Judge Judy Season 17 Episode 169 Money Madness | Truck Collusion
- March 8, 2013
As Judge Judy presides over season 17, episode 169, titled "Money Madness | Truck Collusion," tensions are high as two separate cases unfold in the courtroom. The first case centers around a landlord-tenant dispute where the tenant allegedly owes over eight thousand dollars in back rent and damages. While the tenant claims to have made the necessary repairs, the landlord maintains that the space was not returned in the same condition as when it was first rented. Judge Judy listens carefully to both sides, even grilling the landlord about certain aspects of the property, before ultimately rendering a decision.
The second case is a bit more complicated, involving a now-dissolved business partnership between two former friends. The plaintiff asserts that the defendant took advantage of their relationship and conspired with another individual to cut him out of profits from a trucking business they started together. The plaintiff claims that he invested over two-hundred thousand dollars into the venture and was promised a percentage of profits in return. The defendant argues that he did not defraud the plaintiff and that they had agreed to a base salary.
As the case unfolds, Judge Judy inspects several pieces of evidence, including a contract and bank statements. She demands clarity from both parties about certain details regarding the business deal and deliberates on whether the plaintiff is owed any additional funds. However, the case takes an unexpected turn when the defendant accuses the plaintiff of orchestrating a strange and potentially dangerous incident.
Judge Judy is not swayed by any theatrics and maintains control of the courtroom, vowing to get to the truth of the matter. Ultimately, she brings the case to a close with a fair and just ruling. In "Money Madness | Truck Collusion," viewers witness Judge Judy's trademark tough-but-fair approach as she navigates these two unique legal battles.
