The People's Court Season 17 Episode 106 You Gave My Dog Away!
- March 10, 2014
You Gave My Dog Away! is the 106th episode of the 17th season of The People's Court, a popular American reality courtroom show. The show follows Judge Marilyn Milian as she presides over small claims court cases. In this particular episode, the case in question involves a dispute between two parties over the ownership of a dog.
The plaintiff, a woman named Lisa, claims that the defendant, her ex-boyfriend named Mark, gave away her beloved dog without her permission. Lisa had left the dog in Mark's care while she went on a vacation, but when she returned, Mark told her that he had given the dog away to someone else because he couldn't take care of it anymore.
Lisa says that she was devastated when she found out her dog was gone, and she has been desperately trying to find it ever since. She is now suing Mark for the return of the dog or, if it cannot be returned, for the value of the dog.
Mark, on the other hand, argues that Lisa had abandoned the dog and that he had every right to give it away. He claims that Lisa had not been taking proper care of the dog and that he had told her several times that he was no longer willing to take care of it.
As the two parties present their case in front of Judge Milian, tensions begin to rise. Lisa becomes emotional as she describes her deep love for her dog, while Mark insists that he had the best intentions in giving it away.
Judge Milian listens carefully to both sides and asks several clarifying questions. She also examines the evidence provided by each party, including vet bills and emails exchanged between Lisa and Mark.
After hearing all the facts of the case, Judge Milian delivers her verdict. Without giving any spoilers, it suffices to say that the case is resolved in a way that is both fair and satisfying to both parties.
Throughout the episode, viewers are treated to a glimpse into the inner workings of small claims court, as well as the emotional toll that disputes over pets can take on all parties involved. The show is both entertaining and informative, and leaves viewers with a satisfying sense of closure.
