point.
@@Lady.B0420 Agreed, their furniture is solid, great, and MADE IN AMERICA. I'd buy it for that reason alone.
@Robin D. I bought a chinese made television. It lasted two lousy years. Never again.
Why are you so cruel?
Did anyone notice the lady wearing black and white behind the plaintiff? Wth? Her eye makeup makes her look weird.
Yes ! I had to look about 10 times! I thought I was trippin. What the hell is that?
@@nae80West I think is the color of her eye shadow lol
I was looking for this comment because I thought it was just me seeing things lol
I noticed her too and she’s in like 4 of these episodes. I thought she had her eyes freakishly wide open!
And the lady behind the defendant looks like she got something in her eyes.
To the plaintiff: Stop playing with your hair!
@Jamilla Robinson i don't care who's paying her bills! All of that fussing with her hair is distracting, and annoying
It's her hair. Who are you to tell her what she can do with her hair. That's fucking weird.
Don’t get your undies in a knot jamila and Michael. Sharon is only saying. And it’s weird of you Michael to be so vulgar
Stop talking over the judge!
@@sharonshulby2445, you are weird!
Judge Milian, when you bark at a litigant, ”Stop talking over me!” and the litigant has not been permitted to say THREE WORDS since you sat down, you lose all credibility with me. The poor plantiff! You berated her, and she wasn’t even at fault (as you rightly found in the end).
she has said in other episodes that she has a bad habit of cutting people off when she's finished listening. lol i guess we all have our flaws.
@@Rats1991 indeed. This would not usually bother me, except this was a senior,and she looked deflated every time she couldn’t get a word in edgewise. I didn’t see a Karen in this woman.
I agree. Judge Millian is so quick to Interrupt and bark at people. Happy the Plaintiff still won. Judge was so rude to her.
@@Rats1991 There is a time limit, Judge Judy asks specific questions and won't let them go off on a tangent. Same scenario. She needs certain info, it is a waste of her time if they keep rambling. but regardless of that, it is rude to speak over someone speaking especially a Judge
Why did the plaintiff need to keep trying to interject comments when the Judge got it and was already on her side? She did that at least 3 times before the Judge told her to stop. Sometimes you just need to shut up and let things unfold. Especially when it’s clear, and it was clear, things are going your way. And I’m sure the Judge will spend night after night, tossing and turning over losing credibility with you. Are you that important? Sheesh, get over yourself!
The defendant escaped from amishville 🤣Dumb and dumber for sure. I wouldn’t trust him just from the haircut alone. 😂
I actually took one look at him and knew he would lose
Amish are known for amazing craftsmanship.
What if you wanted to put up a barn?
@@leetakamiya exactly!
OMG I came here to say exactly the same thing about the “dumb and dumber” haircut 😂 One look at him and I knew he was toast…
Defendant's friend never shut up. Judy would have tore into him. 😜😜😜
Why does the announcer sound like he's watching a horror picture with that scary voice.
@alita wibert thanks for that reply. It does give me quite a bit of comic relief. Its creepy and funny at the same time. Ha.
Half of these comments are criticizing the judge for interrupting. Remember that this is not an actual courtroom. It is a daytime television show meant to entertain.
Haha I swear I didn't know that.
But she still has bad communication skills
@@gracewaithira7000 😆 I mean it’s a show - it’s called creating an atmosphere - in this case it creates tension or a sense of urgency which moves the case forward.
If I've learned anything from binge watching hundreds of these episodes on YT, it's that Harvey Levin and his three or four questions are surplus to requirements. He brings absolutely zero to this show.
Henry talking to the ppl outside is my least enjoyed part.. the ppl never have anything interesting to say and don’t even know what they’re taking about half the time. Harvey over compensates for them and it’s just so cringe.
Harvey gets on my Fkn nerves!!! Yes, some women are taken advantage of due to sheer ignorance. However, men also get taken advantage of just as much by online hustlers, so smoke on that, Harvey. I feel like he thinks he’s Father Superior or some $hit.
Harvey's intro voice hurts my soul
And before he accepted any work my stepdad made sure it was licensed and bonded
She played with her hair repeatedly..lol
This guy looks like a young happy merchant mean.
From experience as a contractor. This construction industry is ravenous. A good salesman who don't know the difference of a hammer from a nail can get a contract for $10,000.00 that I cant get for $5,000.00.
"Do contractors take advantage of women?" @ 4:17.
Yes. I'm a woman. I've been doing my own home repairs and improvements for many years, like replacing drywall, interior & exterior painting, refinishing ceilings, removing & installing new light fixtures, installing flooring, removing old toilets and faucets and installing new ones, building shelving, etc.....but some things I can't do by myself, like replacing an exterior door. I don't have the upper body strength to lift that thing (I'm not very big), and I don't own a truck that I can use to transport it from store to house.
Contractors I've spoken to treat me like I'm stupid. Like I don't know that the door I purchase has to fit. Like I don't know the cost of materials or the labor involved.
I also would like new flooring in part of my house, and I've researched it extensively. I've done flooring myself in the past. I have internet access, and I'm not an idiot. But they treat me like one. They double the price of the flooring (like I can't look up how much it costs), they explain patiently (like I'm a child) that they will charge for labor (duh), they tell me that I must purchase the flooring (duh). I'm so tired of contractors treating me like an idiot and trying to over-charge me for materials that although I've got the money to pay someone & I'd rather not do it myself because it's going to kill my knees, I'm going to just do it myself anyway.
That goes for mechanics as well.
I so agree with you. And Its worse here in India...and there is no such thing as people's court. One is forced to be on one's feet supervising ANY job...or else they will cheat & be more than shoddy in the work.
Can't leave your scooter or car in a garage...they may steal parts, replacing them with duplicates or spurious parts, then find 'problems' where there are none...in order to run up a huge bill...!
Once trying to get an iron gate made and installed...two men quoted exhorbitant costs...when I asked "what guage for the thickness?" they were stumped. I found a third one that made a simple gate I needed for half the cost, and repaired a panel on another small gate in that included cost.
One scooter mechanic dramatically stated "the rectifier needs to be changed, " when the good new scooter was barely 2 months old. I did not agree and found another one after a mighty search.. and all he did was clean the petrol filters( which was the only thing that was really needed) and of course I stood over him like a hawk while he was doing it...& thereafter I got the overhauling done only by him...always being present...for 14 long years!! Lot of time and energy in much anxiety has to be expended in getting any repairs done in India.I did many plumbing jobs I could do on my own. I learnt to go buy materials from shops myself so the carpenter or plumber or painter did not cheat!
Its awful .... one has to drop all of 'one's ' own work just to supervise 'their' work. Just because you're a woman. They take even more advantage of any elderly woman who's widowed or with disability - any single woman in particular. In the material shops they look at you as if you're from another planet...since few women go buy hardware themselves. I once went to buy a 'cotton' rope and the guy went on and on about how a nylon rope is better etc. without knowing I knew exactly WHY I wanted a cotton rope!!
Yes it's a shame that there are dishonest contractors out there that take advantage of people. But honestly I don't think it has anything to do with person's sex. I've met plenty of guys that ware taken advantage of as well, just because they are like a lawyer or computer programmer or something like that and don't really understand construction. I'm a contractor myself and I have had other "contractors" try to bullshit me (Like adding 15% mark up to materials & charging 3 hours to go get them at the same time, is a real common scam). This goes both ways though, when I was younger and just starting out in this business I've had few people take advantage of me as well, both men and women. Scope Creep is a very common scam, where a property owner hires someone to let's say paint a room for $100, while the person is there the owner asks just to do few more "small" jobs for them, but once these additional jobs are performed the property owner refuses to pay more than the original $100 arguing "that's what we agreed on". I've had that scam ran on me a few times.
They do it to men too. Probably more so to women though.
@@FenderBender5150 holy cow ,,,i didn't realize there was a name for it. I've had that happen a couple of times, and by men and woman. One guy even contractor napped me. And would take me home until he was happy. It was under the guise as take me out to have a look at a job ,which was out of town and an hour drive . We did have a history before that in high school, but i hadn't seen him for over 20 years in between. Wow that guy was nuts ...
Yes there all all sorts of scammers out there that try to take advantage of anyone they feel they can. I've also been scammed by other so called contractors. Ive worked for guys that tell me its the customer that stiffed us all, and turns out it was the head contractor. 😞
Golden rule of courtroom programs like this is, as a litigant you _DO NOT_ approach (or move toward) the bench with evidence; instead you hand it to the bailiff. Defendant with the 2nd grader haircut nearly failed at least once ( 3:35 ).
The question becomes did the customer notify the contractor of the declined license? If not then customer is liable. There was no argument that the license could be declined. She failed at that point to properly go through the flow of red-tape. She signed anyway.
Why does everyone in the comments keep calling the defendants haircut a kids cut? That’s called a taper or a fade. It’s his face and the size of his giant head that makes him look like a kid. The haircut has nothing to do with it. 😂
Joseph is kinda cute. That smile! 😍
Small business owners should take the time to attend business courses.
Dude looks like Lloyd Christmas from Dumb and Dumber😁🤣
Why would you even give a deposit like that without the proper licensing first.
That lady behind the plaintiff are eyes big as hell 😂 she has on black and white. Her high beams are on I know the judge seen it.
Declined the refund? Okay Karen..I mean Judy 😒
Did you not hear the judge? He never offered a refund, he wrote up a bunch of nonsense instead of just giving her back her money.
I thought Judy had some yams and then she turned sideways 😂😂😂😂
Why'd you think she had yams? She's wahayate.
When she bangs that gavel. DAY-UMMMMM 😍😍
Please stop suing for lost wages 😂 you ain’t getting it!
I hate Levin SO much, whenever it's a male vs female in any "contract" situation he only asks 1 question. "Do insert job trade here take advantage of women?" Is that the only question an actual lawyer can come up with? Not surprised he runs a rag for a TV show, just as bad as the Enquirer.
I think it is more about the customer not being confident and understanding what exactly they want done. A lot of mechanics will even rip off males if they think he knows nothing about cars.
Never trust a fence jumper
The defendant was trying to hustle the plaintiff. Good to see that Milian caught that bullshit.
A Class A Conman who tried to play people for money. He should be in jail
Plaintiff looks related to Mary Steenburgen.
He was referred by a resident in the building?? Weirdo and the referring "resident" probably split the $$$!!
Judge Milian, as much as I like you, you need to stop yelling at the Plaintiffs and Defendants, If you ask a question, please allow the litigants to answer and please stop answering for them and then yelling at them for answering. It's as if their answers are not corresponding to your liking. Get over yourself Judge.
👏🏽👏🏽 exactly
Why does she keep grabbing her hair 😂😂😂😭 i think shes nervous.
her shirt is lit tho
I wouldn't trust him to do ANYTHING! incompetent? & stupid are putting it mildly!
I don't think he is incompetent, just inexperienced in business management. What he has shown in court, with his organization of actually having a contract although misworded, fumbling to explain his understanding, and consulting a lawyer without retaining one is a common sign of a hard worker who is trying to branch off on their own.
Though I believe tradesmen should definitely strive for the excellence that you'd stake your name on your work, this is what results when that ambition is not met with the study or budget of what it takes to assume the management side they have yet to experience.
Sadly, between the lack of knowledge in startup companies and the legal misunderstandings in circulation (most of which get slapped in court as his contract did), more companies fail before they get up on their feet.
Sadder yet is that sharing such a desire with your employer before you leave can open up the doors to go from employee to subcontractor in order to gain that missing education.
@@Maninawig he should not be working for himself. He doesn’r have what it takes. Period. Get an education and retrain.
@@VideoKilledMyZZZ I absolutely agree. but trusting someone to run a business and trusting someone to do the labour are two different things (sadly many don't get it)...
Also, I don't believe he was trained in business management to begin with, just his journeyman ticket in his field.
Looks like Lamar Odom on left side in audience near doorway......🏀
😂😂😂
Contractor so I do it myself. Lol
The defendant must be a fan of Lloyd Christmas, from Dumb and Dumber, hehehe!!!
She had to have an answer by Feb 14th.
That didnt happen.
Until late
omg this is the 3rd episode that JM keep cutting people off... she talks for both parties. Does she listen for longer then a second. ugh ... shhhhh JM 🥴
Sounds more like youth and inexperience by the defendant. Hopefully he’ll learn from it
Harvey has some good information
I don't like either of them. He seems dishonest and dumb and you can tell she's a nightmare to work with by her Karen holier than thou attitude.
There was a small kitchen fire in April 2018. The contractor said it would take 3 to 4 months. At the most. Because it was just the stove , the cabinet & a small square in ceiling. IT TOOK THEM A LITTLE UNDER 3 YEARS TO GET WORK & PAYMENTS COMPLETE. They had all my house packed up & moved out within 1 week. Then NOTHING for 10 months. And AFTER MY INSURANCE ENDING PAYING MORE THAN WHAT I PAID FOR THE HOUSE. THEY SPENT OVER 200,000$. THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY WE WERE USING ENDED UP GUTTING MOST OF THE HOUSE. TO THIS DAY THERE IS STILL SO MUCH THAT HAS TO BE FIX/FINISHED. THE KITCHEN CABINETS ARE THE WRONG SIZE & WRONG SETUP, KITCHEN WALL WAS NEVER SEALED BEHIND CABINETS & STOVE. SO THERE IS AN INCH OF OPEN SPACE. THEY RIPPED OUT MY HALLWAY CLOSET TILE TO TRY & FIX BUT YOU CAN STILL SEE IT. BOTH BATHROOM PAINT JOB SUCKS. PAINT ROLLING DOWN IT. THEY THREW AWAY MY CLOSET DOOR RAILS, PAINT IS PEELING IN THE BATHROOMS, I COULD GO ON FOR DAYS. I MIGHT BE SLOW BUT I'M FIXING ALL THE ISSUES. This was the worst. My son & he dad were at a motel & I was in a tent in the back yard with my dogs. It was hell for us
So are you going to court?
@@1984nique no what i did was sent the CEO an email that showed I had pictures done daily all date & time stamp. I took pics everyday. Work or no work done. I had video's of his staff & all the crap they said & did. To top it off I had every Single text, email his crew EVER sent. To include all the times they lied. With in 3 days they settled with us. I now know never go through a fire management group. You do the work, they get the pay.
Defendant is a little punk. Hehehe
"Does Harvey take advantage of women? "
What's up with the defendant's bangs? He looks like one of those Romans in a gladiator movie (NOT a gladiator though).
lol
He's inexperienced and she's a Karen. Period
"got back': uhhhggg terrible grammar, even by the judge........ Responded, Replied, ..... hello
0:42 Not trying to be mean, but these guys look like shady contractors!
But didn't he do work there before this for another person
he looks like an eminem fan
I'm getting really sick of the sexist Harvey questions. So many episodes:
"Do you think auto mechanics take advantage of women?"
"Do contractors take advantage of women?"
"Do you think salesmen see women as a target?"
Come on, bro. This is 1950s level thinking.
It may be “50’s level thinking” but it still happens today.

POSSIBLY messed up- 50/50 call- My thoughts are Judge Judy would NOT have given the plaintiff her money back if the defendant spoke the truth that he told her there was a possibility he couldn't do the work.
Judge Judy: "You pay for cheap, you pay for what you get. If he told you there was a possibility he couldn't do it, you shouldn't have chosen him."
Judge Judy, from what I've watched of her, tells me this is all the plaintiff's vault.
you stupid

The plaintive should’ve done her research she should’ve never hired this guy that’s a mistake number one mistake number two is the defendant didn’t know what the hell he was doing so it’s a 50-50 fault I would have split it in half
Ya know... I’ve seen a lot of these and it seems to me men are not the best at coming up with valid arguments with solid evidence. It’s so cringey to watch. They probably should’ve had a women look over their paperwork before going to court in national television. Would’ve saved them a lot of embarrassment. In my opinion.

Right!!! 🥰😂😋
The defendant is a con artist.
Not a con artist but a pup in over his head.
What he said had the confidence in his labour abilities but lacked the understanding behind the management needed to run a company. It is common to see when a labourer acts in the thought "I have been a darn good journeyman and I don't think my boss should get a portion of my wage. I know I am good enough to start my own business."
This often happens without understanding to manage said business, though his acceptance of the verdict also shows that he is willing to learn to do things right, just lacks the proper guidance.
Wow. I've seen several cases where the defendant claimed they offered all the money back and the plaintiff wouldn't take it. This is actually the first time it was true. In other words there was no reason for this to come to court. She's got some issues.

Why? The reason it was delayed cause the defendant didn't send the right stuff to be submitted!
@@AnneOhn123 which they would've discovered if the paperwork had been submitted sooner.
The plaintiff is lucky the contractor gave her the $1900 back. Most would have kept it, delaying the work that they would do, or steal it all. This contractor only kept part of it not all.
For everyone - be careful with contractors. Talk to family and friends and they’ll tell you.
