The judges must determine who is responsible for the damages and whether there is enough evidence to support the plaintiff's claim.
The second case centers around a dispute between two neighbors over the use of a shared driveway. The plaintiff claims that the defendant is blocking the driveway and preventing him from accessing his property. The defendant argues that he has the right to use the driveway and is not blocking the plaintiff's access. The judges must decide whether the defendant is in violation of any rules or regulations, and if so, what actions must be taken to remedy the situation.
In the third and final case, a woman is suing her ex-boyfriend for damages to her car after he crashed it while driving under the influence. The defendant admits to driving under the influence but claims that he is not responsible for the damages because he was not at fault for the accident. The plaintiff argues that the defendant's recklessness and negligence caused the accident and resulting damages. The judges must determine whether the defendant's actions were the direct cause of the damages and decide on an appropriate amount of compensation for the plaintiff.
Throughout the episode, the judges use their legal knowledge and experience to ask probing questions, analyze evidence, and ultimately deliver a verdict in each case.
