This contractor is a clown. After listening to his excuses and lies I'm surprised he didn't claim the fence was installed and that it was an invisible fence. I'm glad the Judge dressed him down I would have liked to see a hallway interview.
can we appreciate how they plaintiff and her witness have such a calm relationship after dating and it not working out? love the joke he made about her having to have patience to date him 🥰
For a lot of people they'd rather be "friends with benefits" instead of labeling themselves as being in an actual relationship together. So I guess for some people they call it whatever they want when they say we used to be a couple but now we're just friends. My thing is, you're either going to be together as a couple or not and move on with your life apart from each other.
My sweet, brilliant dad always said: "No matter what, always have a great doctor, lawyer and mechanic "👍 adding to his list, GREAT contractors. This guy, Nope.
I like how the defendant was all defiant up until Judge milian asked him about his illness and then he was all frail and woe is me…give this man his Oscar…….Mayer hot dog.
Yeah I noticed that after the plaintiff described her mother's situation, the judge looked more compassionate and then suddenly the defendant had a medical sob story...
Yet a contractor was nearby who doesn't take payment. You can pay for paint, wood etc and once they have started pay a bit. A decent contractor would be confident in his work.
@@devianadkar7969 yes I wouldn't pay a thing till they turn up for the job. If they claim they need the material up front, I'd say give me a list and I will order it.
When the Defendant walked in I knew he was shady....When you purchase the materials it should be stapled with the Contract.....It's called smart business practices.....and being organized....Especially when you may be sued for not doing the work....
@@JamieM470 yes had he installed the fence he wouldn't have had to store the materials for her fence, if they were hers anyway. What a moron. Did he really think the judge was that stupid, or anyone for that fact besides him
The deal is if he'd followed through on the original contract, the fence would've already been installed before this lady has to deal with her ailing parents and wasn't available. I always thought you filed paperwork so it would be easily accessible in case you need it. I'm picturing this guy's files are a room full of paperwork piled in boxes! He's definitely lying about everything. He acted as if he'd set a date for installation and the woman cancelled. He never even tried. You know the judge knows the guy is a crook when she orders the interest.

This guy gives contractors a bad name!!! My dad's a contractor and a good one unlike this crook. Last year, he had to deal with this lunatic customer. A couple of months after he finished her job, she calls him to complain about something. She was clearly drunk so he didn't take her seriously at first. When she persisted, he agreed to come back to fix whatever the hell it was that was supposedly a problem. He had to fit her in like a few weeks later because this was MONTHS later and he'd already moved on to other projects. He sent her all of the information about his return and has proof of that (as a fan of all of these court shows I'm always telling him to make sure to keep his paperwork in order and he does), but the Friday before he can return to the job, she files all sorts of complaints against him and is suddenly no longer interested in having him fix this supposed problem. I find that timing quite suspicious considering she knew that he was coming back on I think it was Monday. She then proceeded to make the next several months of his life a living hell. All that came out of those complaints by the way was he has get a few more signatures on his contracts or something like that, but that's quite literally IT. So this lady puts him through months of hell and then all of sudden she texts him asking him to come back and fix the job. At that point he has no more interest in dealing with her with his lawyer agreeing. He didn't trust this lunatic not to suddenly change her mind again and have him arrested for trespassing or something when he showed up. Later, she hires a lawyer to send him a demand letter for some really outrageous amount of money. First of all, she was only supposed to contact him through his lawyer which that violated. Which was his only response to her by the way. Second of all, her whole demand was outrageous. We haven't heard from her since so we're HOPING that this lunatic has finally given up. The craziest part of all of this is that we don't know what started her problem. All he can think is that some other contractor who wanted the job got into her head about this. This was not some one and done customer either: he'd done MULTIPLE jobs for her in the past and she was so satisfied that she had recommended him to other people too. She was also my grandmother's best friend, my dad's mother I mean. He literally knew this lady all of his life, she was no stranger.

Zero upfront? Never! I take 70% upfront or I don’t accept the client. Too often the clients change their mind and then I’m stuck with supplies. I stood on a great reputation and that is why I was always booked. The client could order the supplies themselves if they wanted but they were then responsible for ordering issues.

I've been a contractor for over 20 years and I always require a deposit for all material upfront when signing the contract..Typically it's about 1/3 of the total cost of the job.. I'd say around 90% of the contractors I know require a deposit..
The defendant is a crook. He had no intention on doing the work. Looks like he was having financial difficulties so took her money and probably paid some bills and then then strung her along. Hopefully is not in the business today. But this is common.

Some contractors have substance abuse . Got money, keep it. If the person inquires about it, just make excuses to postpone. This is not just a one time incident, but the person becomes a full fledged crook, doing it all the time. Then only authorities can stop the fraud, because the person certainly won’t stop on his own. Advise for hiring a contractor - at least try to make sure the person is not a crook, and have the person committed to do your job- ie so that he doesn’t take on and do other jobs before completing yours. Don’t pay in advance, and if necessary go with the person to buy the materials needed and keep them on your property. And check the background of the person to make sure he is reputable.
I'd just like to take a moment and offer a hair compliment to the judge and thank her for the effort- it doesn't go unnoticed and women with nice hair make the world a better place for everyone.
What difference does it make if the plaintiff wasn't present when the fence was to be installed? Was she expecting to supervise the work? I'm not saying the delay was necessary, or the defendant was right, but she didn't do anything to assuage the situation by changing her mind all the time. When she walked in, her facial expression was a bit sus. Both were actually at fault, imho.

The plaintiff is a beautiful woman. I would be hurrying up to do a good job just to enjoy her smile when I finished. There is nothing beautiful about the defendant. Being such a dishonest contractor makes someone very ugly.
I'm not arguing anything to do with the case but why is she talking so vindictively at the end? That just seems a little unprofessional to me, you're a judge, it's nothing personal you're just ruling on the law you can rule without sounding condescending and sarcastic!
The plantiffs dating/friend witness shouldn't have gotten involved. He took it upon himself to go to the defendant's place of living for her which he shouldn't have done. Let them fend for themselves. They are more than capable of doing the job. Men always trying to play hero when not called upon to do so. This defendant has a current heart problem which is always why I tell men to take care of themselves.

Later, she hires a lawyer to send him a demand letter for some really outrageous amount of money. First of all, she was only supposed to contact him through his lawyer which that violated. Which was his only response to her by the way. Second of all, her whole demand was outrageous. We haven't heard from her since so we're HOPING that this lunatic has finally given up.
The craziest part of all of this is that we don't know what started her problem. All he can think is that some other contractor who wanted the job got into her head about this. This was not some one and done customer either: he'd done MULTIPLE jobs for her in the past and she was so satisfied that she had recommended him to other people too. She was also my grandmother's best friend, my dad's mother I mean. He literally knew this lady all of his life, she was no stranger.
This contractor is a joke 😂
Get references for EVERY contractor you hire. Period!
He tried it 😂.
This is why you really should look up reviews from their past work/customers and references so you don't get someone that'll give you the runaround and end up not doing a single thing for you
If the fence was up, Dan would have still been hitting that !
i never ask for money up front because i tell people to go buy their own materials . problem solved .
This guy gives contractors a bad name!!! My dad's a contractor and a good one unlike this crook. Last year, he had to deal with this lunatic customer. A couple of months after he finished her job, she calls him to complain about something. She was clearly drunk so he didn't take her seriously at first. When she persisted, he agreed to come back to fix whatever the hell it was that was supposedly a problem. He had to fit her in like a few weeks later because this was MONTHS later and he'd already moved on to other projects. He sent her all of the information about his return and has proof of that (as a fan of all of these court shows I'm always telling him to make sure to keep his paperwork in order and he does), but the Friday before he can return to the job, she files all sorts of complaints against him and is suddenly no longer interested in having him fix this supposed problem. I find that timing quite suspicious considering she knew that he was coming back on I think it was Monday. She then proceeded to make the next several months of his life a living hell. All that came out of those complaints by the way was he has get a few more signatures on his contracts or something like that, but that's quite literally IT.
So this lady puts him through months of hell and then all of sudden she texts him asking him to come back and fix the job. At that point he has no more interest in dealing with her with his lawyer agreeing. He didn't trust this lunatic not to suddenly change her mind again and have him arrested for trespassing or something when he showed up.

One thing I love about JM is that she is not afraid to call a crook a crook lollll she makes sure to put it out there for EVERYONE to know and understand to never make business with them hahahaha
I always wonder how much the interest rate is.
Zero upfront? Never! I take 70% upfront or I don’t accept the client. Too often the clients change their mind and then I’m stuck with supplies. I stood on a great reputation and that is why I was always booked. The client could order the supplies themselves if they wanted but they were then responsible for ordering issues.
I can't believe how much of a liar and crook the contractor is. It's amazing
oh hes so screwed, going on tv and letting the world see how untrustworthy he is
i bet he told the teacher my dog ate my homework too

I've been a contractor for over 20 years and I always require a deposit for all material upfront when signing the contract..Typically it's about 1/3 of the total cost of the job.. I'd say around 90% of the contractors I know require a deposit..
Seconds in and the defendant Mr. Happy, looks anything BUT!

The defendant is a crook. He had no intention on doing the work. Looks like he was having financial difficulties so took her money and probably paid some bills and then then strung her along. Hopefully is not in the business today. But this is common.

Smart woman
Some contractors have substance abuse . Got money, keep it. If the person inquires about it, just make excuses to postpone.
This is not just a one time incident, but the person becomes a full fledged crook, doing it all the time. Then only authorities can stop the fraud, because the person certainly won’t stop on his own.
Advise for hiring a contractor - at least try to make sure the person is not a crook, and have the person committed to do your job- ie so that he doesn’t take on and do other jobs before completing yours. Don’t pay in advance, and if necessary go with the person to buy the materials needed and keep them on your property. And check the background of the person to make sure he is reputable.
Judge be a daughter of a CONTRACTOR ❤😂
Wait a minute.. what happened to the plaintiff and defendant’s comments after the case??
Defendant is just one more general contractor that is a scammer and liar
If he has a license it needs to be revoked...
I'd just like to take a moment and offer a hair compliment to the judge and thank her for the effort- it doesn't go unnoticed and women with nice hair make the world a better place for everyone.
Lol.
Yes a women with Profesional available at any moments should be our standard.
😂
Thank her stylists. They do all the work
What difference does it make if the plaintiff wasn't present when the fence was to be installed? Was she expecting to supervise the work? I'm not saying the delay was necessary, or the defendant was right, but she didn't do anything to assuage the situation by changing her mind all the time. When she walked in, her facial expression was a bit sus. Both were actually at fault, imho.
I don't believe him, he had too many holes in his story. This guy gives contractors a bad name!!! My dad's a contractor and a good one unlike this crook.

He is a crook
Bro Didn’t Have Nothing To Show The Judge
Which Made It An Easy CASE
I would never do business with someone who has one foot in the grave.
First off the contractor can barely dress himself, obviously he spent the first installment on the fence, lies as easy as he breathes!
The plaintiff is a beautiful woman. I would be hurrying up to do a good job just to enjoy her smile when I finished. There is nothing beautiful about the defendant. Being such a dishonest contractor makes someone very ugly.
I miss after the verdict with her husband and her!!
0:05 you mean she hired the DEFENDANT
The Defendant is a Crook.
I hate it when JM gets snide
funniest thing the defendant is my neighbor
This sounds like how my ex does his customers
That guy was such low life trash, I hope he never gets any other customers for his SCAM business!😮
Wait, is the defendant slurring his words?
If my last name was colon the first thing I’d do when 18 is change my name

It's an older reference, sir. But it checks out.
I'm not arguing anything to do with the case but why is she talking so vindictively at the end? That just seems a little unprofessional to me, you're a judge, it's nothing personal you're just ruling on the law you can rule without sounding condescending and sarcastic!

The plantiffs dating/friend witness shouldn't have gotten involved. He took it upon himself to go to the defendant's place of living for her which he shouldn't have done. Let them fend for themselves. They are more than capable of doing the job. Men always trying to play hero when not called upon to do so. This defendant has a current heart problem which is always why I tell men to take care of themselves.
