Every time I watch one of these shows the plaintiff takes heat for NOT paying the contract out THEN take it to court. So in this case Judge Milian asked the plaintiff why he paid any money on the day of the install. I just see this as a double standard. If the plaintiff had refused to pay more or the balance in full he would have been painted in a bad light. Which, initially he was. And then the defendant would have been plaintiff instead. The results may have been the same but then the consumer is made out to be the bad guy because he didn't pay the contract. I understand this is a "show" but this show is based on law. I have been very disappointed by many of the "judge shows". I want to person with the law on their side to win not the one that looks good on film.

She could not have been a good judge in real court, not this play play arbitration nonsense they pass off as small claims court. Most of yawll who are watching this dont know, this is not real. Once the contractor breaches the contract, there is not much to argue about. If he wanted his entire amount back, with pain and suffering for the inconvenience, there is nothing she could have done but to give him back his entire money. Now, how do you differ arbitration versus court is, in arbitration, all decisions are final and in court, you will have an option to appeal, even if the decision is to dismiss with prejudice or their is an judgement awarded. In this fake court, the decisions are final and are enforced by a real court, because it will state in the contract that they signed before appearing on the show, that they are now entering into a new contract with the production company to play court. At that point, all parties are bound to the contract that they signed to be on the show along with whatever outcome she decides.
