Judge Mathis Season 23 Episode 29 Episode 29

Judge Mathis is a courtroom-based reality show where retired Michigan circuit court judge Greg Mathis presides over small claims court cases. In season 23 episode 29, Judge Mathis hears three cases.

The first case involves a plaintiff named Sabrina who is suing her ex-boyfriend for breach of contract. Sabrina claims that she allowed her ex-boyfriend, who is a photographer, to use her credit card to purchase a camera for his business. She says that they agreed he would pay her back in monthly installments, but he stopped making payments after a few months. Sabrina is seeking $2,500 in damages. The defendant argues that he did make payments, but they were less than what Sabrina is claiming. He also claims that he didn't use the camera very much because it was defective. Judge Mathis advises the defendant that if he has proof of making partial payments, he should bring them to court. He also questions the validity of the contract, which Sabrina printed from the internet and filled out herself. In the end, Judge Mathis rules in favor of Sabrina and orders the defendant to pay her $2,000 plus court fees.

The second case involves a plaintiff named Jackie who is suing her former friend for the cost of a car repair. Jackie claims that her friend borrowed her car and caused $1,500 worth of damage, but refused to pay for the repair. The defendant argues that Jackie knew about the problems with the car before she loaned it to her and that the damage was caused by a malfunction rather than her driving. She also claims that Jackie threatened to call the police if she didn't return the car immediately. Judge Mathis questions the defendant's story and points out that she did not bring in any evidence to support her claims. He also finds it suspicious that the defendant's boyfriend, who signed the contract for the repair, has the same last name as the defendant, indicating he could be a relative. In the end, Judge Mathis rules in favor of Jackie and orders the defendant to pay her $1,500 plus court fees.

The third case involves a plaintiff named Ray who is suing his former employee for breach of contract. Ray claims that the defendant was performing heavy landscaping work for him and his company, but left the job without giving any notice. He argues that the defendant owes him $5,000 for uncompleted work and lost profits. The defendant admits that he left the job early, but claims that he was not getting paid on time and that Ray was trying to avoid paying him for completed work. He also claims that Ray was verbally abusive towards him and his crew. Judge Mathis advises the defendant that leaving a job without notice is a breach of contract and that he should have brought up any payment concerns before leaving. He also questions the defendant's credibility, as he didn't bring in any evidence to support his claim of non-payment. In the end, Judge Mathis rules in favor of Ray and orders the defendant to pay him $3,000 plus court fees.

Overall, season 23 episode 29 of Judge Mathis follows the same formula as other episodes of the show. Judge Mathis listens to the plaintiffs and defendants, asks questions, and ultimately rules in favor of one party. The cases in this episode are relatively straightforward and do not involve any major surprises or twists. However, the drama between the parties still provides entertainment for viewers.
