I could see Ken on either side of this one, but guessing tenant-side.

The description is actually wrong, though. Ken went against a large property owner and WON.
Background:
Ken has been a rent control tenant in Los Angeles since 1995.
He added an unofficial roommate in September 2015. The building management was aware of this guy, and in fact made contact with him during repairs, and never once demanded he officially be added to the lease. By Los Angeles city law, that makes the guy an official tenant after 60 days or being known to the landlord.
When the building was for sale in May 2017 (20 months after this guy moved in), they decided to try dirty tricks to evict Ken, so as to increase the building's value. Ken's unit would fetch $2100 on the open market, but currently only pays $1100, so that's $12,000 per year difference in rent!
They claimed they had no idea of this roommate (LIE), gave him a backdated three day notice (so as to make it look like he already refused to get rid of the roommate), and filed for eviction.
Through both my guidance and a good attorney, Ken beat the eviction case.
However, his cocksucker freeloader roommate started refusing to pay rent during the eviction proceedings, yet refused to move out. The guy stayed there for months rent-free, not understanding that Ken would be responsible for the rent whether he won or lost the eviction case! (When you're being evicted, you are temporarily not required to pay rent, but it accumulates and you have to pay it when the case is over, even if you lose.)
The building eventually evicted this roommate, but Ken stayed (this was the result of the eviction case).
Ken sued the roommate for the back rent -- $2500, for the months of May, June, July, August, and September 2017 ($500 each).
Judge Judy contacted them and offered to take the case instead, and both accepted.
I will not reveal what happened. You can watch on the 18th.
This is already fantastic.Quote:

Hopefully somebody posts the show here. Also, hopefully 1 that can be watched from here in Canada.

I have a Judge Judy story....
Few years back my father & I were boat shopping and found one online that we were interested in. Contacted the agent and ended up meeting the guy at a marina. We’re test driving the boat, and we are discussing it’s history. He tells me “not supposed to tell you this but it’s actually Judge Judy’s boat”.
I didn’t know much about her but I knew who he was. I’m like wow, didn’t know she was into fishing. He replies “oh she doesn’t fish, it’s used as her tender” I’m like wtf, this is one expensive tender. He then drove us by her “YACHT”. At a guess I’d say 100M+ yacht. No joke.
Ended up buying that “tender”. What ended up happening to that boat is kind of an interesting story too...
Comcast has repeats listed for Thursday.Quote:
