The Plaintiff's Claim of Assault and Theft
The plaintiff, Mr. Ousu, a mechanic, brought a case against the defendant.
He claimed the defendant assaulted him.
He also alleged she stole money from his pocket.
This incident reportedly occurred when she came to pick up her car.
Mr. Ousu stated the defendant was screaming.
He quoted her as saying, "We're gonna kill you, give him my keys."
He eventually called 911 during the altercation.
Mr. Ousu asserted that the defendant grabbed $500 from his pocket.
He said this happened during the assault.
The Defendant's Denial and Counterclaims
The defendant denied dating Mr. Ousu.
She stated she had only seen him three times.
Judge Judy questioned this, noting Mr. Ousu was best friends with her brother.
This meant he attended family events.
The defendant then conceded he did come to family occasions.
She maintained she did not see him "a lot."
The defendant denied taking Mr. Ousu's money.
She claimed the police searched her and found no money.
She also accused Mr. Ousu of filing a false arrest charge against her.
The defendant had her own claims against Mr. Ousu.
She alleged he broke her car's back windshield.
This damage supposedly occurred while the car was in his care.
She also claimed he did not fix it properly.
The Car Sale and Initial Discrepancies
Mr. Ousu confirmed he sold the defendant a car.
He is a mechanic.
The sale date was April 11th of the current year.
Mr. Ousu presented a bill of sale.
The defendant had signed this document.
The bill of sale indicated a price of $2,500.
Mr. Ousu had purchased the car on March 27, 2019.
He paid approximately $2,000 for it.
The defendant, however, claimed she paid $5,000 for the car.
She stated the $2,500 on the bill of sale was to avoid taxes.
This was a scheme to pay less for car plates.
Judge Judy immediately questioned the defendant's credibility.
She warned the defendant about coming to court with "dirty hands."
This meant she would not get her money back if she engaged in such schemes.
Judge Judy asserted her ability to see through such attempts.
The Brake Service and Broken Windshield
The defendant brought the car to Mr. Ousu's shop on June 18th.
She wanted the brakes serviced.
Mr. Ousu claimed he had told her the brakes were bad before she bought the car.
He said he offered to fix them for $150.
The defendant claimed she paid $100 for the brakes.
She also stated she gave him a $20 tip.
She had driven the car for two and a half months before bringing it in for brake service.
While the car was in Mr. Ousu's care, the back windshield was broken.
Mr. Ousu explained how this happened.
He was pulling the car out of his garage.
Another person with him had put the rear windshield wiper up.
The wiper was not put back down.
It got caught on the garage and broke the back windshield.
Mr. Ousu confirmed there was no other body damage to the car.
The Loaner Car and Its Condition
Mr. Ousu provided the defendant with a loaner car.
He gave her a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder.
The defendant described it as a "beat up car" that "didn't even work."
Judge Judy noted that Mr. Ousu was not contractually obligated to provide a loaner.
She pointed out that individual mechanics usually do not have loaner cars.
Mr. Ousu presented photographs of the loaner car.
These pictures showed the car after the defendant returned it.
The photographs depicted the car as dirty.
