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 😂
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.
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".
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. 👍
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 .
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.
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.
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!
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.
These guys are professional roofers. They Looovvvee to do anybody's roof. Its their livelihood. Why would they NOT want to do her roof..?? It doesn't make sense. It is not easy to have a crew shows up and don't get to work. Its costs the roofer once, and costs him even more if it happens twice. On top of that...she goes on facebook and bashes the guy. This woman seem to think that her roof was the only thing these contractors have on their plate. She should have been made to pay him for time lost. Thats my judgement.
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.

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". 🤦🏽♀️
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
clearly you are not a homeowner...and hence you have never changed a roof. The entire old roof has to be torn off and put in a bin. You cant do that if a car is nearby.
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!! 😊
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.
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 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..."
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
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.
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!!!
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.
@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.
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.
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.
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
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 .
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.
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.
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
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.
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
... 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.
@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."
These guys are professional roofers. They Looovvvee to do anybody's roof. Its their livelihood. Why would they NOT want to do her roof..?? It doesn't make sense. It is not easy to have a crew shows up and don't get to work. Its costs the roofer once, and costs him even more if it happens twice. On top of that...she goes on facebook and bashes the guy.

Def gotta watch these types criminals, i was stupid too, i paid for my flooring in full like a dummy. they were in there doing the floor, scheduled to come back the next day to finish. my dumb azz paid, hahahah. i got friggin lucky, cuz after hounding him every day for two weeks, leaving messages, texts. etc. first he was responding back, then after a while he stops. lmao. so I sent text, guilting him, and told him i realized my job was small and he squeezed me in between his bigger money jobs, etc. etc and he sent his guys that day and they finished it out. i got lucky. not gonna lie. never ever doing that dumb shite again. lol. he got annoyed and sent text about how he knew he shouldn't have taken this small of a job. etc. etc. i stayed . quiet...... lmao, cuz i wanted his guys to stay and finish it. i thanked him for doing me a solid. etc. but whew.... i dodged a bullet.... and learned a valuable lesson. but oh i didn't know she wouldn't move her car. i had it paused. haven't reached the end of it yet. but he's def being slim shady, he needs to return her money. he's up to no good. and at end, his airhead domestic violence zombie wife needs to just stop. she's looking ridiculous. going on national tv, blaming a car for stealing this woman's money. insane. her employer should fire her dumb azz. smh. my dog ate my work, my wife was sick, i was sick, covid, a car was in driveway, the front door was too far to knock. my cell was acting up, so couldn't text her to move car. blah blah blah friggin thieves, so hard up, over 700? unreal. this is people stay away from small local businesses. ya'll be too thirsty....
The judge going OVERBOARD yelling at the litigants is not necessary, as these cases could be solved in a calm, rational manner! I also have a real problem that when she gets upset at somebody, she doesn't let them show the rest of their evidence! She already decided the verdict, which I think she sometimes does before the case even starts, which is wrong! HOWEVER, there are times that I do totally agree with her! The case where the mother of the boyfriend hid his girlfriend from her parents, while the parents and law enforcement were searching everywhere for her, and really scared!!! That was well deserved in that instance! I also have to say that I actually was happy that she gave it to the defendant! He was a loud mouth bully, who kept trying to talk over her! I think that finished it for him! However, I don't like that she did not let him show the rest of his evidence! All in all, a boring case that went off the rails!
What evidence are you talking about? She literally asked them if they had evidence that would prove their case and they said no. They had no texts. No proof of appointments. He's literally just grasping at straws because she ruled against him... "Yeah but...yeah but!" She's done this a long time. Way longer than you have watched and no offense but she knows what she is doing far better than you do. She gave him a chance to show evidence and he had none. Instead having his wife back him which meant nothing. How exactly is she deciding the case before it starts? You might not understand how this works or anything... but some cases atw obvious in advance which party bears the burden of proof. Since she is a professional, she knows this but it isn't deciding the case prior to the start. It's just understanding the situation and know which party will have the burden of proof. In this instance it's him. Because she knows ahead of time that Plaintiff states a contractor has kept her deposit without doing the work. She knows that he cannot do that. Not unless the Plaintiff breached their contract. So by default she needs the contractor (defendant) to provide evidence that the Plaintiff broke the contract in order to explain why he is justified to keep that money. Same as rent cases where a landlord keeps a deposit. She knows before the case begins that the landlord by default will have to provide proof that they were justified in keeping the deposit. That's how this works. If he had provided ANY type of proof (other than his own wife saying "well he TOLD me what happened " because that is not evidence in any sense of the word lol not only is it possible she is lying but he could come home from work and just make up any lie to tell her for why he didn't complete the job today) then at that point the JM would have needed the Plaintiff to explain this, provide proof that refutes it, etc. And in the start when she says "what happened" and they tell their story... If she cuts them off to ask a question it's actually done for a reason. Not because she's just "mean"... she cannot let them ramble on for 10 minutes while she just makes a long list of questions she has, then when they are done, ask them each question when it's very confusing, no longer clear what point of the story this new information needs to be added to etc. That is why she does this. If she needs the litigant to clarify something she needs them to do it now... when its actually relevant and will contribute to the story. This is done not only to help JM keep everything in the correct order and time frame, but also because this is a TV show... she needs the litigants to explain their stories in a way that is understandable to the audience as well. Otherwise we would not remember why she's asking the question, what it related to etc. As for yelling at people for cutting her off... she is running this.. she's in charge... she cannot just have litigant spewing out random crap when it's not their turn, irrelevant, or when she is speaking. Not only is it rude when they do this but she needs to control the flow. She is the one who decides the ruling in the case. And "Blasting him on Facebook " is not evidence nor is it relevant. Like of course she talked crap on FB lol he didn't do her roof.
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.
The judge continuously cuts them off after every question. She asks question after question, and then says to the litigants don’t cut me off… Which they shouldn’t, but she is horrible with that she continuously and constantly cuts off everybody! There’s even an episode where she says to her self that she needs to do better with that.… She’s not doing better.
She really only does that when they are telling her what happened and they are doing it poorly or leaving out important information. Which does make sense. It would be confusing for her to let them tell a story, write down every question she has while they talk and then ask them a complete list of questions that are now out of order and no longer in the same context as they would have been had she stopped them and asked the question when it was relevant. Litigants don't have that same reason. When they are yelling over her or interrupting her it isn't with a relevant or common sense purpose. It's because they want to keep adding information when their turn is done for the moment. She will go back to them they have to be patient. She is running the show here. She needs to control the flow. She can't just let litigants ramble on for an hour about completely random stuff that isn't related to the case.
To cut someone off and talk over them is the PERFECT way to tell them that in your eyes they are not important and you don't care about what they had to say. I couldn't deal with someone like that, talk over me once and you can talk to someone else. Incidentally, they made a movie about Judge Milian, they called it " Old Yeller ".
@Patrick Chubey Well it sounds like you're passive, and afraid of confrontation if you wouldnt be able to interject when someone is wasting time by rambling unintentionally.. This would not be a good job fit for you unfortunately. It actually has nothing to do with telling the person that they do not matter but I'm not sure you get it... they actually don't lol. You're misunderstanding this situation. She literally interrupts people because she HAS to for this job. She does NOT do this in daily conversations with people so you don't have to worry about "dealing with someone like that". That is the point. She is not some jerk who uust cuts people off constantly. She does it because it's the best way to accurately and correctly do her job. If she didn't do it then she would actually be extremely incompetent and give unfair and unjust rulings because she didn't get the correct information or ask the right questions. These litigants WANT her to do this. 1 they don't know exactly what info she needs so it's helpful that she directs them and 2 it will provide her with the info she needs in order to rule on the case properly.
This is laziness if there is a car on the drive way just know I the door and call the lady or get the older child if possible to move the car and what about weekend or the next day must it take a whole year . Hahahaha
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

Love it❤😅😅😅
Can you remind me of Rodney Dangerfield. No respect!!😂😂😂

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!

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.

She nailed him. If he showed up expecting to complete a roof he isn't just leaving with no effort
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.
The defendant’s wife’s hair!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The guy's clearly a liar, any doubt about that left when he had his wife testify.
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 😂
It's the case of "fiddling around on a roof job". 😂

8:20 Yea, don't talk over her in mid-sentence, you know what she does all the time!
A parked car prevented work? How flimsy is that.
clearly you are not a homeowner...and hence you have never changed a roof. The entire old roof has to be torn off and put in a bin. You cant do that if a car is nearby.
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!! 😊
I had my roof done, and we only had parking in the back- without a walkway- that’s bizarre
Typical repair person. Either a scammer or a substandard worker.
I love the wife’s testimony! Totally. Absolutely. Believable!
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.
If there’s a car in the drive way, there’s someone in the house. Knock and ask them to move the car!
Lmfao. Really simple
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.
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"😂😂😂
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?
Good call, judge.Guy was a real jerk
Amazing testimony by the defendant's wife 😂😂😂
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..."
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
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
This defendant is a creep.😮
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.
It takes less than 5 mins to move a car...lame excuse
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
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.
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.
Scam artist….
He , obviously, is a narcissist.
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!
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.
I'm so glad Judge Milian gave the Defendant hell to have respect by not talking over her.
The defendant had attitude right from the start. We all knew how it was going to go! lol
Rodney Dangerfield a look alike but this guy really gets no respect 😂
😁 He does bear a resemblance to Mr Dangerfield! 🤣
Under rated comment
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.
😂😂😂
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
He is full of excuses . Who goes to someone’s house at 7:30-8 at night to do a job ?
Omg his purple shirt is gaping open 😂
This clown gave her too low a price and decided he was not going to do it.
I want to scam the poor lady out of her $700 and used her son’s car as an excuse 😂😂😂
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 .
That guy is terrible. No one should EVER work with him EVER. His whole argument is just stupid.
He deserves something for his time.
If he didn't start the job on the first appointment, i would've got my deposit back.
57 seconds in I believe she is owed
That roofer is on roofies 😜
Is there a law preventing him from knocking on the door and say "can you move that car"?
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.
come on Rachel Rey move ur car lol
He got too much work, so hers was not important for him.
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.
Why didnt she tell her son to stop parking the car in the way😒 she is lying.
I called harr , this isn’t the west coast huh ?
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
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.
He got in over his head
Nobody could just go up to the door and tell her to move the car.
I love Judge Milian. ❤
and so what would be the basis for keeping the money? He didn't do any work
Why would you pay someone without having a set time to come and do something.....
Hes a shyster
The mal thing we learned from this is that... despite having a car, the son is always at home.
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
Please you could have texted her about the car! Text her back if she texting you that she at work test her back.
HE DO ALOT OF ROUND ABOUT TALKING
Why did this take from July to March? Unbelievable.
Why do they keep their purse on?
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."
These guys are professional roofers. They Looovvvee to do anybody's roof. Its their livelihood. Why would they NOT want to do her roof..?? It doesn't make sense. It is not easy to have a crew shows up and don't get to work. Its costs the roofer once, and costs him even more if it happens twice. On top of that...she goes on facebook and bashes the guy. This woman seem to think that her roof was the only thing these contractors have on their plate. She should have been made to pay him for time lost. Thats my judgement.
Lazy Contractor, Nothing but Excuses lol..
Yeah - con man roofer. He said she had to chase HIM when he has HER money! Shady.
I wish I knew how they are finding these videos. Parts are missing it's chopped off 😢
Ma boi look like Rodney Dangerfield 😂
Ikr I thought the same thing when I first seen him
Why is this roof guy not on the job site? My guy, My Guy..the boss shoild on the job.
Fix the damn roof!!!!!
NY accents are so grating. 😩
This guy seems shady to me. 🤨
Def gotta watch these types criminals, i was stupid too, i paid for my flooring in full like a dummy. they were in there doing the floor, scheduled to come back the next day to finish. my dumb azz paid, hahahah. i got friggin lucky, cuz after hounding him every day for two weeks, leaving messages, texts. etc. first he was responding back, then after a while he stops. lmao. so I sent text, guilting him, and told him i realized my job was small and he squeezed me in between his bigger money jobs, etc. etc and he sent his guys that day and they finished it out. i got lucky. not gonna lie. never ever doing that dumb shite again. lol. he got annoyed and sent text about how he knew he shouldn't have taken this small of a job. etc. etc. i stayed . quiet...... lmao, cuz i wanted his guys to stay and finish it. i thanked him for doing me a solid. etc. but whew.... i dodged a bullet.... and learned a valuable lesson. but oh i didn't know she wouldn't move her car. i had it paused. haven't reached the end of it yet. but he's def being slim shady, he needs to return her money. he's up to no good. and at end, his airhead domestic violence zombie wife needs to just stop. she's looking ridiculous. going on national tv, blaming a car for stealing this woman's money. insane. her employer should fire her dumb azz. smh. my dog ate my work, my wife was sick, i was sick, covid, a car was in driveway, the front door was too far to knock. my cell was acting up, so couldn't text her to move car. blah blah blah friggin thieves, so hard up, over 700? unreal. this is people stay away from small local businesses. ya'll be too thirsty....
Too bad seeing Rodney Dangerfield in court.
The judge going OVERBOARD yelling at the litigants is not necessary, as these cases could be solved in a calm, rational manner! I also have a real problem that when she gets upset at somebody, she doesn't let them show the rest of their evidence! She already decided the verdict, which I think she sometimes does before the case even starts, which is wrong!
HOWEVER, there are times that I do totally agree with her! The case where the mother of the boyfriend hid his girlfriend from her parents, while the parents and law enforcement were searching everywhere for her, and really scared!!! That was well deserved in that instance!
I also have to say that I actually was happy that she gave it to the defendant! He was a loud mouth bully, who kept trying to talk over her! I think that finished it for him! However, I don't like that she did not let him show the rest of his evidence!
All in all, a boring case that went off the rails!
What evidence are you talking about? She literally asked them if they had evidence that would prove their case and they said no. They had no texts. No proof of appointments. He's literally just grasping at straws because she ruled against him... "Yeah but...yeah but!" She's done this a long time. Way longer than you have watched and no offense but she knows what she is doing far better than you do. She gave him a chance to show evidence and he had none. Instead having his wife back him which meant nothing.
How exactly is she deciding the case before it starts? You might not understand how this works or anything... but some cases atw obvious in advance which party bears the burden of proof. Since she is a professional, she knows this but it isn't deciding the case prior to the start. It's just understanding the situation and know which party will have the burden of proof. In this instance it's him. Because she knows ahead of time that Plaintiff states a contractor has kept her deposit without doing the work. She knows that he cannot do that. Not unless the Plaintiff breached their contract. So by default she needs the contractor (defendant) to provide evidence that the Plaintiff broke the contract in order to explain why he is justified to keep that money.
Same as rent cases where a landlord keeps a deposit. She knows before the case begins that the landlord by default will have to provide proof that they were justified in keeping the deposit. That's how this works. If he had provided ANY type of proof (other than his own wife saying "well he TOLD me what happened " because that is not evidence in any sense of the word lol not only is it possible she is lying but he could come home from work and just make up any lie to tell her for why he didn't complete the job today) then at that point the JM would have needed the Plaintiff to explain this, provide proof that refutes it, etc.
And in the start when she says "what happened" and they tell their story...
If she cuts them off to ask a question it's actually done for a reason. Not because she's just "mean"... she cannot let them ramble on for 10 minutes while she just makes a long list of questions she has, then when they are done, ask them each question when it's very confusing, no longer clear what point of the story this new information needs to be added to etc. That is why she does this. If she needs the litigant to clarify something she needs them to do it now... when its actually relevant and will contribute to the story. This is done not only to help JM keep everything in the correct order and time frame, but also because this is a TV show... she needs the litigants to explain their stories in a way that is understandable to the audience as well. Otherwise we would not remember why she's asking the question, what it related to etc.
As for yelling at people for cutting her off... she is running this.. she's in charge... she cannot just have litigant spewing out random crap when it's not their turn, irrelevant, or when she is speaking. Not only is it rude when they do this but she needs to control the flow. She is the one who decides the ruling in the case.
And "Blasting him on Facebook " is not evidence nor is it relevant. Like of course she talked crap on FB lol he didn't do her roof.
Defendant should've just kept the time it took to measure the roof and avoided all of this.
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.
Defendant is a clown.
The judge continuously cuts them off after every question. She asks question after question, and then says to the litigants don’t cut me off… Which they shouldn’t, but she is horrible with that she continuously and constantly cuts off everybody! There’s even an episode where she says to her self that she needs to do better with that.… She’s not doing better.
I've noticed that.
She really only does that when they are telling her what happened and they are doing it poorly or leaving out important information. Which does make sense. It would be confusing for her to let them tell a story, write down every question she has while they talk and then ask them a complete list of questions that are now out of order and no longer in the same context as they would have been had she stopped them and asked the question when it was relevant. Litigants don't have that same reason. When they are yelling over her or interrupting her it isn't with a relevant or common sense purpose. It's because they want to keep adding information when their turn is done for the moment. She will go back to them they have to be patient. She is running the show here. She needs to control the flow. She can't just let litigants ramble on for an hour about completely random stuff that isn't related to the case.
Still ain’t doing better! Hard to watch…
To cut someone off and talk over them is the PERFECT way to tell them that in your eyes they are not important and you don't care about what they had to say. I couldn't deal with someone like that, talk over me once and you can talk to someone else. Incidentally, they made a movie about Judge Milian, they called it " Old Yeller ".
@Patrick Chubey Well it sounds like you're passive, and afraid of confrontation if you wouldnt be able to interject when someone is wasting time by rambling unintentionally.. This would not be a good job fit for you unfortunately.
It actually has nothing to do with telling the person that they do not matter but I'm not sure you get it... they actually don't lol. You're misunderstanding this situation. She literally interrupts people because she HAS to for this job. She does NOT do this in daily conversations with people so you don't have to worry about "dealing with someone like that".
That is the point. She is not some jerk who uust cuts people off constantly. She does it because it's the best way to accurately and correctly do her job. If she didn't do it then she would actually be extremely incompetent and give unfair and unjust rulings because she didn't get the correct information or ask the right questions. These litigants WANT her to do this. 1 they don't know exactly what info she needs so it's helpful that she directs them and 2 it will provide her with the info she needs in order to rule on the case properly.
This is laziness if there is a car on the drive way just know I the door and call the lady or get the older child if possible to move the car and what about weekend or the next day must it take a whole year . Hahahaha
