In this episode of Judge Faith, titled "Misused Money | No Comprendo," two cases are presented before Judge Faith. The first case involves a woman, Maria, who filed a lawsuit against her former employer, a property management company. Maria alleges that the company wrongfully withheld her last paycheck and also misused her 401(k) money by not depositing it for several months. The defendant, represented by their attorney, claims that Maria was not terminated but instead resigned from her position and that they did not withhold her paycheck. Additionally, they claim that the 401(k) deposit delay was due to an external vendor issue and that they eventually deposited the money into Maria's account. Judge Faith analyzes the evidence and testimony from both parties to determine who is responsible for Maria's unpaid wages and the 401(k) deposit delay.
The second case involves a landlord-tenant dispute between a man, Alex, and his former tenant, Miguel. Alex is seeking payment for damages caused to his rental property by Miguel and his roommates. Miguel, who is originally from Mexico and speaks limited English, claims that he paid a deposit but was not aware of the extent of the damages when he moved out. He argues that the landlord is responsible for fixing any damages and that he should not be held liable. Judge Faith hears from both parties and analyzes their evidence, including photographs and receipts, to determine whether Miguel owes compensation for the damages caused during his tenancy.
Throughout the episode, Judge Faith applies her expertise in the law and her courtroom experience to adjudicate these cases in a fair and just manner. She asks questions to clarify the evidence presented and ensures that both parties have an opportunity to make their case. Ultimately, she renders decisions that are based on the facts and the law while also taking into consideration the individual circumstances of each case. Overall, this episode provides an engaging and informative look at the legal system and how it can help resolve disputes between individuals.
