The People's Court Season 21 Episode 141 House Sale Scam

  • June 11, 2018

In this episode of The People's Court, season 21 episode 141, the plaintiff is suing the defendant for scamming her out of money during the sale of a house. The plaintiff claims that the defendant lied about certain aspects of the house, including the condition of the roof, the age of the appliances, and the presence of pests. The defendant sold the house to the plaintiff "as is," but the plaintiff argues that the defendant had a duty to disclose any known issues with the property.

The defendant, on the other hand, argues that the plaintiff should have done her due diligence before purchasing the house. He claims that he did not intentionally deceive the plaintiff and that any issues with the house were clearly visible during the walk-through. He also argues that the plaintiff had the opportunity to hire a home inspector, but chose not to do so.

As the case unfolds, Judge Milian must determine who is at fault in this situation. She listens to the testimony of both parties and reviews evidence such as photographs and documents related to the sale of the property. She also questions witnesses, including a home inspector who inspected the house after the sale.

Throughout the episode, tensions run high as both parties become increasingly emotional. The plaintiff becomes frustrated with the defendant's responses, which she perceives as excuses for his dishonesty. The defendant becomes defensive and argues that he had no motive to deceive the plaintiff since he sold the house "as is."

In the end, Judge Milian makes her ruling based on the evidence presented. She takes into account the plaintiff's claims of deception and the defendant's arguments of full disclosure and concludes who is responsible in this case.
