Judge Mathis is a nationally syndicated court show featuring retired Michigan judge Greg Mathis presiding over small claims disputes and other legal issues. Season 20 episode 91 follows this format, with Judge Mathis hearing six cases over the course of the episode.
In the first case, a woman claims that her former friend borrowed her wedding dress and then damaged it beyond repair before returning it. The defendant argues that the damage was already present and accuses the plaintiff of lending her a dress that didn't fit properly. Judge Mathis hears both sides and ultimately rules in favor of the plaintiff, awarding her the full amount she asked for.
The second case involves a dispute over rent payments. The plaintiff claims that the defendant failed to pay rent for several months while living with her and that she was forced to evict him. The defendant argues that he was promised a job by the plaintiff and that the unpaid rent was actually payment for his work. Judge Mathis questions both parties closely and determines that the defendant did in fact owe rent, awarding the plaintiff the full amount she requested.
Case number three centers around a dispute over a car. The plaintiff claims to have sold a car to the defendant but never received payment, while the defendant argues that the two had a verbal agreement to trade the car for another vehicle. Judge Mathis examines the evidence presented by both parties and ultimately rules in favor of the plaintiff, awarding her the amount she asked for plus interest.
The fourth case concerns a broken lease. The plaintiff claims that the defendant broke their lease early and left her with unpaid rent and legal fees. The defendant argues that the plaintiff breached the lease by failing to fix a leak in the roof. Judge Mathis listens carefully to both sides and ultimately rules in favor of the plaintiff, awarding her the full amount requested plus legal fees.
In the fifth case, a woman sues her ex-boyfriend for the cost of a car repair. The defendant argues that he shouldn't have to pay because the plaintiff didn't give him an accurate estimate of the repair costs. Judge Mathis questions both parties and ultimately rules in favor of the plaintiff, awarding her the cost of the repair plus interest.
The final case of the episode centers around a dispute over a loan. The plaintiff claims to have lent the defendant $3,500 to help him pay for a car, but the defendant argues that the money was a gift and that he never agreed to repay it. Judge Mathis examines the evidence and ultimately rules in favor of the plaintiff, ordering the defendant to repay the loan with interest.
Throughout the episode, Judge Mathis offers his trademark blend of humor, tough love, and no-nonsense guidance. He asks pointed questions, offers advice to the litigants, and ultimately makes fair and just rulings based on the evidence presented.
