- November 9, 2022
Judge Mathis is a courtroom reality television show where former district court judge Greg Mathis presides over small claims cases in order to provide a fair and just resolution for both parties involved.
In Season 24 Episode 48, the Judge hears three cases. The first case is between two former roommates who can't seem to agree on the return of a security deposit. The plaintiff claims that they left the apartment exactly how they found it, but the defendant is trying to argue that the plaintiff damaged the unit and therefore, aren't entitled to a full refund. Judge Mathis focuses in on what was stated in the rental agreement and whether or not any evidence can support the defendant's claim.
The second case involves a dispute between a couple and a contractor who failed to complete a renovation project on their home. The plaintiff alleges that they paid the defendant $8,000 upfront for the job, but he never showed up to start the project and never followed up or provided a refund. The contractor attempts to argue that he did accomplish some of the work and has receipts to prove it, but Judge Mathis is skeptical of his excuse for not completing the job and satisfied that the defendant has failed to fulfill his obligations as promised.
The final case of the day centers around a group of long-time friends who are fighting over a borrowed truck. The plaintiff is seeking compensation for damages caused by another friend after borrowing and damaging the truck. However, the defendant argues that the plaintiff should have held the other friend responsible for the damages and not sought compensation from him. The Judge probes the friends for evidence and comes to a ruling that takes into consideration the evidence presented by both parties and the real issue of who can be ultimately held responsible for the damages incurred.
Throughout the episode Judge Mathis engages with both the plaintiffs and defendants, and provides insight into the cases using his years of legal experience and wisdom.
