The plaintiff shares a common wall with his neighbor, the defendant. The plaintiff alleges he paid for roof repairs, which the defendant owes him money for, so he’s suing. The defendant claims the plaintiff’s half of the roof was leaking, not hers.

    Besides the point. I love seeing sons take care of their mothers. He was toting that purse with no shame all for his mom 😊
  • This is exactly why I won't buy those side by side houses that share rooms, lawns or anything.

    When judge asked the plaintiff how old he was I assume she thought he was much older than sixty 😂 Also the lesson is here we reap what we sow.
  • @NubianP6
    I agree with the judge…this was truly poetic. Turnabout is indeed fair play.

    I think he's trying to get her to pay half for his roof. A 30 inch section is not $5,000

    It’s amazing how so much of law is just common sense. I knew I should have been a lawyer or a judge.

    The Judge was surprised that man was only 60 LOL she probably thought he was in his mid to late 70s
  • L O L. The judge was shocked when the dude said he was 60. I guarantee she thought he was older than that and I can't blame her for thinking that but in reality he is not much older than she is. L O L. he sounds extremely grizzled for a 60-year-old man.

    The price seems extreme for partial roof.
  • @imartinist
    The story of this case seems biblical lol 😂

    That's absolutely insane that a contractor designed their 2 sides to be connected by a FLAT connection. Physics 101: The water flowing down both sides will pool on the flat connecting area. I'm shocked this hasn't been a flooded disaster before. Plus, as the Judge says, it is kind of poetic that the shared retaining wall needed to be fixed years prior and he refused to share in the cost. Karma?

    If I was one of the homeowners I’d have that valley between the roofs removed. That’s a nightmare with it constantly holding water.
  • @SnowPink90
    I thought he had some nerve asking her to pay for half. Very ignorant. He had the air of entitlement in his attitude. The judge ruled correctly in this case.
  • @tmilesffl
    He's only 60 but sounds much older.
