Same 😅

SAME

This is me every day 😂

I’m doing just that right now

Me too😂

Using single bunk beds and cramming them in.

bunch of bunk beds i’m thinking since it was a halfway house.

Bunks

My sister was in a half way home and it was 2 women per room...it was a 3 bed room tho...12 ppl seems excessive 😅

​@@msmee0079 was she in the south.. some homes have space. This in alabama.. i worked in group homes that held 18 20 24 clients

😂😂😂😂😂 you petty ash

@@john.jai.sullivan lmao @ your comment

@@gigibali 😂🤣😂😂🤣😂

and they control every move you make 🤣 I'll rather sober up on the streets

That’s actually very common in halfway houses. I stayed in one after rehab, 2 story and we had 12. 4 bunks in each room. It was a come-up from both the rehab and jail 💁🏼‍♂️

Why? If one doesn't go into business to make a profit, why go into it at all?

I feel like JJ presented that as all profit. Surely the defendant had other costs in addition to the rent? 12 people taking a shower everyday, and other utilities would be big costs.

Water, electricity, maintenance, staff….other expenses that runs a business.

​@briel7904 morals. It's a free country and she cna do whatever she wants. But sometimes things go into a gray zone; I respect people who work hard to become skilled docs or mechanics. Not so much for landlords.

@haynejonston7095 and you're fully entitled to your opinion. However, skilled labour isn't the only one deserving of respect. Nor are docs and mechanics the only professions. Not everyone can own a home so landlords are an essential part of the fabric of society.

Are you surprised?

Maybe started off as charity then she got greedy. Money hungry. Very sad possibility. 💔

Unfortunate 😔 but we can't be surprised, can we? Everybody is hustling it feels

​@@smartwatchonplutoConsidering most people on this show are con artists... Not surprising at all

Why shouldn't she come up with a way to make an income ? Maybe you'd be happier if she ended up on the streets with all the other women ...what's wrong with you ?

most landlords write in there lease it's for single families only or so

it was a whore house who we kidding

Called a con within, for the defendant was on a rent to own lease and took advantage of those she was supposed to be helping.

She made a huge profit.

It is a crazy margin but I’d assume that pays for things like food, utilities, hopefully counselors, maybe increased home insurance. I just can’t imagine a house that rents for $800 a month being able to hold 12 people! How big is this place??

I don't see an issue with her making profit lol, if they are willing to pay 400 a month that's their business. Clearly she was treating them good. After she leased the place she could do whatever she want and charge whatever she want. I wouldn't say she's conning anybody. She was smart to upcharge.

@@LoveByNicole how do you know they were treated well? They could’ve stayed out of desperation from homelessness.

Because she illegally used a residential area as a commercial for-profit business, likely under the guise of being a charity. Further, she leased the home from the Plaintiff, and I can almost guarantee that he had no idea she was sub-leasing it. A normal family causes some wear and tear to a home, requiring semi-regular maintenance, but imagine the damages done by 12 women all crammed in there, some of which likely have drug or mental health issues. Later the Defendant even tries to explain she didn't pay rent because the home became so damaged. Like, of course it had damages, you crammed a dozen women in there girl!

I'm just confused about the details of this halfway house. The rent is 800 a month but can fit up to 12 people? Calls into question the conditions of this place. Also it doesn't sound like she had permission to be doing that to begin with.

@@aartadventurethat’s not illegal. Such housing does not require zoning. They are exempt from that requirement.

@@justcallmeteacup4711bunk beds. You must not have ever seen these houses. It’s just like halfway houses when people are coming out of prison. You get a bunk. That’s it. That’s all.

​@@whosaidthat9265 It is illegal to rent out a house when you're not the owner. It is also illegal to mark up rent to sublet

Cause money 😂

Would you prefer the story to be about how she couldn't come up with any ideas how to not end up on the street with all the other women ?

No way I believe she makes $4,000 in profit because the power and electric bill for that many people are likely very high. I have paid $300 for my summer and winter power bills with just two people. All the showers and laundry would make the water bill high too. I’m guessing she also buys food and have a second person on staff.

You weren't paying attention. That never happened. It was simply something they discussed. No agreement was reached or signed. As JJ very clearly says, "Well that didn't happen." So there was no rent-to-own. It was simply a standard lease agreement. Yes, you're right she should still have been paying rent, but the repairs in this instance are the responsibility of the landlord, the owner.

It depends, cuz the leasing to own never happened. But she can stop paying rent if the condition of her home is not livable. However she will have to put that in a work order. Like “this is my third time reaching out to you guys for the leak in my ceiling and in result of it not being fixed , I will be withholding rent until my problem is fixed”

See Part 2.

Yeah, my friend did a rental own and basically the person told her that she is responsible for anything that gets damaged. If it’s like a furnace that goes out she’s responsible for it and it said in her contract that like I said if the furnace breaks she hast to pay for it and she can’t just sit there and not pay rent to the person That still owned the rent to own and it does say also in her contract that if she doesn’t pay her monthly bill to that person for the rent to own, they can kick her out and keep all the money she’s paid into trying to own it.

@@jordanshannon6001 I don’t know if you have to put it in the contract or if it’s just a known thing but my friend did a rent to own and in her contract it states that she is responsible for any repairs or anything that breaks so if the furnace goes out, she is responsible to pay for a new furnace or a used furnace whatever and she cannot just sit there and not pay the owner because if she doesn’t, it also states in the contract that if she doesn’t obviously pay rent, even if something is broken that person can kick her out and keep all her money that she’s put towards owning it

Probably girls

😬🙄

Depending on what she does with the revenue it can be excused. If it goes into a 501 C3 for aiding women i have no issue

See Part 2.

Yeah if I ever come into possession of multiple properties, I'm just selling. No renting, no Air BnB, nada. Too much of a headache.

My parents owned a rental home when I was a teenager and I remember they had a huge long ordeal with squatters, the home was destroyed, sued the tenants. I will never forget the huge financial loss they experienced and because of that I will never EVER deal in rental properties.

It happens but my parents owned about 7 homes… and even with the few tenants in their lives that were nightmares there were some good ones… once you have a good tenant. You keep them.

@Deborah Asher, guess you do not listen very well, this was a rent to own situation and the defendant sign the lease of the rent to own agreement, she was responsible for the repairs of the house, not the plaintiff, nor the people she was helping.

​@@trekgirl65Rent to own aside, if the tenant didn't fulfill her end of the contract, it voids the contract.

You must have never hit the bottom. This was a saving Grace for me and a few other young women. It beat being homeless (literally) and jail…oh and the other being raped few times a week. But nothing too much I guess.

@@WWambition no I completely understand the importance of a house like this, and yes i have been down before. But I just think the amount that she was charging, literally HALF of HER TOTAL rent per each woman out of 12, was incredibly high.

What are you expecting her to charge?

@@jeannethompson4048 I dont have expectations for anyone on a reality tv court show. 😒 but I wouldnt really sit there and praise this woman for helping other women when shes charging 50% of her entire rent to 12 diff women a month on top of all of the subsidies and government assistance shes recieving. I mean, theres a reason JJ didnt award her any more money, too, hah. Like she said, she was making $4000 a month. That's a pretty nice sum for someone who's "just helping women."

No but you look like one in wig very Caitlyn Jenner 😆😆😆😆😆

it was in 2016...

dont you mean until HE spoke? haha.

🤣🤣🤣

For me it was when JJ said ‘did damages to a house she was renting’ 😂. She hadn’t said anything yet.

Me too😂😂

"It"

Halfway and rehab houses are very clean and organized. The rules and house policies insure tenants stay on treatment and/or counseling track and participate in the running, cleaning, cooking in the home. Better than any tent on the street. These tenants are the lucky ones. They are TRYING to improve.

yea,his "job" is so hard..... i can see why JJ didnt take him on her new show which sucked anyway....so he was better off...

I agree with you…maybe that’s why JJ didn’t ask him to work with her on her new show

I agree. He always looks agitated and he never keeps the litigants in line when they start yelling and hollering.

He did not, he loved his job.

He only does what hes supposed to do lmao. Hes not a real bailiff, at least not on this show. All he is is a bit of comic relief and basically a "legal butler" 😂. He just grabs papers from litigants and hands them to judge Judy and back. He literally has the easiest job ever, and I'm sure he made BANK doin it. I seriously doubt theres any "contempt" 😂😂😂.

I read he made 1 million a year on the show but not sure it was accurate . The new guy has a bit more pep in his step

😂😂The justice system is not ready for her.

I bet you look horrible 😂

The love of money is...

@@carolcasey5441People always get that Bible verse wrong. Money in and of itself isn’t evil.

Kkkracker?😮

He or she or 🙄

She paid july and didnt pay 17 days of august....its honestly not that serious

Rent to own is not government, that is an agreement between the property owner and the tenant on agreeing the tenant will rent to own and will be responsible for the repairs inside the dwelling. Not the landlord.

@@trekgirl65 Again, I picked you up on this previously - you didn't listen and weren't paying attention. That never happened, it was simply something they discussed, but the document was never signed. "If she agreed to rent for 7 years, etc." She did not end up agreeing to rent for 7 years. In fact, she'd never seen the document he produced (very difficult to enforce a 1 sided "contract"). As JJ herself clearly says at 4:05 "Well, that didn't happen."

​@LisaSoulLevelHealing It's not that serious until it's YOUR property and it's you not getting paid.

JJ has had plenty of both sides being scammers.... shame.

They stay racist

There are none Card invalid

The property wasn't zoned for commercial use. That was the lie.

Are you saying that because she’s black???

Uh, its 17 days of rent she fidnt pay lol. Relax klan memeber with your stereotypes lol.

@@TheDondon14 What makes you think her skin color is relevant to whether or not she's a scammer? Judge Judy has thieves of all colors and creeds on her show. Take a chill pill, sugar.

​@feverspell right here they go tryna pull the race card. They believe all that aren't white are innocent. But if we're white we're the bad guys. It's crazy what the world has become 🤣

You haven’t even seen part 2 and already making judgment on the defendant maybe get all your facts before judging people but that’s what you no lip people love to do when it’s black people and yes I’m using the race card I don’t care 🤷🏾‍♀️

@@jazzyj6640 not a "her". glad she lost.

@kyoto32001 aww, I hope you feel better. ❤️

If you think she's anti landlord then you've clearly haven't seen enough of her episodes.

No she isn’t. She’s anti-slum lords who want to renovate on the dime of tenants over wear and tear. If there’s legit claims and evidence provided she’s more than happy to oblige. She even complimented a few well organized landlords.

She was on the rent to own lease and forgot to read the big details that was her responsibility, like keeping the inside of the house in good repair. And to pay the rent on time every month. She knew she was in for it. Rent to own, is not the same as a regular rental.

I know what you’re saying. My parents owned an apartment building and heard my entire childhood how terrible it was. People moving out in the middle of the night owing months of rent, unbelievably nasty bathrooms, holes in the walls, stealing lightbulbs out of the hallway fixtures because they were too cheap to buy their own. I wouldn’t be a rental landlord if you gave me the property for free.

Girl chill. It takes time to upload 💀 you new here ?
