I'm absolutely positive the landlord lied and told the plaintiff her apartment (wasn't) rent stabilized, because she would've been paying a lot less rent. She should take her landlord to court and get back all her overpayments.
yeah but wasn't she collecting the money from the other two and paying the total...she was probably paying the lower amount and pocketing the excess
@@rockobill7637idk. The judge said she knows for a fact that the landlord didn’t tell her it was stabilized. I think the landlord lied to the tenant to collect higher rent
She knew....bc her reaction wasn't shocked she knew
It was interesting she said she talked in length about rent stabilization with her "roommate", and then caught herself and changed it to "landlord" .
I bet the roommate paying the least WAS the landlord! She may have known, but was ok with the $975/mo rent.
@@MrCharlesEldredgeShe didn’t say “roommate” and then change it to “landlord”. She said “roommate and my landlord”.
Also, the landlord did not live in the apartment. Three roommates shared the apartment and the landlord lived elsewhere.
I want to see the case when she takes the landlord to court. I hope she wins. Meanwhile, that defendant is so weasely.
Her roommate paying the least rent may have been the landlord.
I came here to talk about how tired I am of the "...hardly knew her" joke but y'all beat me to it😂
Heard 3 of these stoopid jokes in the last 4 cases! 😅🙄
I agree... I wish he would SHUT UP with that stupid non-joke
Lmao thank you!!! I thought I was the only one. Harvey is lazy 😂
Right, they always have to shove a sexual connotation in when ever they can
I thought I seen the episode before because of that joke. I had to double check 🤦🏻♀️
She seems like a reasonable plaintiff. She's not like some who come in screaming and ranting they are owed the world because of a failed roommate situation.
The barber and the baker and the candlestick maker all said so! 😂
Funny man.ha
"gouger? he barely knew her"
Didn't see that one coming 🙄
😆😆😆😆
Good one! You must be a RuPaul's Drag Race fan, like me!
It's astounding that people don't pay their rent AND expect roommates to cough up their portion. Pathetic
also astounding that people will rent rooms to strangers from Craigslist, especially a woman renting to a guy
@@mistiinseattle I agree
Thank you! I have some free loading roommates now! I can't kick them out though because they are my kids 11 and 12😅

My “roommates” are the worst! Not only do they not pay rent, they eat all my food, get free utilities, demand rides to wherever they go, free medical AND $$ for their entertainment! 😢
When he walks in a store they all ask about his rent? 🤔
😂😂😂👍
😂😂😂 like no one has ever asked me that when I’ve walked into a store. Ever.
But Judge,"He never used the kitchen" 🤣
Whoever told him he was paying too much for that space/area was right after all. Landlord told them one thing when rent stabilization could’ve capped out on much less
Terrible for the guy with barely a room paying a lot more for less
Everyone hates the “hardly knew her” joke but atp it’s a running joke and I expect it. 😂 I always appreciate it
What does "atp" stand for?
@@BREEZYM6015 at this point
What is the “he hardly knew her” reference. I keep hearing him say it but I don’t get it.
@@tjj2040 I have no idea what the reference or origin is...I just know that if the last word of the case even remotely ends in an "er" sound...they're going to say "he hardly knew her" 🤣
@@naturalnaela oh geez. ok thanks lol!
That knocking....
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Right!
Knocking like the police,I wondered what would they have done or said if he answered the door
I think she was owed a lot more money. She had to cover all of what was believed to be the defendant's rent for 2 months. Let the defendant sue the landlord for the difference.
The defendant is a scum bag by trying to get away without paying rent or utilities. If you agree to pay in good faith, then pay the dam rent!
Yes, he is a total duche just trying to weazle his way out of paying. The whole rent control thing is ridiculous also..in my opinion. The government should not be telling people how much rent they can charge for their property.
i just saw a tiktok about this. The person ended up paying 6K over because her apt was rent stabilized and the landlord never disclosed that. She went back to the landlord and was able to somehow have the credit applied in a way that she will be paying half of the stabilized rent until the 6k credit is gone. the landlord didn't want to go to court. Apparently, you can get that information from some agency in NYC and anyone renting in NYC should be checking that.
Thanks for the update!
She looks like Velma from Scooby-Doo
Yes!
"I placed an order"😂
"Gouge her? He hardly knew her!" - what kinda serial killer joke is this 😂
ARGHHH Harvey and his tired "I don't even know her" jokes. I am officially OVER IT.
The show was cancelled, so you will only here the jokes if you watch the old shows.
Ugh, I know.
@kennethbaker5223 who cares where she is hearing it from?
It's irritating to me too!
Gas is probably used for heat.. so his “i didnt use it” excuse is out the window. He agreed to pay a certain amt of rent and utilities. Pay up, dude.
We can't have it both ways folks. We can't say landlord's can charge whatever they want because of "capitalism" and then wonder why there's a homelessness crisis in big cities.
There's a homeless problem because people are spending their money on drugs and booze. Fact!
Market rents have zero to do with homelessness.
It's political. They have so many gov't and private groups who "help" the homeless they have to keep it all going while they ride the gravy train.
Drugs and mental illness. Ffs
Small cities too. It's hard out there.
She looks and sounds young... But dresses like she's in her 50s 🤣
Plaintiff probably knew her apartment was rent stabilized & tried to get over.
The Judge makes up what she wants by if she likes 5he person. How many times has she said “no proof , no credit”
Thumbnail looks like Felix the cat and Betty boop live action, can’t wait to watch
Betty sueing Barney 😂😂😂
"suing"🙄
Sooie!
*sewing
Does she just walk around the apartment knocking on his door wearing a towel?? Did I misunderstand that?
Well, she is covered by the towel. 😀
I think he was sneaking in and out of there trying to avoid paying the rent and she was trying to catch him red handed at different times. Her friend shows up and says let's open the together to confront him but i'm in a hurry. She's in a towel from a shower and says ok.
"I placed an order!!!!" Is order-a-roommate a version of order-a-bride?
I caught that!! 🤣🤣
Order up!
The defendant finding out that the apartment should have been rent stabilized, probably really helped out the plantiff in the long run. Him making the claim in court, prompted the judge to look into it... and now the plantiff knows for sure the landlord screwed her. I hope sho got a lot of money back.
I wonder if the landlord overcharged them for the apartment. Because he was hiding that for a reason
The roommate paying the least may have been the landlord She slipped at the end.
I love the plaintiff's sense of style. The defendant doesn't understand how renting works.
You mean just the towel getup? 😊
Well obviously he was right lol she was charging him to much in rent
Well it’s true that she was wrong and he was right on rent stabilization so just say you hate men lmao
That's why he consulted a lawyer. What's wrong with asking for help?
It is interesting to hear of a scenario where a tenant has leverage in how much they can pay based on the rent stabilization.
What does rent stabilization mean? I don't live in an area with that apparently. Plus I only ever rented 2 times..
Craigs list scares me .. who feels the same?
Yep...I almost got scammed off Craigslist ...haven't been back on since then
Nope. You have to be careful and use common sense. I've used it plenty. No issues.
Why would a ton of random people ask him how much his rent is? Also, how do they know he's paying too much? It sounded like none of them saw his apartment or bedroom, and rent can vary greatly between different apartments or houses in the same neighborhood.
Maybe I’m old fashioned but it amazes me how many women are so quick to become roommates with a man they don’t know. I’d be so uncomfortable.
You don’t have a choice when you can’t afford housing. It’s a privilege to be able to pick and choose roommates.
@@Tuturu708What? OMG no.
@@Tuturu708you do have a choice lol
Men are sometimes easier to live with. And just because the new roommate might be a female doesn't mean they are going to be great to live with.
@@ohcaptainmycaptain4829 No I don’t mean being easier to get along with. I mean feeling safe in my home. I wouldn’t feel comfortable from a safety standpoint. It’s sooooo much going on out here with these crazy ass men. I’d have to sleep with a knife under my pillow😂
Dude they looked in your room 😂
That was professional 👏🏿
Did anyone else wonder if the defendant knew that the property was rent stabilized before he moved in? Who is that friendly in the neighborhood that engages a stranger about how much their rent is AND knows that their building is rent stabilized?🤔🤔🤔 fishy to me🤷🏽♀️🤔
Is it just me or does the plaintiff look like she's from the 1950's?
Yes, it’s her “look”
YEA THATS HER FAV. ERA
Classy ❤
The plaintiff was a very sweet person & presented her case very well and I love the judge she Rocks 🌺
They don’t have the right to open the door. Period.
He hardly knew her. .hee haw,hee haw
The defendant should have done his research BEFORE signing a lease complaining about how “high” the rent is. SMH
They need to fire Harvey for that absurd joke.
Defendant is all kinds of sketchy. Who cares what the barber and baker thinks about how much he *should* pay? He needs to pay what he's *supposed* to pay. When a tenant doesn't pay on time and then tries to "investigate" *why they shouldn't pay rent,* there is going to be a problem.
Yeah, if you have an issue with the rules of your lease, you discuss it with the landlord/roommates. You don't just stop paying because some people around town casually mentioned your rent is too high. Between that and the camera in his room, it almost feels like he makes a living looking for reasons to screw people over.
Defendant was definitely sketch. He likes to make a big thing out of nothing & definitely doesn't understand leases. He's lucky his roommates didn't go into his room searching for rent money.
He should of paid what he agreed to pay at the signing of his sub lease, a 3rd of 2400. Instead she had to eat it in the pocket.
The barber and baker was right saying he was paying too much. The landlord was charging them way more because it was rent stabilized anyway. They know the area and rent amount.
@@krystalroller2915should *HAVE*
Ughhh.
I remember those days of poverty and roommates - ugh.
The plaintiff is hella stylish.
I'm gonna start keeping count of how many times that line".....her, I hardly knew her" is recycled....🙄
Just watch Douglas if he’s looking down holding his head chances are that’s not an intelligent statement! 😂
If he’s shaking his head and smiling, it’s idiotic
Plaintiff - “These boots are made for walkin’
And that’s just what I’ll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you”
Unbelievable !
Hell No! Men should always be in charge! 😎
She knew the rent was stabilized
The plaintiff is uniquely attractive.
Please visit optometrist
As soon as I hear “countersuit”, the case becomes more interesting.
I like the plaintiff’s outfit.
Was this episode filmed in the 1960’s?
Why would any adult have roommates 😂
Everyone is talking crap about the defendant but not the plaintiff when she’s an absolute liar! She said around the 5 min mark that she paid the late fee’s and at the end when the judge asked if there were late fees she said she didn’t pay them… so she’s a liar and makes me believe she knew about the rent! Judge gave that twat to much respect!
A late fee was taken out of her deposit, so that's why she said she paid a late fee....
You must have missed the part where the judge asked if she had PROOF that she paid, and she stated what I just wrote ^
* So therefore there were other late fees she didn't pay for
Edit: you forgot an extra 'O' in your too
I agree. And her slip of the tongue at the end tells us it may have been the roommate paying the least who was the landlord.
@@MrCharlesEldredge the roommate wasn't the landlord; otherwise he would have picked a room that could fit a bed.
Do yall even watch the video?? Lol
She said she was charged one but also said it will be taken out of her deposit, she also said in the end she didn't have the money in which the judge agreed the landlord will more than likely keep it from the deposit
its not fair I lived in an apartment as a bsf and paid double the rent that was rundown and the landlord won't do any repairs on in a 18 months lease with first, last, and security down and a cosigner even through I made enough come to find out everyone else paid 500 with none of the other stuff
The defendant is a little weasel. He still should've paid his rent while looking to see whether the rent was stabilized and whether the landlord was aware of it. And if he was (which we see now), then you deal with it but don't leave your roommates to clean up your mess.
No he shouldn't have. They should have had his back and only paid the CORRECT amount of rent while getting the overpaid amount BACK. 💸
@@localvega688 that thinking is why America is in a crisis right now. Stop being the problem and start being part of the solution. Victimhood has to be eradicated. It's a scapegoat for the weak-minded.
Dude is a clown
what would the landlord have to gain from not telling them it was rent stabilized? Especially since he was still getting the same amount of money? im confused
Me to. They were being fair to the 3rd tenant since his room was small
You assume she was charged the same amount for the entirety of her tenancy and that he didn't demand a higher-than-allowed rent precipitating her departure.
Also, what does especially mean? That would be the ONLY reason he wouldn't benefit from lying to her about rent control.
Whoever told him he was paying too much for rent for that space in that area was right. Rent stabilizing means it’s a cap on what they have to pay for that space. The landlord didn’t tell them because he’d be getting less money. The place could only be worth $1200 max but he’s charging double
Because on rent stabilization , the rate is defined by law, say she was paying $2400. But rent stabilization only allows the landlord to charge 1300 for that apt, he gives her a homemade lease for 2400 not the legal one for 1300. I live in nyc .
Probably makes the much smaller room easier to rent out. For arguments sake if you have a house with two 15 x 15 rooms and one 10 x 10, how many people do you think would pay $800 a month for the 10 x10 when they could have the 15 x 15 for the same price? And in that instance the landlord can say that the 15 x 15 is $975 where the 10 x 10 is $400 making the price difference due to the amount of space you get. It's much like a hotel where you pay more for a bigger room.
I wish the litigants had a second case on the show 👍
She knew it was rent controlled 😂
Of course.
Soooooo she paid more rent than the third roommate on purpose 🤔
One criticism I have of JM is how big of a landlord she is “woe is me”
This was the one of the best case in a wild everyone had a point,evidence and facts
I think it is ridiculous that the landlord gets to keep the money and the defendant gets away with not paying his portion! I understand that the apartment ended up being rent stabilized but if the landlord told the plaintiff that it wasn't and he's the one that lied why should that fall on the plaintiff's back? She still paid her portion, the defendant seems like somebody who was just trying to find every excuse to get out of paying his fair share, why was he going around the neighborhood talking to people asking about the price of the apartment when he should have done that before he moved in, you don't make an agreement and then after you've made the agreement and live there then decide to start investigating what the property or rent is worth give me a break grow up and take care of your responsibilities! I really hope that the plaintiff takes the landlord to court and Sue's for what she is rightfully owed.
I was told when I come to USA I don't have to pay bills😂
She didn't have no business opening the door landlords can't just go in your house if you don't pay rent 🙄
And she was not even the landlord.
If my roommate wasn't paying their rent and leaving me to pay for them... I sure as hell would open that door. Pay attention because she's not the landlord.
@janicester I paid attention and she's still not allowed into his room even if he didn't pay his rent lmfao just because you WANT to do something doesn't mean you can there a difference pay attention
She didn't go into his room. Did you even watch the video? 🙄@@spacepanda9037
If I close my eyes, he sounds like Fernando Alonso.
We have a 3% increase every year for our commercial space and I always thought it was fair
We have up to I think 6%? But everybody in the community hates it
A lot bc it was going up the max amount even during covid when everybody was struggling.
She still lost lol
Thank you so much for the spoiler alert!🤦
I like both the plaintiff and the defendant, respectful and courteous. Defendant seemed extremely honest, plaintiff seems truthful as well.
defendant tried to claim that she went into his room - she stood in the doorway, he is not honest
She lying, she knew it was stabilized , she was the one profiting and benefiting
They shouldn't have open the door to his room. They evaded his privacy. Judge you are wrong on that regardless if he paid rent or not. They're noisy roommates.
Nosey too
Is Lee Van Clef sitting behind the plaintif lol.
Alex the kind of dude to get a girl pregnant then ask after if she was ok with it
Based on what? 🤦♀
8:03 She stood in the doorway, looking.
I agree with the defendant that they did violate his privacy. That's BS... they come in me life that I'd make them regret it
What a total jerk he is!
I would immediately evict him
I think they make the plaintiff's family sit behind defendant and vice versa just watch the people in the front seats.
Who else thinks Ed the one pating $475 is the landlord 😒
Being a Freeloader
Why did she creep me out, like a Tim Burton character
Rent stabilization is a scam. They are trying that here.
Love her glasses
wow that's so crazy (is literally in debt to their sister bc of rent)
The statement "She is a very wise woman, and that proves more women should be in charge." No no it doesn't! It proves she should be in charge. Anyone with her intelligence should probably be in charge. But it doesn't prove some random woman should be in charge, because this judge is very wise!
Well said 👏🏼 👏🏼
I can't believe they allowed that into the final cut. I hope she gets evicted after that statement.
The defendant is either ingenuous, stupid or a weasel - take your pick - same net effect; he didn't handle his responsibilities responsibly.
I think the plaintiff is so cute ☺️
Alex the mini-Latin lover knows that the big girl roommate was trying to make him her little house boy. Alex the mini-Latin lover will be OK after he moves in with Charlie Sheen as his new roommate.
If he was subleasing from her and paid rent to her, why would she not have pay him back the deposit he paid to her. She was acting as an agent for the landlord.
Because she hasn't received the security deposit back from the landlord yet. There might be deductions for damages, late rent penalties, etc. Once she receives it, she will have to give him his part of it minus any deductions specifically applying to him. If she doesn't, he can take her back to court again.
smart move from the defendant
She looks like a Guess Who card
The "he hardly knew her" line is getting old. Annoying.
The true defendant needs to be that landlord ..
A male judge also wise.......
Keep the gender comments out .....
Simple math is simple math.....
Regardless of gender.......
One x
So the governmnetn can keep going up on the taxes (local gov) but the landlord has to eat it if the landlord can't raise the rent to accomodate the taxes going up due to the government saying they can't for rent stablization. Surely if the landlord can prove taxes went up they can at least pass that on.
