Furniture Failure

[@rckkeller9437]

One of the most professional plaintiffs ever on this show. Loved her!

[@bitsaurus]

She must work out. Wow.

[@vixxter3099]

I must say that it is quite refreshing for once to see the defendant actually owning up to their mistakes and not trying to blame the plaintiff

[@dawgfacesoldier]

One of the most "honest" cases I've seen in awhile. No lying, no deception, and no ignorance. The defendants took accountability and moved on without any friction. As my daughter use to say..."Easy peasy, lemon squeezy"😁

[@marys4565]

Haha. Very true. And I say that often.

[@Pinkblueflowerlady]

Yea but they should just gave her money back without going through court…

[@hadley407]

I would never agree to let a moving company get my furniture fixed. They are going to attempt to get it done as cheap as possible.

[@Marc-King777]

It's mindboggling that a moving company would think they have the right to fix something they broke during their shipping and delivery process. They should have did the right thing and issued the woman the cost of the furniture and her shipping fee. Then they can have the thing repaired and sell it themselves to recoup some of their loss. But for them to try to strongarm her into letting them repair it, then lying and saying it's part of the terms and conditions is totally absurd! They should be shut down by the state.

Thx. Yes. Her face seemed off too. Under the weather? I would hate not to be able to call out sick

[@glenncurley680]

@@johnmdaniels27 Okay, but not always. I've seen her get off the bench in heals.

[@Hvac.tools_]

She seems to know what she’s doing, and the other side gets it as well. I’m sure they did give her hard ball. Kudos to her for not eating the lost.

[@thebookwasbetter3650]

Yeah, she seems very professional and looking out for her clients. That would really suck to tell a client that if something is broken upon receipt that it's going to be repaired rather than replaced.

[@MsSparklesNGlitter]

Something repaired isn't new. If the customer paid for a new item they want a new item not something that was damaged during delivery and repaired after.

[@StephanieLenz71]

Exactly. I thought this was the answer Harvey was fishing for. Glad to see you said it here.

[@Mon67ica]

Yes! 100 times yes.

[@shaddo1798]

Precisely! I think it is in the company’s best interest to revisit that policy. It doesn’t benefit/help the customer in any way. They will continue to be in court.

[@JamieM470]

Absolutely. A damaged & repaired item is no longer "new", and should not have a "new" price tag.

[@KSakamoto]

@@shaddo1798they don’t have that policy to benefit the customer, they have it to benefit themselves.

[@elvickRULES]

She seems incredible at her job.

[@0LadyV0]

No one is going to accept, the repair of their brand new item, before they even get it. Shippers are different than moving companies. Don't use these people.

[@JeffCoHale99]

Love when she asks if it’s on their web site. “I don’t work in IT so I don’t know.” Like you need to work in IT to know what’s on your website.

[@billmoran3219]

Fact of the matter is she paid for insurance on a new item to be shipped, not a repaired item that she lost a sale on because of the shippers incompetence ! If defendant think that item is just as good as new then they can sell it and recoup their losses. Why offer something if you aren’t going to honor it .

[@cdickerson8759]

It's so rare the party on the losing end says they learned something and will correct the problem. Kudos to both the defendant and plaintiff for their integrity!

[@jeffmitchellberry70]

I think both litigants were honorable, honest people. No one was spinning a tale here. I would gladly do business with either of these companies even after watching this case.

[@mountendew]

Fantastic verdict

[@halinaparker6833]

Love seeing the judge comfortable in jeans and sneakers! ❤

[@ThejOH007]

I can see why she under insured it though. She figured if anything really went wrong she would get shipping costs back as well.

[@edwardgarcia409]

Can’t sell it as a new item even if it’s repaired and looks perfect.

[@DBR00]

Love how the judge is wearing sneakers and jeans.

[@kijanailis]

It makes so much more sense now that the reason Harvey is included is he's a PRODUCER of the show 🤣

[@khiemdee4573]

Que?

[@PeaM91]

Yeah, I was trying to figure out the mystery. He irks me

[@synnove1046]

I love Harvey!

[@thebookwasbetter3650]

I always wondered that. Doesn't he own TMZ? Why is he dealing with this small potatoes job?

[@burton6849]

just realized that the defendants had a no lose situation on the show: if they lose - they don't pay (the show pays). If they win they still don't pay. the plaintiff only gets the insured amoutn if they win. if they lose, they lose. so for people saying the defendant was surprisingly truthful etc. I don't think its necessarily because they are 'upstanding' defendants - but think it has more to do with : no matter what they say in this situation - they can't really lose

[@richardmayora1289]

When I move to Florida from up north, my dining table arrived in 27 pieces and they insisted that they wanted to repair it. What a nightmare.

[@corporateraider77]

I wouldn’t want that botched job either. Just take better care of someone else’s property!

[@riggamorrischan]

It sure is a stunning sideboard. I’m a big fan of mid century modern but over 2 grand for a new, not antique, piece is quite the price tag

[@janetpharris861]

It’s the wood, that was so expensive

[@tchevrier]

it's called quality.

[@riggamorrischan]

@@tchevrier It’s called overpriced. you can find a mcm teak wood credenza for half the price and it’s still just as good quality

[@tchevrier]

@@riggamorrischan Not necessarily. Not all mcm teak wood credenza's are created equal. Sure you can find similar furniture for half the price, even a third the price, but that doesn't mean that they are of the same quality.

[@marilynwillett804]

not at all, it looks cheap.

[@Daydream355]

She made the right call. They didn’t do their due diligence.

[@arianefr78]

If I am the buyer, and I paid for new, I won't be accepting a repaired one, and if I'm the seller, there is no way I am selling a repaired one, as new. I'm glad she won, but she only won because she hadn't signed their 'conditions' part of the contract...

[@synnove1046]

Why does that matter? It sound’s as though you think the plaintiff won on an a technicality, as though the win wasn’t quite what she deserved. But it’s the defendant’s responsibility to provide the full contract that they want the customer (plaintiff) to sign, which they didn’t do.

[@jennygiallanza4524]

Now she was prepared! Great job lady!!!

[@robertlaschever3935]

While the shippers were likely not careful, that piece of furniture looks very cheaply made. I restore Mid-Century Modern pieces and they would not fall apart like that even when dropped a bit.

[@pmabrouk]

😅If I am paying for a NEW item then it better be delivered NEW NOT repaired!!! Would never ship with this shoddy moving company

[@lancetruong3075]

JM sounds like she's was under the weather. Who would want their shipment to be fixed when damaged by the shipper?

[@lolamaude3449]

Good decision.... you can not make a brand new piece of furniture new again after being damaged, for like she said, there were chips and wood putty will look slighty different.

[@scotthewitt258]

I would not trust them to fix it, either. Not after they damaged it that bad.....

[@ABALLAM3]

While this has been commented several times, it is also my first time seeing Milian wearing jeans and running shoes. Usually, you see her legs and heels. I wonder if this was after her faceplant when leaving the bench and this attire was fear of it being a repeat event?

[@Shaikhofilm]

Judge apparently thinks a person has to have read and know what the terms are in a contract to be valid . No. The terms are there , and most everybody doesn’t go through them in detail . Terms say repair furniture , which they charge for insurance and shipping based on that . Bad judgment by the judge.

[@synnove1046]

No, the judge said that the customer of the shipping company (“customer” in this case is the plaintiff on The People’s Court) had to have SIGNED an agreement that provided the terms and conditions of the contract, or needed to have checked a box on the signed contract that said she KNEW the terms and conditions by having read them elsewhere on the website. Judge Milian specifically said that it was the customer’s responsibility to read the terms and that if they chose not to read them then any problems arising from that were “on them” (the customer).
