This defendant reminds me of some of these delivery companies who claim they "attempted" a delivery but never rang the doorbell or knocked.

The defendant is a lousy con man!

He’s so arrogant and he has the wife in check! A whole year?!! Really?!!

That's a little game he plays to collect deposits. If the car wasn't there, if would have been because "the sun was hitting the roof at the wrong angle".

So before she sued him he was trying to negotiate how much she owed him for his 'time', yet he had spent NO TIME doing anything, she offered him $50 and he turned her down, now he's realising that was better than the big fat zero he got in court ha ha ha. I don't believe for a second he came by because he would have started unloading the equipment while waiting for her to come home to remove the car but since he was never even there, that's why he never phoned her to ask her to remove the car...

"I'm a good guy, trust me" 🤣 you cant make this shit up!

If there’s a car in the drive way, there’s someone in the house. Knock and ask them to move the car!

what does a car in the driveway have to do with anything. just knock on the door and ask them to move the car. but how is the wife and him are saying that he's back when he said he had other people doing the job. he said they called him and said a car is in the driveway, so where is the me coming home thing at

Can you remind me of Rodney Dangerfield. No respect!!😂😂😂

Outrageous! She should have never, ever parked in the driveway forever as long as there was a possibility that he could maybe possibly sort of show up sometime. It's completely normal to pay someone to do a big job and then not be around on a scheduled date. He clearly deserved to be paid to be an irrational jack*ss. 👍

I'm still not sure how the defendant thought he should keep the money. Lol. Lazy.

She nailed him. If he showed up expecting to complete a roof he isn't just leaving with no effort

A parked car prevented work? How flimsy is that.

The guy's clearly a liar, any doubt about that left when he had his wife testify.

It's the case of "fiddling around on a roof job". 😂

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't people who are working on your home knock and let you know they are there?? Even PG&E knocks and says we are working in your yard and its their damn equipment.

All he had to do was CALL HER or ASK HER TO MOVE THE CAR just like the judge said!!!

When he says trust me, instantaneously know he's not trustworthy.

The defendant is full of excuses, excuses that lasted a whole year. Even if he did make a specific appt (which he can't really prove he made) all he or his crew needed to do was to get off their butts and go knock on the door to have the car moved. And he has some nerve at rejecting her offer letting him keep $50 for his time, but to return the rest of the money, considering he did nothing. Terrible way to treat his customer.

Not that I even belive the defendant, but there was a car in her driveway, how hard would it be to pull up behind the car, knock on the door and say “hey I’m here for the roof, can someone move the car so I can put the materials in the driveway” what a lousy excuse

I have been a repair technician for 15 years and I cannot count the number of times the owner’s son or daughter was supposed to let me in but never answered the door. No matter now many door bell rings or how hard I knocked they couldn’t hear me through the loud music or the headphones or the pillow. It is completely believable his guys knocked and couldn’t get anyone. What is not believable is how unprofessional this guy is in the scheduling process and business practices and still be in business.

Been a roofer for a few companies, you could have your roof replaced with snow already on your roof. There being a car wont matter you try and see if it can be moved but placing a few toe boards across the section and you hand clear it as you go. Even having to walk the materials too the roof by ladder is always do able. Bottom line this guy is nothing but excuses!! 😊

Yeah, people are always paying contractors not to do work. This guy is full of crap. My contractor put the materials on my lawn.

what a country??? what marvelous country does he come from??? Only in America can you get away with expecting to keep someone's money for nothing. Back to Sicily with you, my man...

I had my roof done, and we only had parking in the back- without a walkway- that’s bizarre

I love the wife’s testimony! Totally. Absolutely. Believable!

I love these macho BONEHEADS who think it’s a good idea to come into court telling the judge what she should be doing. This guy is so freakin annoying.

Amazing testimony by the defendant's wife 😂😂😂

He got his money honey. He was done.

I was a production manager for a roofing and siding company. This is what happens when general contractors use subcontractors. The subcontractors could care less about customer service as long as they get more work. Before I got there, there was a load of these types of miscommunications. I threatened the crews that I will stop giving them jobs before the one they have is done and confirmed. I threatened the material company that we will go elsewhere if they do not give me a delivery window so that I can communicate with the customers. It's not rocket science. I just asked myself, "what would I want as a customer..."

Never get roofers that are not licensed and never get the job done.

8:20 Yea, don't talk over her in mid-sentence, you know what she does all the time!

I LOVE when she checks ppl for talking over her EVERY TIME. B/c ppl have a huge habitat of doing that and it’s so fvcking rude & disrespectful

If the car was the issue when he showed up, why didn't he just call her and say he is there and need someone to move the car

Doug: Pretty sure you could have worked it out... Err, she tried. The dude was eluding her and most likely lying about the details. Absolutely no way you would not knock or call, or do both, then leave a voicemail, text AND a note on the door to prove you were, indeed, actually there!!!

The defendant’s excuse for not roofing was ridiculous! My ex was a roofer, and they didn’t let anything get in the way of getting the job done. Something so simple as knocking on a door to get someone to move a car is not a viable excuse!

The same way he claims he went and knocked on the door and the son & daughter was there he could've told them to tell their mother that the car needed to be moved for him to do the work 😒 a hustler

This defendant is a creep.😮

Weather does not have a huge bearing on roofing, people think it sets better in Warmer temps but thats not really proven.

Omg his purple shirt is gaping open 😂

he should have taken the 50 bucks for gas going there twice and then gave her back 650 when she offered it , but now he has to give her back the whole 700 plus court costs .

Rodney Dangerfield a look alike but this guy really gets no respect 😂

I want to scam the poor lady out of her $700 and used her son’s car as an excuse 😂😂😂

A friend? He's a scammer. He wanted to make any excuse not to have to do her roof. "My time is worth more than $50"😂😂😂

Scam artist…. He , obviously, is a narcissist.

Lady already had $700 invested to get her roof done. If the contractor gave her a date and told her she needed the car out of the driveway, she would've had the car moved. On the flipside, a contractor wanting to make money isn't going to set aside an entire day to do a roof, then send his crew home when the customer has a car in the driveway. The contractor would be calling the customer. Not only would the contractor be losing out on the rest of the money for the completed job, but they'd be losing out on money from another job they could be doing that day, plus wages for the employees that went there to do the roof. Guy is a joke.

My very first time with a contractor, a guy who did stucco said he could have my house done in a week. 3 god dam months later I'm calling him on the phone to find out where the hell he is and why he's not doing my house. I've since learned about the ' time is of the essence ' contract clause and those guys will never bloody well do that to me again. Once is too much.

That guy is terrible. No one should EVER work with him EVER. His whole argument is just stupid.

He got too much work, so hers was not important for him.

If he didn't start the job on the first appointment, i would've got my deposit back.

It's always funny when a guy loses a case. There's always this moment when they lose where there's a pause and you just know they're calling her a bitch in their heads.

When the defendant supposedly knocked on her door at 7:30pm, and the son and daughter answered, instead of just saying have your mom call me. Why didn't he say, keep your car out of the driveway this week. So I can do the roof...I don't believe anything he said.

Typical repair person. Either a scammer or a substandard worker.

That roofer is on roofies 😜

come on Rachel Rey move ur car lol

The defendant is started with the wrong foot with the judge, I can tell you he's going to lose because he has an attitude and you don't do that in front of the judge

The defendant had attitude right from the start. We all knew how it was going to go! lol

Here’s the problem with even the judges responses. He has to prove that he let her know her cars were in the driveway when he tried to complete the roof. A person has a right to park their cars in their driveway when they don’t know when a person performing services on their homes are coming to perform said services. To lecture the women on her “cars” being in the front yard is ridiculous when he didn’t prove he told her they were coming that day or even showed up. The biggest problem is, he could have sent her a text message to schedule a time and make sure the cars, if they were really in the driveway, are moved. The guy is lying like most contractors because he didn’t have the time to complete the roof due to over booking.

Imagine showing up one time, a car is there and simply leaving without making an appt. Then say "aaah I'll try again in a month" Randomly shows up "omg a car in the driveway, I'm done, keeping her money" Unreal

It takes less than 5 mins to move a car...lame excuse

Good call, judge.Guy was a real jerk

57 seconds in I believe she is owed

Nobody could just go up to the door and tell her to move the car.

Hes a shyster

He deserves something for his time.

Is there a law preventing him from knocking on the door and say "can you move that car"?

I'm so glad Judge Milian gave the Defendant hell to have respect by not talking over her.

Why didnt she tell her son to stop parking the car in the way😒 she is lying.

The mal thing we learned from this is that... despite having a car, the son is always at home.

Lazy Contractor, Nothing but Excuses lol..

Why would you pay someone without having a set time to come and do something.....

Please you could have texted her about the car! Text her back if she texting you that she at work test her back.

and so what would be the basis for keeping the money? He didn't do any work

I called harr , this isn’t the west coast huh ?

Why is this roof guy not on the job site? My guy, My Guy..the boss shoild on the job.

So let me get this straight him and his associate goes to the house, rings the doorbell knock on the door whatever the case may be. See the son, daughter and the alleged son's car that's in the way and instead telling the son, "hey if you can give your mom this message and if you can do me a favor. I'm coming on this day at this time could you move your car out the driveway so we can put the roofing material in the driveway."

It’s her sons car. Give roofer sons or house phone number. The communication with every single party was super lame. Roofer depending on teenagers to deliver messages is silly. Sons in shower etc Wait 20min start knocking on door again. Calling her at work is ridiculous especially “hey call me back”

HE DO ALOT OF ROUND ABOUT TALKING

Why did this take from July to March? Unbelievable.

How dare she allow her son to park in her driveway during the year that defendant might decide to show up one day!! Seriously though, defendant is incredibly rude and obnoxious. He had a lot of nerve refusing to return her money when he didn't do a whit of work for a YEAR. Here's a tip: KNOCK ON THE DOOR IF THERE'S A CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY. Bunch of lazyass bums.

Here's an idea. Tell the son to NOT PARK in the driveway for the next ( time? } Or set up a method for contact which the son is involved in. He cannot have been sleeping every time. Very inefficient all round. Maybe she didn't have the money.

Ma boi look like Rodney Dangerfield 😂

Decades ago we were working on a Paving crew. There was a lady that didn't want to move her car we told her no worries we'll just slip the payment under your car To this day don't know if she got the sarcasm or not. Same thing here-all she had to do was negotiate a week the roofer guy would be available "the car will be out of the driveway all this week", come when you get the materials together.

He got in over his head

This is laziness if there is a car on the drive way just know I the door and call the lady or get the older child if possible to move the car and what about weekend or the next day must it take a whole year . Hahahaha

Never have I seen a judge scream at a layperson litigant because they want to show evidence. Fair enough if he is rude, belligerent or uncooperative but not because he is trying to prove his point. I would rather go to a proper court win or lose. I bet her 'retirement' as judge was so swift because of that exact attitude flaw. He husband was a very successful judge who presided over major cases and his demeanour is very different

I CANNOT STAND THIS JUDGE 😢 NO WONDER SHOW GOT CANCELLED. SHE THINKS SHE'S JUDGE JUDY😮😢😢

This clown gave her too low a price and decided he was not going to do it.

Too bad seeing Rodney Dangerfield in court.

I guess. The question is give her money back all of it you did nothing

He wanted to come when it was convenient for him and pop up lol the damn car has wheels it can b moved

Some Country? Dude,if ya don't like it here,L E A V E !!!

This contractor didn't want to do when you worked.He was a lazy sack of hitting the tallion.You can tell cause he did the mafongool

I think 1 guy didn't want to do that work...

Def gotta watch these types criminals, i was stupid too, i paid for my flooring in full like a dummy. they were in there doing the floor, scheduled to come back the next day to finish. my dumb azz paid, hahahah. i got friggin lucky, cuz after hounding him every day for two weeks, leaving messages, texts. etc. first he was responding back, then after a while he stops. lmao. so I sent text, guilting him, and told him i realized my job was small and he squeezed me in between his bigger money jobs, etc. etc and he sent his guys that day and they finished it out. i got lucky. not gonna lie. never ever doing that dumb shite again. lol. he got annoyed and sent text about how he knew he shouldn't have taken this small of a job. etc. etc. i stayed . quiet...... lmao, cuz i wanted his guys to stay and finish it. i thanked him for doing me a solid. etc. but whew.... i dodged a bullet.... and learned a valuable lesson. but oh i didn't know she wouldn't move her car. i had it paused. haven't reached the end of it yet. but he's def being slim shady, he needs to return her money. he's up to no good. and at end, his airhead domestic violence zombie wife needs to just stop. she's looking ridiculous. going on national tv, blaming a car for stealing this woman's money. insane. her employer should fire her dumb azz. smh. my dog ate my work, my wife was sick, i was sick, covid, a car was in driveway, the front door was too far to knock. my cell was acting up, so couldn't text her to move car. blah blah blah friggin thieves, so hard up, over 700? unreal. this is people stay away from small local businesses. ya'll be too thirsty....

Why do they keep their purse on?

This guy seems shady to me. 🤨

Fix the damn roof!!!!!

My roof was done in 1 day. What is this 2 weeks or more business harvy and the street people are talking about? My home is 2,500 sq ft. 1 day.
