The People's Court Season 20 Episode 89 You Destroyed My Wedding Dress!

In The People's Court season 20 episode 89, titled "You Destroyed My Wedding Dress!", two parties bring their case of wedding dress destruction before Judge Marilyn Milian. The plaintiff, Heather, claims that the defendant, her former friend Marissa, borrowed her expensive wedding dress and ruined it beyond repair. Heather had offered to let Marissa wear the dress for her own wedding, but upon returning it, Heather found that the dress had multiple tears and stains that could not be fixed.

Marissa admits to wearing the dress as well as spilling wine on it during her wedding reception, but she denies causing any permanent damage. She argues that the dress was not in perfect condition when she received it and that any minor tears or stains were already present. She also claims that Heather had given her permission to wear the dress however she pleased and that she had paid for dry cleaning before returning it.

Heather insists that the damage was not present before Marissa wore the dress and that she never gave her friend permission to do anything that would cause harm to it. She brings in a professional seamstress who examined the dress and confirms that the tears and stains were indeed caused by negligence on Marissa's part.

As the case progresses, Judge Milian challenges both parties to provide evidence to support their claims. She questions Heather on why she would lend out such a valuable item, and also questions Marissa on her carelessness with the dress. During the evidence presentation, Judge Milian ultimately concludes that Marissa is responsible for the damage to the wedding dress, as her actions caused an irrefutable amount of harm.

The verdict is in favor of Heather, awarding her the full amount she requested to have the dress repaired or replaced. Judge Milian admonished Marissa for her recklessness and lack of respect for her friend's property. Ultimately, the case serves as a cautionary tale for borrowers and lenders alike, encouraging both parties to be more cautious when choosing to lend or borrow valuable items.

Overall, The People's Court season 20 episode 89 highlights the importance of responsibility and trust in any relationship, especially when it comes to the borrowed property. The case was a cautionary tale of what can happen when borrowers do not take care of other people's property and the importance of mutual trust in any successful relationship. The episode was filled with emotional moments and Judge Milian's trademark wit and wisdom.
