Finally a case on a different topic. I enjoyed this one! I’m tired of hearing about cars and dogs 😩😭

The owner most definitely tried to micro manage the tenants. I strongly suspect there were good veggies he kept too.

Bravo to the plaintiffs. I LOVE locally grown produce and I love going to farmers markets. Not enough people take on this very challenging but worthy career.

Saying that chickens have to be fed 4 times a day is insane. 😂

Sidebar - the plaintiffs are so cool, imagining her tending to the land with a two month old strapped to her is incredible!

That defendant is trying to play the victim. As an elder , he should be ashamed

All I can hear in my head is Judge Judy saying: “NOT BASICALLY!”

I hope the Plaintiffs become successful in their farming. I love it ❤❤

He’s afraid of them 🙄… sir bye

Defendant: You must feed the chickens 4 times a day. Also Defendant: You can only come onto the farm you are renting twice a week.

Whenever you don't want to do something, just say, "I was scared of him/her." It's so easy and manipulative! 🙄

I can't believe no one knows why food tastes better when you grow it yourself. The reason is because the produce you buy at the grocery store was picked way before it was ripe. Whereas, the food you grow yourself you pick when it is ripe so they taste soooo much better.

Finally something other than tenant landlord case ha ha ha ha

Growing vegetables in your garden is better, because of quality, taste, health.

I feel for the plaintiff's. I've been an urban farmer. This was an arrangement that they would have been better off not doing at all. I too had the owner of a potential farm site of mine demand unreasonable things. Once I got wind of his desire to micro manage my business, I ended negotiations. Farming is hard and there are people who will take advantage of you. This dude I was dealing with wanted to bank on my work. And that site was specifically for non-profit community work providing free food to people in need and I was going to be the one doing ALL the work.

If he only allows them on the property 2x a week how does he expect them to water the crops? I do not feel it's unrealistic for them to ask that as a request... now if he actually does it would be another thing. They should have stayed out the lease till the season was over or crops were done to confirm it met their standards. It's very strange

👏 This is a wonderful American Family.... Keep up the amazing work, This is how children should be raised.

I think the plaintiffs would have won if they hadn’t sent the emails to him trying to get him to take care of their crops. That wasn’t part of the deal that he gave them for getting out of the lease.

This is a very unusual case, I don't know farms could be rented either

Harvey has clearly never had a garden grown tomato. The flavor is so robust I can eat them like apples😊 Not to mention, growing your own gives you control over the process and quality.

I love this unique case. I’ll miss PC 😢

Feeding chickens 4 times a day? That's insane. I feed my chickens one time. Give them enough for that day and a little more. Let them roam your property for extra bugs amd other things and they will do great.

I disagree with the verdict. This wasn’t a wild speculative empty promise. It was a modification to the original contract in writing based on tangible assets with value that time was already committed to and assumed some type of return on profit

The word sharecropper comes to mind

I love TPC so much but Harvey’s segment is so cringey and pointless😂🫠🫥lol

I grew up on a farm, really hard work. I actually ran the family farm stand at 13 years old.

Always and forever in fear and scared...smh gimme a break...

I definitely think that his broken word was detrimental to the plaintiffs. The judge has been bothering me lately with her rulings.

Kinda didn’t understand what the lawsuit was about, but it was refreshing to watch something new. When Harvey was asking the question to his audience about why home grown foods was better than store bought food, that lady who had her garden, was so clueless, I mean c’mon, if u don’t know why then why ru growing.

The plaintiff is pretty and she has flawless skin ❤

# 1 reason to grow your own food , is it is FRESHER . Once U have tasted Fresh , U won't want to go back .

It's better cause you don't use pesticides 😊

Farming is hard. In Vegas, backyard farming is more like 'try to keep stuff alive long enough for stuff to grow something', but it's a ton of work no matter what. Interesting case, I definitely wish them the best.

Lovely couple the plaintiffs Simon and Alicia, they have a lovely life. The defendant David Brown is lame, entitled and controling, shame on him, he will never be happy and will always be a problem.

At 3:25 the judge asks the plaintiff 'who was looking after them, your 10 and 13 year old?', that's nosey and rude and has no bearing on the case whatsoever, what's more it is totally acceptable, especially during the day and with the parents there, (the judge would never have dared say this to a caucasian person). The defendant says a lot but never has any proof to back up what he says. The plaintiffs should have won something as he had agreed to let them continue farming yet subsequently made them lose the whole crop...

Wouldn’t the detrimental reliance be them going ahead with leaving only because he promised they could get their crops

I honestly like Harvey’s outside part. It’s interesting to see the public’s perspective on litigation? So many people are clueless. lol “I’M A LAWYER”

Weird that the woman on the street with Harvey couldn’t explain why growing your own produce is better than store-bought. First of all, I don’t use pesticides on my crops. Yes, you can buy “organic” produce in the stores, but who’s to say that what you’re buying is truly organic? I watched an exposé where people at large farmer’s markets were advertising to consumers that what they were selling was fruits and vegetables that they’d grown organically on their own farms, when they were really doing is buying regular produce from the stores, and then labeling them organic, and selling them at a much higher price. You also get to control the variety and size. It also saves money, and is convenient. It is such a great feeling to be cooking lunch or dinner, and be able to step into your own garden for ingredients.

12 minutes fresh😂😂😂 it’s ashame I have to wait for new episodes bc I already seen them all

Never heard of doctrine of emblements. I learned something new! I worked for an ag company though and we would have folks rent land from us for a season so I'm surprised it never came up. I did learn the word Demurrage though. That's the expense you get when your barge takes too long to offload it's cargo at a terminal. We had plenty of those.

Why is fresh farm food better than what is at the store? It is FRESH, not covered in wax, dyes, altered in some way, added hormones, pesticides.... Shall I keep going?

Unfortunately the plaintiffs didn’t win but thankGod for that email bc I’m sure he would’ve said he didn’t agree to it had it been a verbal agreement.

Doug just has to rub it in 😂 I hate him

Basically is the like. Filler words .

Mr micro manager put this whole situation in the muck heap. Good luck to these plaintiffs who clearly know their stuff, on their new farm.

no idea what a vegetable looks like unless it's been sauteed 😭🤣

When there's a case that involves Black and White Americans, I instantly get upset when the White litigant says, "I was afraid for my life; they were always yelling at me and agggressive." 🙄 Like BFFR!

The defendant is such a dbag. “I was so afraid of them, I empathize with abuse victims now..” 🙄

Disagree with judge on this one.

She didn't say, "Thank you Douglas" 😭😭😭

The defendant looks like the farmer from the 1989 movie pet cemetery

There was an agreement made and it should be honored. If you're only allowing them two days to visit their crops then watering them would be automatic.

Lol! JM takes a recess, comes back & explains in lamans terms why she's ruling the way she is. Harvey does a wrap-up outside & says "let me explain what the judge means" ...and in lamans terms says exactly what she said 😂

Old Saybrook native. Mr. Brown is a highly intelligent, well-educated man devoted to an organic lifestyle. They could have leaned allot from him if they took the time.

I'm curious why they breached in the first place. Feeding chickens once a day instead of four times is a petty reason. Although they have certain rights to the fruits of their labor, this seems like it would complicate things greatly for them.

They didn’t really start!!!

the defendant sounds like a liar right off the bat

I was waiting for her to say, thank you, Douglas

Harvey you are so annoying 😂

When you grow your own vegetables, you know how they truly look, truly taste and they are not soaked in chemicals.

Brilliant stuff growing ur own an it’s fun to harvest all that hard work pays off I really hope the plaintiffs do well in their new career. I just love growing my own veggie an fruits at my Alloment but I don’t sell I just give away to the old people and family in need of food - potatoes tomatoes carrots green beans okra cantaloupe melons herbs pumpkins beetroot Brussel sprouts Onions Garlic Cucumbers raspberries strawberries apples . Am so proud. Plus growing in big pots is easygoing too - Bravo ❤ 😂

I always try and grow tomatoes and lettuce 🍅 and we grew courgettes this year ❤ I'm not very confident with growing winter vegetables but i guess i should try . We grew up with a vegetable garden 🥒🥬🥦🥔🥕🌽

Everyone better learn to farm. Lean times are here with worse to come.

Chickens should be fed twice a day in the morning and night if you are feeding them rations and not allowing them to feed all day

Wow!!! They were surely taking his $$$ every month. These owners are punks.

This whole case is weird...the most ,best thing about the organic farming is how everyone gets along nice 🙂

Interesting case

WHOA! how big do you think chickens' stomachs are? You have to feed them more than once a day!!

This guy's name is Farmer Brown 😂

Here I thought Harvey was smart, then he goes and asks a really stupid question and admitted he doesn't know the difference between home grown and store bought!? Oh Harvey, Harvey, Harvey! CLEARLY he has never had home grown crops. 😲😲😲Poor sheltered guy🤣🤣🤣

We used to have a good farmer's market at the south end of town and it was awesome until the vendors got greedy. Then the prices went through the roof and meanwhile, the local supermarket was selling " Peak of the Market " veggies which were grown on local farms, so it ended up that you could get the same veggies at the store for way the hell cheaper than at the farmer's market. I'm still pissed about that because their love of money ruined a good thing.

The defendant sounds like a nutcase. Good luck to them.

Home grown vegetables taste so much better than the ones you purchase in the store.

Most people are looked up to when growing food and most will buy from a farmer than a grocery store, the defendant most likey was hearing so much praise for the plaintiffs and what they were doing that he was plain jealous!!

The takeaway is: farming's hard

Judge did those folks wrong as he did. They had an email that bound him into an agreement then he changed up after. She was gonna find some way to make that ole goat win he owed them folks for the crops that he claimed was weeds but at the end he said it was ALMOST nothing.

First time I didn’t hear her say “ thank you Douglas “

The owner is a real piece of work. He made it hard a lot for these new farmers

farmers are the most important people on earth . without them we all die of starvation .

I don’t see how she upholds the emails on the defendants counter but not the plantifds

When the defandant started exaggerating his interactions with the plaintiffs, I already knew he was lying. Without a shred of evidence, he insinuated that they were aggressive which caused him to be afraid or concerned, and we all know what that means.

Here before all the comments. I’ll be back in an hour 😂😂

Detrimental reliance is their farming and production to make money.

Brown is an old hippie😂

This happened to us I guess it’s a common crime

Interesting case..

I like the farming couple. I am in Bloomfield CT and I home school my boys and we have organic farm and we live off grid. If these coule read this, let's network, i friends in Meriden, new London, Bozrah etc who are living off grid and farming. I grow food for personal consumption, but lately the land yeild more than what i can consume, hence my need to build a stall near my house and sell extra food

Harvey acts so oblivious sometimes. Maybe because when you grow yourself, you know the vegetables are free of pesticides and GMOs instead of having to pay extra at the grocery store for GMOs free food.

Doug is too damn real and i love it!!!😂😂❤❤❤😂😂😂❤

Plaintiffs are kind and sympathetic to nature and have an easy going soul, something the defendant does not have. Its like people killing just to kill and not to feed.

Funny, I would think the head of TMZ would be an expert in grade A manure! 🤭😋

Good case

The defendant is overly dramatic and a complete micromanager

She didn’t say “thankkk you Douglas” 😢

This is the first case where she doesn't say "Thannk youuu Douglass".

If you want to be a farmer then you need to inform your self on the basics, like how many times a day you need to feed chickens. Also, if you plant crops you need to watch them grow to learn what works and what doesn't. That way you'll know what works as a contract and what doesn't and what you are responsible for.

It's interesting that the average person doesn't thank Coast Guards for their service. They're a part of the military, too.

THE WEIRD ASSSS DEFENDANT I BELIEVE THAT HE WAS OVER EXAGGERATING ....GOOD CALL JUDGE THE NERVE OF THEM SUING

This judge allows people to stray from the point. They also use their feelings and hearsay.

Defendant: a jealous micromanager.
