Suit Minus Pants Equal Lawsuit | The People's Court

[@mymonkey10]

It seems silly to me, but understand why, a dry cleaners would offer X amount of services to anyone after losing an article of clothing... Why on Earth would someone want to continue to do business at a place that has proven to lose things???

[@shirleywiese5230]

I learned about the dry cleaning receipts on the show. I’ve never read it back of a ticket.

[@ndavis3967]

Dry cleaner is not sorry at all, laughing at the end and telling him to buy a new suit with a measly $130.

[@HiddenAgendas]

Dude a new pants is only $200. The jacket itself is $400. Plaintiff wanted the shop owner to buy him a new suit. Fuck that.

[@josefwashere]

Why should he be sorry. The receipt says it clearly what the consequences are. It’s straightforward. Nothing shady.

[@janene4855]

If the dry cleaners are shady and know brand names- they could make a killing by " losing" an item.

[@HiddenAgendas]

He doesn't deserve a new pants. He could have picked it up and forgot to handover the ticket. Then he came back and said where is my pants? lol fake as fuck

[@I_am_enigma53]

Hickey Freeman suits costs $600 and they are really nice suits.

[@thefonzkiss]

Sure, but for a $600 suit the jacket will always be $400 ish and the pants $200 ish. If it’s a one year old suit he would almost certainly be able to order a replacement pair of pants. TBH he should have bought two pairs of pants with a suit anyway because the pants are the thing that wear out, not the jacket. Anyone who knows what they’re doing with new suits does that. This guy brought his mommy to court, so it’s not surprising he didn’t know.

[@davidarmillie4226]

Well the pants did not just evaporate! Obviously someone stole them! Was it an internal job?

[@M2161]

I doubt stolen, probably an employee let them go home with another order.

[@MrCharlesEldredge]

The law that says a business can put a "contract" on the back of a receipt without getting ANY acknowledgement from the customer and the customer is supposed to abide by it is a ridiculous law. Unfair and should be changed. But we know our lawmakers favor business and corporations above all else. We don't really have our constitutional Republic anymore.

[@lavy1513]

Wait that's so wrong. So he can steal everyone's nice expensive clothing and pay them $100 bucks. Then turn around and sell the item on ebay.

[@momoni368]

My thoughts exactly

[@HiddenAgendas]

No one is going to buy a used pants for more than $100. A brand new suit pants is $200. lol

[@bethehype5339]

So I could bring $1 million suit into a dry cleaner they could steal my suit and then offer me $100 for it … and it’s legal

[@williamxie771]

If you dont like the policy go elsewhere. This is america

[@Sophie-mm7ow]

I don't think the comment was posted in a manner that said he didn't like the policy. He was asking a hypothetical question. Answering it would be typing a "yes," and that would answer his question. He didn't say anything about not liking the policy, which I'm sure no one would be ok with it. He was just clarifying the defendants policy that should be changed. He is right, the cleaners could be stealing a lot of clothes that they know are very expensive because they don't want to spend that much of their own money on them. If they steal them and tell the client that they lost their clothes, they only end up paying 10X what they were going to charge the customer. Sounds like a pretty good hustle to get a lot of nice things that the cleaners set the price and therefore set the amount that the customer will receive when they pick up their items and are told they cannot find them. In this case, it appears that the pants were of much more value than the shirt, and so they didn't want them. The only item they wanted and just happened to come up missing (the pants) are probably hanging in the defendants closet.

[@adriankasan6344]

Buy another suit just dont take it to those dry cleaners 😂

[@satiashaw1857]

That does not seem right at all. They even acknowledge it's completely their fault. How is it they cannot be responsible for losing something that valuable, if they literally take it on in the first place? So if I taken something that's $10,000 and they choose to just keep it, all they would have to give me is $137? 💯 responsibility and their fault. What keeps them from just taking stuff home and getting clothes for cheap? There should be some concept in the law that says, the contract does not reasonably mitigate damages.

[@newsflash7609]

The law presumes that parties entering contracts are bound by the contract, generally absent misrepresentation. It's kinda fundamental to having contracts. If all contracts could be torn up later when you're unhappy, there's no clarity/confidence in the contracts. Theoretically, if you don't like that cleaner's terms, go find one who doesn't limit their liability (good luck on that, by the way). Think of it this way---cleaners would need to charge A LOT more when they accept high value items if it worked the way you wanted. Maybe some folks would be okay with that, but that's not where the market has evolved to.

[@honeybee3383]

@@newsflash7609 Exactly. That's what I think people are missing is the liability with cleaners. Things get misplaced often, it happens. They could find another cleaners, but I highly doubt there is a cleaners that says they will pay in full of the item lost.

[@satiashaw1857]

@@newsflash7609 That makes sense. But I have also seen contact cases won't because the contract itself wasn't reasonable, or lawful itself. I guess there's a gray line in there and it seems like this should cross it to me. But I do see your point. Thank you!

[@pmabrouk]

The defendant is disgusting and smug about his irresponsibility. He should have paid for the plaintiff’s pants. Defendant deserves a bad review because he did lose the man’s pants.

[@HiddenAgendas]

He did. He paid $150. Dafuq you living under a rock? Watch the full video people making a stupid comment again you clown. lol A new suit pants from Hickey Freeman is $200. The Jacket is $400. Scamming plantiff wanted the shop owner to buy him a new suit.

[@HiddenAgendas]

Maybe he should have BOUGHT new pants and showed the receipt for $150-200. Instead of asking for $600 for a whole new suit. Not sure why kind of scam these yt people trying to pull off. But good thing he didn't win. Cheating lying albinos!

[@punkgaopher]

He can literally go into a suit store and get a replacement pair for a fraction of the cost of a new suit or you can go on eBay and get a replacement. (This episode was taped pre FB marketplace, offerup, etc). Especially for men, finding replacement pants is SUPER easy because all you need to know is the inseam, outseam and waist.

[@adrianknight1406]

I can understand why the plaintiff was upset at the defendant. For them outright lose some mens dress pants to a suit is unacceptable.

[@Jsarmy87124]

[@odetteborg865]

The business owner should carry business insurance with the Care, custody, and Conrtrol rider attached to the policy. The customer should have made a claim against not only the business, but also the insurance carrier.

[@DonziGT230]

Sucks for him, but I’m having a hard time finding any sympathy for the poooor defendant ONLY getting $350 measly dollars for his pants.

$350 is way more than what the pants is worth new. The entire suit is $600. The pants is only $200 if that.

[@karismatimara6197]

I don’t think he should have lost because he doesn’t get that policy until he PICKS UP THE CLOTHES and he NEVER picked the pants up

[@traceyaz125]

Why did Kurt say he lost the case? He won, just for not as much as he wanted.

[@warrenmooney9422]

Everyone in the comments are saying not to do business with this shady dry cleaning business but everyone is forgetting the slimy shady owner was also smart because the name of the dry cleaners was never given so how can anyone boycott a company when you don't know what company it is? All we know it was a dry cleaners; what are you going to do protest every dry cleaner in that city until you find the right one?

[@thefonzkiss]

Why did defendant have to pay court costs, he was offering to pay what ended up being the final judgement anyway and the plaintiff refused it. Sounds like a plaintiff problem not a defendant problem.

[@Pinkdiamond12]

It wasn't a brand new suit, in the first place. It was pants he wore for a year.

[@thefonzkiss]

You got it. And the pants were only $200 to begin with, if it’s a $600 suit. $137 is more than reasonable.

I don't really get how the back of the receipt is where they write the policy. You get a receipt AFTER you've dropped something off. So that means you drop something off and THEN they tell you the policy. That doesn't seem fair to me.
