Being a Real Party Pooper

The plaintiff hired the defendant to decorate her 40th birthday bash. However, the plaintiff says the defendant told her one price and then upped it at the last minute after she had already given her a deposit. The plaintiff canceled the job and is suing the defendant for her deposit back. The defendant insists the only reason the price increased was because the plaintiff requested additional decorations.

[@brittney5775]

Plot twist: The plaintiff already knew she wouldn't win. She just wanted to see Douglas in hopes that he would ask for her number.

Weave and wig wearers believe that men find them attractive. This is not necessary the case. The vast majority of wig and weave wearers are single.

I have never seen Douglas the bailiff blush, but he was blushing today! 🤣 I love him! He stole the show today without even trying. He can't help it if he's handsome AF. 😍 That poor plaintiff couldn't keep her eyes off him. We understand, girl. 😅

Many people look to men believing they have authority. She’s called out many men for speaking/looking to the bailiff during their hearing.

[@abbiereynolds8016]

​@fitnessfocused Be that as it may, he's still a bailiff not a judge. You'd have to be absolutely stupid to be looking at the bailiff in court when it's the judge that decides your fate, regardless of gender. I don't think in this case it's an authority thing, she was just being thirsty😅

The plaintiff was in over her head with the cost of the party... who gives someone s deposit and then says, "let me get back to you". Lady, byeeeee

[@BobBlumenfeld]

"That's a new phone." Yeah. You know how you always get a new phone during the four weeks of critical text messages and right before where the messages support your case? Even Judge Milian for once admits, "Of course it is, Honey."

[@sunflowerinorbit3578]

That mushroom hair is crazy.

[@madmaxofspokane1691]

It is what it is. The Plaintiff set out from the start to use the Defendant for her ideas and then stiff her for the payment. I'm really surprised that she had the nerve to sue the Defendant for the deposit. She was so guilty that she couldn't even look the judge in the eye while she was lying. And the old "This is a new phone. Those texts that are my proof were on the old phone." scam. Has that B.S. ever worked for anyone in court??

[@ruthcalfee7868]

Nope, it sure hasn’t!

[@mycrownfitsfine]

Right!! I feel like she used her for ideas and when she went to charge her the full price, she changed her mind because the visuals for the party were already done.

[@mickm6309]

What surprises me the most with the majority of people going on this show, they can't do a simple task like transferring their old messages over to their new phone. I'm sure it is a feature that has been around for at least 10 years.

[@ruthcalfee7868]

Or they could go to their online account and get the messages. It’s such a poor excuse for anyone to use in this day and age!!!

[@elvickRULES]

There’s a reason. The texts don’t exist / prove something else

Pretty sus that the plaintiff had a “new” phone. I’m with the Judge on the fact that she didn’t immediately complain about being charged more money than she was originally quoted, which I believe hurt her credibility!!!

[@jennifer_mertens]

According to the complaint, the Plaintiff was told the final cost WHEN she gave the Defendant the deposit. Not after. Also, coming up with half of the texts and saying it's a new phone, makes no sense. The texts also prove the OPPOSITE of what the Plaintiff was claiming. The Defendant should have sued for the balance of the contract. It sounds like the Plaintiff used all the Defendant's ideas. That would have been interesting to see...

Everyone is giggling about the plaintiff getting called out for oggling Douglas, and how it's cute. But if a man was doing the same to a female bailiff, he would be thrown under a bus. Creepy is creepy, people.

[@UncleDuTheWatchman]

I don't think it's creepy for either gender to admire a good looking person. There's a difference between harassing a person and admiring them. People stare me down all the time. It never feels creepy. It only approaches "creepy" when they start talking about what they want to DO to me...🤣
