Wrecking a Wedding

The plaintiff says the defendant is her ex-husband of 25 years. She alleges he owes her money for their son’s wedding, and she’s suing for every penny. The defendant says he never agreed to split the cost of the wedding, and he insists his ex actually owes him her portion of their kids’ college tuition. He’s countersuing for college fees.

I LOVE judge Milian. But it’s the most annoying thing how her and Judge Judy act like they’re not being paid to be there…towards the end of every case they act like it isn’t their job and they’re being bothered 😂 “no no no stick a fork in me I’m done”

[@tbecker97204]

Sounds like Mom isn't doing as well financially as Dad, yet she *expects him* to help her out. Wow.

[@Lauren80s]

I love the D’s accent. 😂

[@LadyTShow]

Wonder if the defendant would've still won the case if she didn't get a chance to play her evidence on her phone? She literally had to almost force Milian to hear the evidence! geesh

[@barbarawallach1334]

She would have won anyway, because he already implied he was going to pay for half.

Is it just me, or does the x-husband look like Mickey Rourke? He seems like a good guy. Shame on the x-wife for causing family drama & division over such a small amount of money.

[@rickcollins5943]

No, I thought the same exact thing!! He favors Rourke for sure.

[@hakimstjeanblot2847]

I feel bad for him, he clearly feels like he’s been screwed over but almost seems hopeless

[@BeKind2AllKinds]

He seems like an arrogant jerk.

[@jaynehogue2459]

He has been screwed

The real question is why are they paying for his wedding to begin w/. All that money invested in his education, be grateful, be thankful. If u can't afford ur own wedding, don't get married until u can. If it's important to get married, go to city hall, then save money and have a wedding @ a later date.

[@oldageisdumb]

@@KimmyLisenbyWhy does everyone assume the kids demanded the parents pay? I’m sure the bride’s parents saved and offered.

[@KimmyLisenby]

@@oldageisdumb : The same reason you are assuming I assumed the kids demanded the parents pay.

Im pretty sure she was leaning in her favor even before the vmail! She’s said numerous times before what a contract is and isn’t! Him telling her to put the receipts in the Escalade could be for anything! If this wasn’t for tv a ok lawyer woulda got this thrown out immediately! Even the lawyers on that show suits coulda won this case! Judge was beyond biasis in this order! He won cause the show pays the verdict out of the appearance fee! He can afford it even if she hadn’t this was all about principal! And he won it hands down

Family of groom traditionally pays for rehearsal dinner and a few other things.

[@GW-ou9tu]

He definitely agreed to pay, but he’s so over her being a leach.

[@Bebedollie]

Yeah and how can the judge not see it

[@questioneverything8572]

@@Bebedollie She is biased, like many judges. If the roles were reversed she would have called the man a leech for 20+ minutes.

@@Bebedollie Thats not law

[@VladmirPoopN]

​@@questioneverything8572the plaintiff had evidence that her ex agreed to pay..... why else would he have left a voicemail telling her where to leave the receipts🤷‍♀️?

[@r1verman]

Bottom line is he was doing this for his son, not his ex. There should've never been a dispute. Keeping a good relationship with your child is far more important than money.

[@nekea93]

I agree completely. He could have left her out of it and talked to the son directly. Think there would be a less frustration because his ex would be out of it

[@seanflood5087]

Modern women wonder why men don't want to get married now.

[@evildrporkchop26]

Judge broke the dad when she told him "you're a good dad, youve done 1000 things right" you can see he he changed his attitude and wanted to cry

[@juliegill9322]

Tell your adult son and his future wife to pay for the wedding.

[@tamwy19]

A man should never go in front of a woman judge because history has shown time after time that the woman is always going to get the man to pay especially when she is in high Authority

[@josefwashere]

Great dad and I think he truly would have paid half of the ex-wife wouldn’t do what (he said) she always did, which was tell him what was going to happen vs. ask him, etc. I wish we could go back 10 years and have the dad go after the mom for college help in court 😊
