[@FortunateJuice]

As Allen was dragging him out, I thought Defendant Kelly was going to say, "And I mowed Judge Frushour's lawn too."

[@Battybat-w1z]

Boy judge should get a medal. These people try to pull so much crap it's unbelievable.

[@magi267]

Whoa, I'm at the second case and it is even stupider than the first, well, maybe not.

[@Battybat-w1z]

@@magi267 I wonder if people don't do there homework before coming to court it's unbelievable

[@doreendaykin6693]

Oh my goodness…Judge Simpson deserves a medal of honour for his patience with many of the cases today. I’m beginning to believe all landlords and all tenants should be required to be represented by legal counsel. When a case is presented where neither the plaintiff or defendant can answer a simple, straight forward question from the Judge. Or at least have the landlord forced to have representation so then the Judge only has to expend so much energy on the tenant….. .

[@magi267]

I always look for him and my favorite court is landlord/tenant.😊 Wow, cool opening! She thought she had it in the bag - "when can he come in?" and she tries to fob off the Judge, lol, he ain't buyin' it. But neither will give him a date...they are both idiots in the case. I hate to claim her as a fellow nurse.

I still waiting for jerome vs cassidy case. Donna Tope really mess up!

[@Lizzy-o6m]

That guy Kelly does all this stuff. Then denies it he has so much bull its unbelievable

[@magi267]

He is finally being held accountable but he's trying to blame everything on being a senior. "Poor me, poor me." Wow, and I thought the other cases were good. Please someone share this with some of the court commentators.

[@FortunateJuice]

This was a highlight reel day. That first defendant was really unbearable. I know she was speaking English, but all I heard as she was talking was "me, me, me, me, me."

[@Kōkako-i1t]

She's full of baloney that's why, you seem them all the time. It's really odd behaviour when renting should not be this difficult. It's excuses to why they don't want to pay, it's not that they are broke, they just had at handling money. Many plead poverty but they eat extremely well. So that excuse doesn't wash with me. Pay your rent and have total peace, don't pay and you make life harder on yourself... and stressing the judge out. 🤭

[@lindaebert789]

Wow 😲 you did an amazing job with every tuff case🙏🏻💜

[@RangerX3X]

If the landlord cannot charge rent because there is no COC, then there should be no tenant allowed to live there. The property should be treated the same as condemned and the tenant should be thrown out the next day like people in apartment complexes are after floods. She gets to live there for six months rent free and get all that escrow back all the while denying access for repairs to be made. I don't know why anyone would want to get into this business when it is so flagrantly rigged in the favor of one side.

[@44days621]

It's the lawyer's fault. He should have argued for his client better. The landlord shouldn't charge rent, but someone is not legally allowed to live somewhere rent free for months at-a-time or we all could do it.

[@maryturula7620]

​@@44days621Partly the lawyer's fault, but mostly Simpson's aggressively anti-landlord stance.

[@deedee7496]

I love watching but seriously think you need to listen to some of the people a little better. The last case i dont think he was fully understanding what she was trying to say. They was only put on the payment plan bc the other person had a bill. So to keep it going without putting up a full balance. They added the payment plan that the other person was to be paying every month. But instead they added it to the couples bill bc the other person wasn’t paying.

[@southernparadise9896]

It took me a minute to figure out what the tenant was saying. From what I gather, when they moved in (2019), they just took over the landlords estimated payment plan. It didn’t get put into the tenants name until they lived there almost a year. The landlords estimated payment was a lower amount because it was based on one person…, of course the usage went up exponentially after a family of five moved in. So end of year (2020) when they got the actual reading, there was a large outstanding portion. So that’s why dte tried to get that 2500 before changing it over to the couples name. It’s also why their bills in the year Dec 20-Sept 21 were a lot higher because now they were estimating their bill based on the higher usage of the family from Oct 19-Oct 20. Edit to add…I’ve never heard of water bills that high so I’m hoping it’s both water and electric.

[@deedee7496]

@@southernparadise9896 They state they was paying the portion they used a the agreed payment plan. The bill went from $281.00 payment plan amount to over 500 a month. Meaning they was paying for what they was using and the payment plan amount. Every time the gentle man tried to explain it he is told it’s not wanted to be heard. I haven’t either mine is about 53$ a month. That’s a whole lot of water.
