- January 9, 2014
In episode 70 of the 15th season of Judge Mathis, viewers are treated to intense legal battles as litigants come forward to seek binding resolutions to their disputes. Judge Mathis brings his extensive legal knowledge and practical experience on solving complex legal issues in American courts, offering perfect resolutions that all parties can agree with.
The first case presents a dispute between two neighbors involving a physical assault that resulted in injuries. The plaintiff, in this case, is suing the defendant for attacking him and causing physical harm. The plaintiff alleges that the defendant had always been confrontational and often picks fights for no clear reason. However, a severe altercation occurred when the plaintiff was walking through the defendant's yard without permission, leading to the defendant assaulting him with a baseball bat. The plaintiff suffered multiple injuries and seeks compensation for the financial, emotional and physical damages inflicted.
The defendant disputes the allegations levied against her, maintaining that the plaintiff first verbally assaulted her, leading her to react physically. The defendant claims that she was trying to protect her property after noticing the plaintiff sneaking through her lawn by hitting him with the bat. The defendant argues that she acted in self-defense and that the plaintiff is the one to blame, considering that he was trespassing. The case creates a heated debate between the two parties, leaving Judge Mathis to decipher the facts of the case based on evidence presented.
The second case involves a business dispute, where the plaintiff claims that the defendant breached a contract that they had in place. The plaintiff, in this case, owned a small company that dealt with the production of flyers. The defendant was the business manager for a music band and contacted the plaintiff to produce flyers for the band's upcoming concert. The plaintiff duly outlined the detailed services to be provided, including printing and distribution of flyers to target areas where the band was intending to stage the concert. The plaintiff alleges, however, that after producing the flyers, the defendant refused to pay the agreed amount, citing substandard work.
The plaintiff notes that the quality of work they delivered was faultless, and points out that the failing of the concert had nothing to do with their flyers. The case takes a twist when the defendant produces receipts that indicate that they have already paid for the work. The defendant argues that this is a deliberate scheme by the plaintiff to swindle his money. Judge Mathis has to settle the conflict by looking at all the evidence presented and applying his knowledge of business law.
The third case of the day involves a property disagreement between two former roommates. The plaintiff claims that the defendant owes him unpaid rent, damages to the property, and legal fees after he left the property without proper notice. The plaintiff and the defendant had been living together in an apartment and had agreed to split the rent and utility bills evenly. The plaintiff claims, however, that the defendant failed to pay his share of the rent for several months, even though he promised to do so.
The plaintiff argues that since the defendant was the primary tenant, he was responsible for ensuring rent was paid promptly so that they could continue living in the apartment. The defendant counters that the plaintiff owed him money from a previous agreement and was only seeking payment as a way to set off their money conflicts. The defendant also alleges that the plaintiff caused financial loss by damaging the apartment's property on his way out. The plaintiff denies the allegations and points out that he left the property clean and did not cause any damage.
The case, therefore, presents a classic landlord-tenant dispute, where the parties must prove their innocence and clarify their obligations on the matter. Judge Mathis approaches this in a clear and concise way that offers the parties an opportunity to leave the courtroom with an amicable solution that satisfies everyone.
Overall, Judge Mathis season 15 episode 70 presents itself as a compelling episode filled with engaging legal battles and disputes. Judge Mathis displays his legal expertise, applying his vast knowledge to offer legal guidelines that allow the parties involved to reach a legal resolution. The show relies on its strengths in presenting intricate and often intricate legal conflicts, ultimately resolving them in a way that caters to all parties involved.
