You're an Unfair Landlord

- The plaintiffs rented a house from the defendant. When they moved out, the plaintiffs claim the defendant illegally withheld their security deposit and billed them for smoke damage even though the defendant knew they were smokers when they signed the lease. The plaintiffs believe the defendant is just trying to take advantage of them, so they’re suing. The defendant insists the plaintiffs caused extensive damage, and he’s countersuing for additional repairs.

Man's came ready with the visual aids. He understood the assignment. 😹
He takes his job as landlord very seriously.
Coming from an ex-smoker cigarette stains are no joke and can affect everything in the home. I've worked in an old building doing construction and when I had to demo a suite of an old tenant I saw the outline of nicotine stains, that's when I decided to stop smoking. It's been 30 years now.
i smoked from 15 to about 28, been clean off cigs for 10 years now. Never once did I smoke inside.
🥰well done. Now my turn.
Congratulations it’s been about 10 yrs for me as well! Quitting smoking was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done.
I'll just go outside. Smoking since I was 16, I'm 32 now. However, I don't rub the ashes on walls, interior walls/exterior walls. etc. But they calm me down. But good for you quitting. :)
the only problem with that is nicotine on it's own doesn't leave stains, nicotine is a stimulant drug, it's tar that leaves those stains. nicotine is like caffeine in soda, it's a stimulant. tar is the yellow sticky substance.
Wow. That defendant was really going to show as much evidence as possible. Impressive.
Nice to see a litigant prepared for once, especially the defendant.
He didn't have his paint receipt
Pit Bull and smoking. A landlord's dream
😮😮😮
I love when someone files a lawsuit and end up having to pay
Me, too!! One of my fav outcomes when plaintiff is a dick😆m or f
Me too!😅
What case did you watch there was a net judgment in favor of plaintiff?
@@testerone5390 the one we’re talking about here was against the plaintiff-the person who filed the civil suit.They filed a lawsuit for $2000 and ended up having to pay the defendant $400 and change. What do you mean by your question?
@@testerone5390the loser of the case always exits and gets interviewed first. Can’t remember who exits first in a double $0 if there was a counterclaim.
They definitely had a dog
You can tell that the plaintiff is making it up as they go along
It wAs a BaRbEqUe, tHaT wAs a bArBeQuE sTaiN
Usually, smokers don’t realize how much they and everything around them reeks. They are around it all the time and end up thinking it’s normal. It’s really difficult to clean thoroughly…and expensive.
I use to clean homes as a job I had in high school. We went into this one home that belonged to a smoker that moved out. I cleaned the bathroom mirror and yellow tar rub off the mirror it was nasty. The whole place smelt awful the carpet had to be replaced the walls had to be cleaned like 4 times I thought the walls were yellow when we were done the walls were white just a nasty habit
I was FORCED to sit by an old lady heavy smoker ( she had stains on fingers fine lines around lips etc) SHE STANK TO HIGH HEAVENS HAD the lipstick on her teeth etc I COULDNT wait to get away from the stench I also KNOW you can paint over nicotine with killez paint just fine
Yup they used to the smell
Within 60 seconds I knew the plaintiffs would lose. Smoke damage is gross🤢
Yeah, even during the intro you could see how this case would go
Except there is NO WAY for the short time they lived there the nicotine would build up that much!! The landlord is lying.
@@jessicapearson9479 they lived there over a year.
Plus there's not even smoking apartments anymore so even if he knew they were smokers they still shouldn't have been smoking inside
Most well prepared defendat ive seen! Love the visual aids lol.
9:56 Milian is wearing jeans under her robe! I love it!!
& sneakers lol
The plaintiffs got greedy and should’ve left well enough alone 😂
I love episodes when then plaintiff ends up owing at the end. Plaintiffs are complete liars. I love how at the end the plaintiff says he was doing this to advocate for renters rights…. Dude, you LOST!
The fact that a landlord allows you to smoke is irrelevant. If you choose to smoke inside, you choose to lose a chunk of your security deposit to clean and remove the nicotine and smell.
YUP! if you're a tenant, you actually have to clean the place (BBQ sauce and grease splatters? Yeesh!! ) all the best to you!!
this landlord likely spent the deposit. when they spend it they come back with damages to lower the amt they have to come up with if any at all. the more sensational the "damages" the less they have to fork over. textbook case.
Exactly. Just because your lease allows you to live in the apartment and go to the bathroom, doesn't mean you get to crap in the living room. You can smoke in the place (assuming that was actually ever agreed to) but you're also responsible for doing so responsibly and cleaning up after you leave. By the way, I love the BBQ story. So it's cool that you supposedly had a BBQ 5 feet from the door, splattered BBQ sauce every where, and then leave it like that?
That's why you have respect for the property and landlord and smoke outside if that's what you are going to do.
Yep. I am super sensitive to smoke. Even old smoke damage can make me have breathing issues.
Smoke outside with the windows CLOSED. Period. NEVER inside. The smell and stains require professional removal and can cause other people health issues.
Wow!! I was waiting for the defendant to submit his footnotes and reference page 😂 He was pre👏🏾pared👏🏾!!!
Who else loves the fact that Judge Milian wears jeans and sneakers under her robe? I personally think it's great
I was waiting for this comment
I love it and she fine
She use to wear dresses and but almost always heels but she fell on one episode coming down from the bench and after that, I've noticed it's been sneakers.
Lol no I don’t love it
@@yung1717 I'm sorry I think you're a weirdo
You can never convince indoor smokers how disgusting they make things... until they quit, then they'll notice in short order. As long as they smoke though, the smoke just magically goes away, and the aroma of a dead hog in the summer heat, that's just something coincidentally outside every smoker's house.
years ago most of us didn't care about the smell, and cigarettes decades ago didn't leave as much of a yellow covering on things. I'd say for the last 30 yrs they've become more destructive cosmetically, they're also more smoky and stink more. they were this bad way back when. lots of us though were around smoke 24/7 since we were kids, that's well over 60 years of cigarette smoke exposure, so far quite a lot of us are still here and doing well. I can't say the same for those I know who never smoked & never lived in a smoking household. Radon is really the thing to worry about, radon comes in second to cigarettes, and it's in your home right now. we've all been exposed to it.
My partner used to smoke for more than 25 years.
He quit for his health. Not too long after quitting he was "amazed" at all the new things he could smell; he never realized there was a pizza joint right in his area.
He would NEVER smoke inside his own home and would make sure to change clothes if meeting with people; he was inspired to give a fok by seeing how gross other smokers could be 🤭
That's not just a smoker those people are ignorant as well. I smoked for 10 years before quitting and I HATED visiting anyone who smoked in their house. I always thought it was disgusting. And I refused to sleep at someone's house if they did. Never smoked in my house, just went outside and I used to smoke a lot too. Now that I quit it just bothers me even more.
@Hi Friends🍿 I was the same way when I used to smoke. Brushing my teeth, changing clothes, I always thought it was rude to force others to smell it. But tbf I did grow up in a house that was non smoking so I knew how much nicer it was.
@@MalloriaAnn My partner grew up in a non smoking house too. So that's probably a thing, not being exposed to second hand smoke growing up.
....
Kudos for being a considerate former cigarette smoker lol 👍// A lot of the time it's "the small things" that help distinguish civilized people from the rest of the crowd imo
“How are we going to pay him ?”That backfired on them.
Sounds like she said. “So we gotta pay him?”
@@natashascott8489 Yea, I heard "So we gotta pay him?" as well.
Judgement agencies can come after anything you own (car, bank accounts, any other income, etc.) They just can't take your house.
Plaintiff is actually using the "That's not my dog" defense in this one.
Lol 😂
@@LawsonPatterson 🤣 I loved Peter Sellers!
Yep I watch dogs sometimes but I require that I watch it at that person's house. I'm not having a strange dog in my house. The dog is probably more comfortable at their own home anyway.
I keep screaming to the lady. Put your hand down. This is a court room, not a classroom 😂😂😂
BBQ sauce but they moved out in November.. how disgusting are these people that they just leave bbq sauce on the door they walk through every day!?
Man I get mad when my blinds get dusty I at least vacuum them
@@ryans413 haha I’m a clean freak bro, I gotta dust em down at least once a week. But a vacuum for blinds?? That’s heavy metal my dude
The judge wearing jeans and running shoes under her robe makes my day.
Love his easel display.
He was well prepared. I bet they didn't expect that lol
I would never let a tenant smoke in my newly remodeled apt.
You don't smoke in house unless you own it . People that don't smoke are a lot more sensitive and will smell something you'll never will!
Even if you own it you shouldn’t smoke.
@@LeolaGlamourif you own it do what ever you want.
@@anthonyslazas6413 Well if you want to have home depreciation/have to pay to clean walls and repaint then yeah do whatever you want.
@@LeolaGlamour that's because you own it!!!
For sure my friend would smoke in his car and it was so nasty the smell I had to say yea I can’t ride in your car anymore it smells.
Defendant is on top of his game....
It was the neighbor's pit bull!!! Yeah, right. They must have smoked 24/7 in that apartment to get that nasty. Just because you rent doesn't mean that you can't wash the blinds and the walls. Any place I ever rented looked better when I left than it did when I moved in.
Hi. With respect to leaving a home better than you received it, that’s 100% my Mom, too. Landlords are ALWAYS upset when she moves, because of the way she cares for their home and property.
I always did the same thing. I smoked in my last rental but I cleaned *everything* with vinegar, water & lemon oil. Carpets and ceilings included 😅 But I got every penny of my deposit back 😎
People think because they rent the landlord will clean once they leave um no it’s your responsibility why’ll renting to keep the place clean it’s not hard to do. Just shows how nasty you are leaving the place a mess like that
The guy sues for $2000 and ends up having to pay money BUT says in the end It was okay because he got to expose the landlord. 😂😂😂
He's just happy the show is paying what he owed.
😃 I love Milian's kicks & jeans. It must've been Casual Friday, although I'll bet the producers couldn't care less what she wears after 20+ years on the show. 🙂
Whyyyy are the plaintiffs so excited that they got bbq sauce on blinds, as if it proves they're anything but NASTY.
Judge Milan looks so big and powerful in her seat, but when she comes down, she is so tiny!
Right 😂😂
Getting rid of tobacco stains off walls is much harder than the landlord let on. A friend and I were repainting the inside of my parents' home. We started on one wall as a test. No matter how much we scrubbed with TSP, the stains would bleed through primer and paint. My dad and I were able to find a primer to cover the staining. At the time it was $75 a gallon. Even then the stain bleed through the primer, it did not bleed through the regular paint. The whole house had to have that primer and paint.
That’s sounds like a YOU problem, nobody has to smoke inside that’s a personally choice that landlord isn’t responsible for.
As a smoker myself I Never smoke inside. I’ve seen first hand what it does to walls alone lol. I own my own home, never would I allow anyone to smoke In my house. Even in a blizzard you see my dumbass outside sucking one down. No one else needs to be affected for my stupid habits.
@@knyan4806 you need to read the original comment again. They were saying how hard it is to get rid of smoke stains. Even harder than the landlord said to the Judge. Which means they are supporting the landlord. Get it? 🙄
@@knyan4806 reading compression is key
if it's that hard to get out, especially if it's bleeding through paint, then it's not tar stains & is likely mold. Those are hallmark mold symptoms. Aspergillus mold does what you're describing, it'll look JUST like tar from cigarettes, but it bleeds through like that & clings to the walls and it can have an odor. I lived in a home that had aspergillus and I've lived in many homes of (and with) smokers, the smoking homes didn't have this but the home with aspergillus very much did. what many think are cigarettes staining everything is usually a specific type of mold.
"I'm not going to pay him!"
oh, you very much ARE, dear! 😂😂😂
No one said that. What the hell are you talking about?
As a smoker. My blinds was like that. And it is definitely nicotine.
I didn’t believe anything they said if the blinds were on the door how did the bbq splash sauce on the blinds what do you have the bbq in the doorway like what
@@ryans413 - You never know what people do.
What is it with tenants having the balls to sue landlords they owe money to. Of course they’re entitled selfish smokers too who don’t think rules apply to them.
_"I wanted to expose the landlord"_
Well you didn't, you end up with a bill ! 🤣
“Yup that’s bbq sauce”
That’s when I knew they was goin to lose 😂💀
When you take somebody to court and it backfires. And you end up having to pay the person you were trying to sue.
Exposed the landlord?
Are you kidding me he exposed himself and his wife of being liars
I’ve never seen JMM in jeans and sneakers lol
Yea that was funny
Defendant did great with bringing detailed evidence
I'm a smoker and I don't smoke in my house just because my kids, and the smell of stale smoke is disgusting!!
The plantiffs knew they owed money to the man, which is why they didn't reply back to him once he sent them notice about their deposit. They were just mad about the collections so they tried to take a chance at getting money back... They actually came out better than what they came to court with. They owed 1k with collection, but now they only owe 400, so they were able to take 600 off their debt.
Not JM with jeans 👖 & sneakers 👟 on, under that robe 👘 🤣
Once I saw the defendant had a whole bulletin board, I knew it was game over
Famous last words:
" *That is NOT my dog!* "
No Sassing this time, I love when the judge says Are You Sassing Me ?
First, smoking destroys homes and no amount of cleaning/disinfecting will help. I would never buy a home of a smoker. Second, the plaintiffs and the people outside were complete morons.
Exactly, a family member passed away and she was a heavy smoker. The whole house was literally yellow and the walls and ceilings were sticky. Every single inch of the house had to be cleaned and repainted. Carpet and padding also replaced, it was bad. If you smoke, go outside and don't stay inside.
False ...Y'all people was just nasty if u clean your home smoking makes no difference and will not do all what u said
@@bongoikno4994 damn bro I thought I was a clean freak.. you clean the yellow off your walls?
@@randyvac01 Smokers stink too...actually, they stink and everything around them stinks. Smokers with pets can be very filthy people. I used to work for Carpeteria and I can tell you some disgusting stories about smokers with pets. 🤢🤮 I'm talking so bad the floorboards had to be pulled up and replaced. Vile!
how did us non smokers ever live years ago inside homes with smokers...I don't remember any of us freaking out & being dramatic over it. When I looked for a house to buy I never refused to buy a house of a smoker...lol that would just be silly. Christ, everyone smoked years ago and I don't remember as a non smoker it ever being some horrible national incident. are people incapable of acting like mature adults these days or something???
They are doing more than smoking cigs

@@milesandemilyrock she kept touching her belly.... AND THIS HERE IS MY MAIN PROBLEM. Foot in mouth syndrome 🤣
The plaintiffs are ding dongs 😂
Lol every time I see cases like this, I’m reminded of why I don’t think I could handle the amount of aggravation and stress that comes with being a landlord.
How did you expose the landlord when you lost?
LoL true
Exactly! More like you just exposed yourself instead lol.
this is why we cant have anything nice anymore
I used to be a cleaner and we had to clean a smokers house. They smoked indoors and they knew how bad it was. We walked in and the smell hit me like a pile of bricks. Within 5 minutes of being there I had a massive headache and my chest started to hurt. We were there for 10 minutes, before I was like I can't. I was physically ill after for the rest of the day. Every surface was caked in brown goo from the buildup
Imagine how the inside of the smokers body is, it's just awful. So many in my family, including my mom died from lung cancer, its no joke.
@@bunjijumper5345😢🙏🏽
Looking good, Jake!.. n sweet lil Karter too!! 💕💯👍
Probably the most well prepared litigant
That man is almost 50 years old and has never rented an apartment? I’m from Alabama and what he said about families providing homes for their families just isn’t true. Alabama is like anywhere else.
Exactly.
His family ain't providing him with shit, he's a crackhead and depending on when this was filmed, is Def above 50 now.
@sciencefraction9275 He's been out of his parents house for years, living off Crack and women. Smh.
The plaintiff seems like a nice guy, but YAY my favorite kind of trial, where you sue and then end up owing money!
Some smokers do a thing called “stepping outside to smoke”😳🫣
"That's bbq sauce, not nicotine sauce"
.... 🤢 Nicotine sauce?
Yeah, she's definitely on something. She's way too chatty, anxious, geeky & fidgety.
Rumor has it the smoker plaintiff's named the dog Marlboro 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
'Justice is blind' but....sometimes you just look at the people and instantly can tell that they are gonna lose.
Nah 🤦🏾♀️ please don't ever sit on a jury. 😒
As soon as they open their mouths you could tell they were lying their mannerisms and all
True! Every time I look at these people and think...nope you're losing this one...I'm always right. With most people what you see is what you get.
Blind not deaf. The second you lie....it's over.
You should never smoke in the house. My ex owned his own homes and he never smoked cigarettes inside. He also knew I was allergic so he didn’t even like me going out with him.
The plaintiff are very VERY expressive with their hands.
A smoking facility really!!!! They both sound so ignorant and entitled.
Smoikers are disgusting people. They seem to ignore the fact that the smoke and tar gets into everything - carpets, blinds, curtains, ceilings and walls. Of course they should pay for all the damage they cause. And of course the sort of people who smoke are the sort of people that would want a pit-bull. Horrible people. So oblivious of just how disgusting their behavior is that they have the audacity to sue the landlord who is left having to clean up and fix the damages they did.
I'm a smoker and my parents smoke and I got their place when they moved out and omg that shit was hell to get off the wall. Took me a week to sand a dresser down because it gummed up the sand paper so much I had to keep changing it. So I get his frustration.

Hi p.c fam. I hope everyone is enjoying their day so far.
And u as well!😊
👋🏽 Hey, jayb! 😊

Smokers?..no thx..pitbull as a pet?...no thx..!
The defendant needs to start a biz as a consultant for potential landlords. Shoot I want to contact this dude to mentor me!! 😂😂
Very cool that the judge is wearing jeans and sneakers👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
When the judge walks out with jeans and skechers on 😅😂
Not the Pitbull coming borrow sugar….😂
He tries to validate a lot of his statements with "You can ask (blank) if you want"
My experience with a friend who turned out to be a habitual liar was this very thing she would do!
I’ve never told a potential landlord I was a smoker when I viewed an apartment. They always asked me first. And that’s the most ridiculous story that it was a neighbors dog who was constantly at their house… That $100 a month for pet rent is equally ridiculous. Pets don’t have jobs!!!
🤣😂🤣😂
Okay... Smoking DOES leave a film of nicotine... However, those blinds are NOT coated in years worth of nicotine. Those look like dusty blinds that have not been scrubbed much for a few years. 🙄
Yeaa they just looked dusty and dirty to me . Nicotine stains would've looked a lot worse in my opinion
The defendant is absolutely correct regarding the nicotine stained walls, blinds, curtains, cabinets, and everything else in the property. I had rental property that stated in the lease that it was a "no smoking of any kind or anything property.." I reminded the tenant on numerous occasions that she signed a lease forbidding smoking. When she moved out, my entire apartment was ruined and basically had to be completely remodeled. I had to physically wash every wall, ceiling, door, window, trim work, lights, and ceiling fans.The fans had a nightlight setting on them with a beautiful glass fixture that separated it from the rest of the lights. I also had to replace all the carpeting and the fabric blinds. It took me over a month to get my walls and ceings clean enough to be sealed with an odor/stain block primer called Kilz. No matter how much you wash the walls, nicotine stains and smell can not be removed enough to paint over. The stains and smell will still come through. My ceiling fans had nicotine in the nightlight, which is considered a sealed part of the fans. It was so thick that I had to scrape it off. I went through more cleaning supplies to clean that one apartment than I have in all of my years renting out properties. By the time I was finished, everything I used to cleaned it had to go in the trash, and my hands looked like they had been dyed orange, and I wore gloves.
The smell, stains, and cigarette burns in the carpet were so bad I had to remove all the carpet and pad and wash and seal the wood floors before I could put new carpet in.
It took me nearly 4 months to restore my property, and it cost me over $7,500.00, which was with me doing all the work. I had the carpet put in by installers, but I removed the old carpet and pad and sealed the floors myself. I can't even begin to imagine what it would have cost me to have all the work done by contractors. I don't think JM really realized just how bad a home gets when people smoke in it. It causes extreme damage, and it can devastate the homeowners' finances far worse than it did mine. Needless to say, I sued her and won, but at that time, the small claims court was limited to $5,000.00. I lost money doing it myself, I would never have been able to pay someone to do the work. The contractors that I did talk to wouldn't paint over washed walls and ceilings, they wanted to remove all the sheetrock, doors and trim work and put in new, for thousands of dollars that I didn't have. Tenants who smoke in the house don't think the landlord can tell they are smoking in the house because they can't smell it. Smokers are used to the smell, but for anyone that doesn't smoke, the smell is very obvious as soon as they enter the property and as with mine, before ever opening the door.
There are a lot of great tenants and landlords out there. Unfortunately, there are also bad ones on both sides, who ruin it for the good ones.
Smoke damage is AWFUL. Even if you clean it, the smell stays. Genuinely don't know why smoker's are surprised at all the damage they are doing to a home.
Put your hand down...God she was bugging me
Love that judge is in jeans n tenny shoes🤣🤣
Smoking inside is just trashy. Smoking in general is disgusting
Gotta love it when a scums tenant wants to “expose” a landlord 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
I LOVE when the plaintiff's end up having to pay the defendant, lol. That's what you get. I also don't believe the plaintiff about not owning a dog.
Every rental property has a pet fee..why is the judge questioning the defendant like that and not question the plantiff..then she said "how are we going to pay him"
I’m a smoker, I NEVER smoke inside though. I also can’t be anywhere where they smoke inside (I do miss doing it in bars though 😉) I’m also always respectful of my butts. I don’t like to punish anyone for my nasty habit ☹️.
I love the judges jeans and sneakers hahaha
I like how people try to sound professional when they don’t wanna act all like that cus you know we do what we do. Ha, can’t hide they real ways. 😂
15:17-15:26 - Love how Doug gracefully rubs it in and basically tells him, you lost , you re a dirtbag, you got nothing, now go sign some documents
Never hate anyone, and don't hate smokers. Out of all of the addictions , smoking is the hardest to quit, hands down!! People usually start as teens. Thinking it's cool and grown up. Then they find themselves in a full terrible situation, they are hooked 😢. Pray for their recovery and strength to quit.😊
Switch to weed😂 problem solved roll paper not blunts no smoke stains
I hear ya. Yet cleaning up after a smoker’s home is OMG an enormous task. Every single inch has to be scrubbed, scrubbed, and scrubbed… prepped and/or repainted. It is a LOT of work. Buckets and buckets and buckets of yellow/brown water. (Ask me how I know. Lol.)
Smoking is NOT the hardest to quit. It's not even close! Quitting smoking does NOT cause severe pain or possible death. Go talk to an addict, drugs or alcohol.
You are not hating when you require the smoke stains and smell to be completely removed - which is, actually, nearly impossible.
@@slmel7it IS one of the hardest addictions to quit. Depending on who you talk to or read, it is definitely in the top 5. My therapist said that food was the hardest addiction to quit and smoking was the second, however everyone had their own opinion and even google isn’t consistent with their sources/answers. The stats on what is the worst change depending on what you read and where you read it.
13:45: When Judge Milian says "Everybody stop talking for a moment..." I can tell that it's time for "Rough Justice."
If health is not important then they don’t care about your property.
Don’t ever rent to SMOKERS!
I love the Judge was sporting Jeans and sneakers.
I was having my living room repainted and removed my photos from the wall.
I quit smoking after that, the nicotine stains were gross...
HE CAME PREPARED!!! DEFENDANT SAID YOU WILL LEARN TODAY!!
"I just want to expose .... "
Yea... you just wanted to ditch out and it didn't work.
Plaintiff sounds like Tommy Davidson
