- December 2, 2014
In Hot Bench season 1 episode 95, Firefighter Dreams, Sister Screams; Pay Me for My Stress!, Judge DiMango presides over three cases brought before the bench. In the first case, a man claims that his sister damaged his property and verbally assaulted him in a dispute over her dreams of becoming a firefighter. The man seeks compensation for the damages to his property and emotional distress caused by his sister's behavior.
The second case involves a woman who says her former employer owes her compensation for the stress she experienced while working at a call center. The defendant claims that the plaintiff did not meet the requirements for disability leave and was not entitled to additional payment for stress.
The third case is brought by a man who is seeking compensation for damages to his car caused by the defendant's dog. The defendant claims that the plaintiff's car was already damaged before the incident and that the man is not entitled to any compensation.
Throughout the episode, Judge DiMango and her fellow judges, Judge Tanya Acker and Judge Patricia DiMango, listen to both parties and ask questions to get to the bottom of each case. They provide insightful commentary and challenge the litigants to support their arguments with evidence.
In the first case, the judges must determine whether the sister's behavior was egregious enough to warrant compensation for emotional distress and property damage. In the second case, they must decide whether the plaintiff's stress was work-related and if she is entitled to additional compensation. Finally, in the third case, the judges must determine whether the defendant is responsible for the damages to the plaintiff's car.
As always, Judge DiMango brings her sharp wit and no-nonsense approach to the proceedings, making for an engaging and informative episode of Hot Bench. Viewers will be left on the edge of their seats as they wait to see how these cases are resolved and what the judges have to say on the matter.
