Judge Judy Season 17 Episode 205 Road Rage | Ex-Lovers' Car Fight
- April 29, 2013
In season 17, episode 205 of Judge Judy, entitled "Road Rage | Ex-Lovers' Car Fight," tensions run high in the courtroom as two separate cases involving incidents on the road and in the car come before Judge Judy.
In the first case, two drivers - one of them an off-duty police officer - come to court after a road rage incident in which the officer allegedly pulled the other driver over and threatened him. The plaintiff claims that the officer used his authority as a law enforcement officer to intimidate him and instill fear, while the defendant maintains that he simply acted in self-defense. As Judge Judy hears the details of the case and examines the evidence presented, she attempts to unravel the truth behind the conflicting stories.
Meanwhile, in the second case, a couple who used to be in a romantic relationship are brought to court by the woman's ex-boyfriend after an incident involving her car. According to the plaintiff, he purchased a car for his former girlfriend while they were still together and put the car in his name, but she eventually took possession of it after their breakup and refused to return it to him. Additionally, the plaintiff claims that the defendant damaged the car during an altercation by smashing the windshield with a rock. The defendant, however, argues that the car was always intended to be a gift to her and that the plaintiff is simply trying to get it back out of spite. As Judge Judy listens to both sides and examines the evidence, she tries to determine the true ownership of the car and assign responsibility for any damages caused.
As always, Judge Judy brings her trademark no-nonsense approach to the proceedings, cutting through the emotion and drama to get to the heart of the legal issues at hand. With her sharp intellect and unerring ability to detect falsehood, she works to uncover the truth and mete out justice according to the law. By the end of the episode, the audience will have witnessed two compelling cases that showcase the intricacies of our legal system and the skill of one of its most respected judges.
