Tenacious P(laintiff)

Love the P & his brother. Tenacious, educated, polite, & just wanting what he was due.

WoW. Intelligent, well mannered, humble, and even tempered. Rare. Can we clone him? A perfect example of a fine young man. I's dotted. T's crossed. Nailed it.

[@phat59]

I couldn't get the police to take my evidence seriously. They considered it a civil matter, and said my only recourse was small-claims court. So I filed a claim locally, and the tv show must have found my claim via a public-records search. I got an invitation to appear, via mail, out of the blue so I called the producer immediately :)

[@tytaylor8762]

The defendant must have been drinking the night he plowed through the plaintiff's fence and left the scene so he wouldn't get a DWI. The defendant is too old to be living with mommy and daddy, time to kick him out of the next and make him fend for himself. Great detective work and determination on the plaintiff's part.

[@axelfoley20]

This plaintiff is the man! Great work, this guy needs to be hired on as a police investigator, and web designer.

That guy was so fucked he shouldn't have let it go to court. He should've worked out a deal with those guys.

"Landscaping and carpentry". Hell, the defendant should put in a bid on the repair job himself.

this guy needs to be a detective, I've recently lost my skittles...I wonder how much info he can find on where they are

[@sowhatdowop]

The defendant is so screwed. Why did he even bother showing up?

[@JohnKingPDX]

The show pays the losses for you, so his incentive was to appear on the show so he wouldn't have to pay me in small claims court. Otherwise I would have leined on his precious Scout and I would be driving it around town :)

[@humility1st]

[@ripamerica7600]

Nope. That's probably how all these court tv shows operate. It's the incentive that gets the "loser" to agree to appear@@ripamerica7600

@@ripamerica7600 No almost all court cases when the Defendant lose's the show not only pays the loser but pays there hotel and air flight to and fro, have you ever noticed that J,Judy will say would you like to walk back home? some 2000 miles away? because CBS pays all peoples (witnesses) hotel and airfare

Well done, Mr. Plaintiff. Well-presented case for being a small claims matter.

[@phat59]

When I went down to L.A. to tape this episode I tried to get some friends in to sit in the audience for the taping. They made them sit in the back row because all of the audience are paid "actors"...they're somewhat coached as to how to respond/dress/etc. The episodes are taped in 1 or 2 week sprints where they do a number of "cases" back to back all day and then take a month off. So the audience just sits there all day and would therefore show up in multiple episodes.

[@DamiAndJohn]

I'm just a geek who had too much time on my hands, and thought it would be fun to REALLY nail someone on TV; so I made sure I had an airtight case. Though, I did watch a lot of Matlock growing up.

[@NewTreasureHunter]

Plaintiff was awesome. Good, honest, and upstanding guy.

It's almost 17 years later. Where do you think the Plaintiff and the Defendant are right now?

Haha. I (plaintiff) moved just a few miles away about 14 years ago. Now have 2 children. I'm always on the lookout for more neighborhood mysteries to solve. Haven't seen the defendant since!

[@MiracleinStars]

[@MisterRON]

Damn, that guy was prepared to the maxx.

[@phat59]

actually, the show pays all the winnings/losses...that's the incentive that they have to come on the show; you make a fool and get embarrassed, but then your debt is paid. It's all kind of a ruse :)

He did a good job getting his case together. I have one concern, however. He said he went over and placed the fixture into the car and it fit, ok fine, but isn't that tampering with an auto? I thought that should have been addressed but giving the circumstances that defendant didn't have a prayer.
