Judge Mathis season 19 episode 68 is focused on delivering justice as usual. The episode opens up with a heated litigation between two former friends over alleged theft of property. The plaintiff, a young female by the name of Rachel, is accusing her former friend, who we come to learn is Samantha, of stealing some of her belongings during her last visit to her apartment.

Rachel claims that after some drinks late into the night, she went to bed without checking if everything was in order. However, the following morning, she realized that some of her stuff was missing, including a silver necklace that she valued deeply. She states that Samantha is the only one who had access to the apartment that night and accuses her of stealing.

On the other hand, Samantha argues that she did not steal anything and that Rachel's accusations are false. She explains that she only came to Rachel's apartment to help her with some errands and stayed the night after having a few drinks. She adds that Rachel is making up stories because she is trying to cut people off and move on with her life.

As the testimonies continue, Judge Mathis listens keenly to the details and even pulls out his traditional book to take notes. The attorneys representing both sides try to bring out the truth from the conflicting accounts of the events. However, the judge keeps having to intervene to keep them in line.

In another case later on in the episode, a distraught single mother of four finds herself on the stand trying to plead her case to the judge. She is appealing for the custody of her children, who were removed from her care and placed with their father after she failed to provide them with proper care.

The mother, whose name the judge later identifies as Mary, tells the heartbreaking story of how she has been struggling to put food on the table for her children after losing her job and facing foreclosure on her home. She states that she did everything she could to keep her children with her, but she just could not make ends meet. In the end, the father was awarded custody, but Mary has been fighting to overturn that judgment.

The father of the children, who is also present in the courtroom, argues that Mary is not fit to take care of the children and that he has been doing a better job of providing for them. He adds that he does not want to deny Mary access to her children but wants to make sure that they are safe and well taken care of. He claims that Mary has a drug problem and that he fears for the children's safety.

As the two discuss the issue, the judge asks them for a solution that could work for both of them. After some back and forth, they eventually agree on shared custody with a detailed plan on how the children will be looked after primarily by the father, but Mary will have access to them and will have to seek professional help to overcome her problems.

Lastly, the episode concludes with a case involving an elderly couple and a contractor who allegedly did shoddy work on their home renovation project. The couple tells the court how they had saved for years to have their dream retirement home and how the contractor they hired stole from them by not completing the work as agreed.

However, the contractor, who is also present, denies the allegations and argues that he did a good job, but the couple failed to pay him fully as per their agreement. He states that he is in the business of making homes look beautiful and that he was not out to steal from an elderly couple.

As the case continues, Judge Mathis keeps a close eye on the arguments and tries to get to the bottom of the issue. After listening to both sides, the judge then delivers his decision, much to the relief or disappointment of the parties involved.

In summary, Judge Mathis season 19 episode 68, much like other episodes, showcases the realities of life in a courtroom. From theft and custody battles to home renovation issues, Judge Mathis delivers justice and keeps the audience captivated as he listens keenly to all the side's stories. The episode is a perfect embodiment of the show and is truly entertaining from start to finish.
