Running Off On A Roof

- The plaintiff says she hired the defendant to replace her roof. She claims the defendant ran off with her money and never fixed her roof, so she’s suing for a refund on her deposit and lost wages. The defendant argues he went to the plaintiff’s home several times to do the work, but she made it impossible for him.
Case #26059
#PeoplesCourt #RealityTV #Court
This defendant reminds me of some of these delivery companies who claim they "attempted" a delivery but never rang the doorbell or knocked.
Fed ex did this to me not to long ago. Here I am stalking them on the app to see where the truck is. I turn the beaters on for ten freaken minutes for a cake and I managed to miss them. I swear he ninjad his way onto my porch to leave that sticky 😂
Like fed ex? lol
They do that because some homes have been flagged for claiming they never received their package too many times. If a house or environment around it doesn’t look safe, they can refuse to deliver it and they put a note on your door. Another reason, customers don’t answer the door fast enough. The drivers don’t have all day to stand there and wait around for the customer to answer the door which is probs the main reason lol 😂 they have other packages to deliver. Oh and some packages require a signature.
@@P3rmissionD3ni3d Fed Ex is a bunch of douches. The pull this crap all the time. Also, a few years ago one of their delivery trucks t-boned my husband and I - totally their fault. They were HORRIBLE our car was totaled, they didn't comp us a rental or anything.. And then it took OVER 3 YEARS to finally settle, and they got off pretty easily at that. They have some sheisty crap like their drivers don't really work for them, they're all independent contractors so FedEx itself isn't liable for them. Un freaking believable. Sooo...yeah, they're definitely on my "Crap I could do without" list lol.
The defendant is a lousy con man!
he should have taken the 50 bucks for gas going there twice and then gave her back 650 when she offered it , but now he has to give her back the whole 700 plus court costs .
Hes a useless contractor ,slack as, Give her money back 🤡.
If there’s a car in the drive way, there’s someone in the house. Knock and ask them to move the car!
That's a little game he plays to collect deposits.
If the car wasn't there, if would have been because "the sun was hitting the roof at the wrong angle".
He’s so arrogant and he has the wife in check! A whole year?!! Really?!!
Really! Doesn’t this guy want to make some money??
"I'm a good guy, trust me" 🤣 you cant make this shit up!
So before she sued him he was trying to negotiate how much she owed him for his 'time', yet he had spent NO TIME doing anything, she offered him $50 and he turned her down, now he's realising that was better than the big fat zero he got in court ha ha ha.
I don't believe for a second he came by because he would have started unloading the equipment while waiting for her to come home to remove the car but since he was never even there, that's why he never phoned her to ask her to remove the car...
what does a car in the driveway have to do with anything. just knock on the door and ask them to move the car. but how is the wife and him are saying that he's back when he said he had other people doing the job. he said they called him and said a car is in the driveway, so where is the me coming home thing at
Outrageous! She should have never, ever parked in the driveway forever as long as there was a possibility that he could maybe possibly sort of show up sometime. It's completely normal to pay someone to do a big job and then not be around on a scheduled date. He clearly deserved to be paid to be an irrational jack*ss. 👍
🤣🤣🤣
Agreed! 😂
Nice satire
im a painter and i have had many cases where the people knew exactly when i was coming but they still had not moved any furniture or wall pictures out of the way when i arrived there to start painting . its part of the job to tell people to move their stuff out of the way .
Love it❤😅😅😅
I'm still not sure how the defendant thought he should keep the money. Lol. Lazy.
Maybe he has a banking problem or went too low on his bid, doesn’t make sense!
It's not like he even did any pre-job work ... doing up plans, hiring people, buying supplies, having to pay for re-stocking fees when it was canceled, like how some other cases claim! He literally did NOTHING to earn even the deposit!
Can you remind me of Rodney Dangerfield. No respect!!😂😂😂
And here I thought I was alone until I saw this comment! 😂😂
Haha! I thought that too. He's a better-looking version of Rodney D. He was so funny back in the day... he'd never make it today with all this crazy cancel culture.
When he says trust me, instantaneously know he's not trustworthy.
Haha yep exactly - same as when someone says "To be honest..."
Couldn't agree more. Good to know there are few who share my beliefs 😂
Correct me if I'm wrong but don't people who are working on your home knock and let you know they are there?? Even PG&E knocks and says we are working in your yard and its their damn equipment.
All he had to do was CALL HER or ASK HER TO MOVE THE CAR just like the judge said!!!
Or knock on the door cause one of her kids could have moved it
Nope. She has a spoilt son
He went to her house, talked to her kids, and told them to have their mom call him....she didn't call him. I think they're both to blame. She bashed him on FB and that's probably why he didn't give her the money back.
It's the case of "fiddling around on a roof job". 😂
A parked car prevented work? How flimsy is that.
She nailed him. If he showed up expecting to complete a roof he isn't just leaving with no effort
The guy's clearly a liar, any doubt about that left when he had his wife testify.
The defendant is full of excuses, excuses that lasted a whole year. Even if he did make a specific appt (which he can't really prove he made) all he or his crew needed to do was to get off their butts and go knock on the door to have the car moved. And he has some nerve at rejecting her offer letting him keep $50 for his time, but to return the rest of the money, considering he did nothing. Terrible way to treat his customer.
What I'm confused by is... had the car not been there .... is he saying he would have just started on her roof with the crew without ever knocking and telling her they are there? Lol that makes no sense.
I have been a repair technician for 15 years and I cannot count the number of times the owner’s son or daughter was supposed to let me in but never answered the door. No matter now many door bell rings or how hard I knocked they couldn’t hear me through the loud music or the headphones or the pillow.
It is completely believable his guys knocked and couldn’t get anyone. What is not believable is how unprofessional this guy is in the scheduling process and business practices and still be in business.
Not that I even belive the defendant, but there was a car in her driveway, how hard would it be to pull up behind the car, knock on the door and say “hey I’m here for the roof, can someone move the car so I can put the materials in the driveway” what a lousy excuse
Yeah, people are always paying contractors not to do work. This guy is full of crap. My contractor put the materials on my lawn.
yeah, but the judges point was that the plaintiff didn't have a "lawn" to put the materials. i can 100% understand the contractors not wanting to do the job if the car was there because they didn't want to work around it and didn't want to damage it.
Been a roofer for a few companies, you could have your roof replaced with snow already on your roof. There being a car wont matter you try and see if it can be moved but placing a few toe boards across the section and you hand clear it as you go. Even having to walk the materials too the roof by ladder is always do able. Bottom line this guy is nothing but excuses!! 😊

My kid usually doesn't answer the door, either, unless I specifically tell him beforehand that I'm expecting someone or something that needs a signature. Even then he still sometimes "forgets". 🤦🏽♀️
what a country??? what marvelous country does he come from??? Only in America can you get away with expecting to keep someone's money for nothing. Back to Sicily with you, my man...
I had my roof done, and we only had parking in the back- without a walkway- that’s bizarre
8:20 Yea, don't talk over her in mid-sentence, you know what she does all the time!
Never get roofers that are not licensed and never get the job done.
He got his money honey. He was done.
He breached their contract and she is entitled to get that money back. Which she just did so what is your point?
I love these macho BONEHEADS who think it’s a good idea to come into court telling the judge what she should be doing. This guy is so freakin annoying.
I love the wife’s testimony! Totally. Absolutely. Believable!
Amazing testimony by the defendant's wife 😂😂😂
The defendant’s wife’s hair!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The same way he claims he went and knocked on the door and the son & daughter was there he could've told them to tell their mother that the car needed to be moved for him to do the work 😒 a hustler
I was a production manager for a roofing and siding company. This is what happens when general contractors use subcontractors. The subcontractors could care less about customer service as long as they get more work. Before I got there, there was a load of these types of miscommunications. I threatened the crews that I will stop giving them jobs before the one they have is done and confirmed. I threatened the material company that we will go elsewhere if they do not give me a delivery window so that I can communicate with the customers. It's not rocket science. I just asked myself, "what would I want as a customer..."
he should have taken the 50 bucks for gas going there twice and then gave her back 650 when she offered it , but now he has to give her back the whole 700 plus court costs .
If the car was the issue when he showed up, why didn't he just call her and say he is there and need someone to move the car
Weather does not have a huge bearing on roofing, people think it sets better in Warmer temps but thats not really proven.
What ! Have you ever been on a wet roof? A roof also protects rain from coming inside of home. I’ve never meet a roofer who works when it’s raining or going to rain, maybe a flat commercial tar and paper roof done for quick leak repair and a steep roof residential temporary repair , but in general roofers work when weather is clear.
@Bill Moran I'm not speaking about rain, I should have been more clear instead of just saying weather, I'm speaking about weather as far as Temperature. My husband is a contractor, done alot of roofs, he definitely doesn't work in rain on a roof. I mean that a lot of homeowners want to do roofs in summer because they think it seals shingles better than in fall or spring. I understand wet roof is dangerous and also laying shingles in rain is bad because mold/mildew can build up. I understand any moisture at all can have negative effects. If u have wet felt paper after rain, cover it with shingles while really wet it will mold mildew which will move to wood. I am speaking on weather, heat/temp, in NC.
Yep, they did my roof in February in the snow. Came out just fine.
@TraBaum Exactly. My husband hated doing roofs in July in NC he did them but everyone Always wanted new roofs from around May to August/September in HOTEST time in NC.
That guy is terrible. No one should EVER work with him EVER. His whole argument is just stupid.
This defendant is a creep.😮
Scam artist….
He , obviously, is a narcissist.
Doug: Pretty sure you could have worked it out...
Err, she tried. The dude was eluding her and most likely lying about the details. Absolutely no way you would not knock or call, or do both, then leave a voicemail, text AND a note on the door to prove you were, indeed, actually there!!!
I LOVE when she checks ppl for talking over her EVERY TIME. B/c ppl have a huge habitat of doing that and it’s so fvcking rude & disrespectful
Lady already had $700 invested to get her roof done. If the contractor gave her a date and told her she needed the car out of the driveway, she would've had the car moved.
On the flipside, a contractor wanting to make money isn't going to set aside an entire day to do a roof, then send his crew home when the customer has a car in the driveway. The contractor would be calling the customer. Not only would the contractor be losing out on the rest of the money for the completed job, but they'd be losing out on money from another job they could be doing that day, plus wages for the employees that went there to do the roof.
Guy is a joke.
My very first time with a contractor, a guy who did stucco said he could have my house done in a week. 3 god dam months later I'm calling him on the phone to find out where the hell he is and why he's not doing my house. I've since learned about the ' time is of the essence ' contract clause and those guys will never bloody well do that to me again. Once is too much.
Rodney Dangerfield a look alike but this guy really gets no respect 😂
😁 He does bear a resemblance to Mr Dangerfield! 🤣
Under rated comment
The defendant’s excuse for not roofing was ridiculous! My ex was a roofer, and they didn’t let anything get in the way of getting the job done. Something so simple as knocking on a door to get someone to move a car is not a viable excuse!
It's always funny when a guy loses a case. There's always this moment when they lose where there's a pause and you just know they're calling her a bitch in their heads.
😂😂😂
A friend? He's a scammer. He wanted to make any excuse not to have to do her roof. "My time is worth more than $50"😂😂😂
Typical repair person. Either a scammer or a substandard worker.
If he didn't start the job on the first appointment, i would've got my deposit back.
He got too much work, so hers was not important for him.
The defendant is started with the wrong foot with the judge, I can tell you he's going to lose because he has an attitude and you don't do that in front of the judge
I'm so glad Judge Milian gave the Defendant hell to have respect by not talking over her.
I want to scam the poor lady out of her $700 and used her son’s car as an excuse 😂😂😂
11:01 The defendant continually talks over the judge! Can you imagine living with him? 😬 That’s something I have zero tolerance for that rudeness.
Nobody could just go up to the door and tell her to move the car.
Why didnt she tell her son to stop parking the car in the way😒 she is lying.
When the defendant supposedly knocked on her door at 7:30pm, and the son and daughter answered, instead of just saying have your mom call me. Why didn't he say, keep your car out of the driveway this week. So I can do the roof...I don't believe anything he said.
Good call, judge.Guy was a real jerk
57 seconds in I believe she is owed
The defendant had attitude right from the start. We all knew how it was going to go! lol
He deserves something for his time.
Hes a shyster
Omg his purple shirt is gaping open 😂
It takes less than 5 mins to move a car...lame excuse
Is there a law preventing him from knocking on the door and say "can you move that car"?
Why would you pay someone without having a set time to come and do something.....
Imagine showing up one time, a car is there and simply leaving without making an appt.
Then say "aaah I'll try again in a month"
Randomly shows up "omg a car in the driveway, I'm done, keeping her money"
Unreal
HE DO ALOT OF ROUND ABOUT TALKING
Here’s the problem with even the judges responses. He has to prove that he let her know her cars were in the driveway when he tried to complete the roof. A person has a right to park their cars in their driveway when they don’t know when a person performing services on their homes are coming to perform said services. To lecture the women on her “cars” being in the front yard is ridiculous when he didn’t prove he told her they were coming that day or even showed up. The biggest problem is, he could have sent her a text message to schedule a time and make sure the cars, if they were really in the driveway, are moved. The guy is lying like most contractors because he didn’t have the time to complete the roof due to over booking.
The mal thing we learned from this is that... despite having a car, the son is always at home.
and so what would be the basis for keeping the money? He didn't do any work
Lazy Contractor, Nothing but Excuses lol..
Please you could have texted her about the car! Text her back if she texting you that she at work test her back.
This clown gave her too low a price and decided he was not going to do it.
Why is this roof guy not on the job site? My guy, My Guy..the boss shoild on the job.
I called harr , this isn’t the west coast huh ?
Why did this take from July to March? Unbelievable.
come on Rachel Rey move ur car lol
He got in over his head
That roofer is on roofies 😜
I wish I knew how they are finding these videos. Parts are missing it's chopped off 😢
Too bad seeing Rodney Dangerfield in court.
Never have I seen a judge scream at a layperson litigant because they want to show evidence. Fair enough if he is rude, belligerent or uncooperative but not because he is trying to prove his point.
I would rather go to a proper court win or lose.
I bet her 'retirement' as judge was so swift because of that exact attitude flaw. He husband was a very successful judge who presided over major cases and his demeanour is very different
I say the same and she's a former prosecutor and actual circuit court judge. 🤯
All she does is scream there's not one episode that I've seen where she was civilized lol 😅
... what do you mean "because he wanted to show evidence"? When did she scream at him for asking to show evidence? The only time she screamed at him was when he was yelling over her which is extremely rude. It was very clear that she was only yelled at him because he talked over her.. not because of "wanting to show evidence" she literally tells him as she's screaming why she is screaming and that he cannot yell over her.
Soo...? I'm just not sure how it confused you so much when she said the reason in the episode... and it wasn't that.
@@MalloriaAnn The comment is clear and self explanatory. I am not interested in arguing with a child sorry.
@StevO lol you resort to calling others names after refusing to accept that your opinion is not the only one and not entirely correct either..... 😅 I hate to tell you this... but you're the child. Adults are mature enough to admit when they are wrong, have the self restraint to not insult people or call them names, openly welcome opposing view points, and are capable of engaging in civil discussions without their egos being bruised to the point that they bury their heads in the sand in an effort to block out anything that might cause them to learn or grow. Have fun in your echo chamber though lol
So let me get this straight him and his associate goes to the house, rings the doorbell knock on the door whatever the case may be. See the son, daughter and the alleged son's car that's in the way and instead telling the son, "hey if you can give your mom this message and if you can do me a favor. I'm coming on this day at this time could you move your car out the driveway so we can put the roofing material in the driveway."
Decades ago we were working on a Paving crew. There was a lady that didn't want to move her car we told her no worries we'll just slip the payment under your car To this day don't know if she got the sarcasm or not. Same thing here-all she had to do was negotiate a week the roofer guy would be available "the car will be out of the driveway all this week", come when you get the materials together.
Here's an idea. Tell the son to NOT PARK in the driveway for the next ( time? } Or set up a method for contact which the son is involved in. He cannot have been sleeping every time. Very inefficient all round. Maybe she didn't have the money.
I think 1 guy didn't want to do that work...
This contractor didn't want to do when you worked.He was a lazy sack of hitting the tallion.You can tell cause he did the mafongool
How dare she allow her son to park in her driveway during the year that defendant might decide to show up one day!! Seriously though, defendant is incredibly rude and obnoxious. He had a lot of nerve refusing to return her money when he didn't do a whit of work for a YEAR. Here's a tip: KNOCK ON THE DOOR IF THERE'S A CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY. Bunch of lazyass bums.
I CANNOT STAND THIS JUDGE 😢 NO WONDER SHOW GOT CANCELLED. SHE THINKS SHE'S JUDGE JUDY😮😢😢
first off !!!! not a ticketed journeyman roofer !!!!!!!!!!!
he is a handyman!!!!!!!!! roofers dont do fences, basements, garages !!!!!!!!!!!!
im soo sick of these wannabe roofers!!!!!!!!!
It’s her sons car. Give roofer sons or house phone number. The communication with every single party was super lame. Roofer depending on teenagers to deliver messages is silly.
Sons in shower etc Wait 20min start knocking on door again.
Calling her at work is ridiculous especially “hey call me back”
Fix the damn roof!!!!!
Why do they keep their purse on?
I guess.
The question is give her money back all of it you did nothing
He wanted to come when it was convenient for him and pop up lol the damn car has wheels it can b moved
This guy seems shady to me. 🤨
Purple shirt is a complete con, so full of it, pure hustler.
Some Country? Dude,if ya don't like it here,L E A V E !!!
