I absolutely love when people state someone they hired is not even licensed, or someone who's renting a room to them isn't supposed to be renting legally- it's like... DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE YOU HIRE THEM. The plaintiff saying the defendant is not even licensed and then Curt saying, "But you went to him" made me laugh.
That's a ridiculous statement. Saying that it's the customer's fault just condones unlicensed businesspeople who operate illegally. Of course, it doesn't matter here because the plaintiff is obviously lying.
Most ppl don't look up if a mechanic has a license. Most ppl who find out a place is being rented illegally is when they have to take the landlord to court over something. You can't be serious.
Yeah... I had to double tap back to make sure my mind hasn't really turned to mush yet. 🤪 JM forgetting to say "Thaaaank you, Douglas" made me feel off kilter 🫷🏾 😖 for a few seconds. 😂
That was a seriously funny line. Crazy to see him cheer up the plaintiff like a child. “Who’s still a rock star? You’re still a rockstar!” The instant cheer up of the plaintiff is hilarious.
The plantiff is lying, he just stated that he tested the motor on the lake at the very end of the case and he repeated several times before that he tested in 2013 and not before that. I feel like he used the boat in 2012, parked the boat then come 2013 took it out again and the motor got fried after it sucked in silch and is now blaming the defendant. The motor is 14 years old nothing lasts forever. Go buy a new motor or boat and stop wasting the courts time because you are cheap.
As a freelancer, I cleaned the flame rod on a furnace. A couple years after that I got sued for $4500 for a new furnace. In SCC the referee looked at the complaint and straight-up dismissed the case. I spoke to the plaintiff, and she said the furnace started shutting down, just like before. I'm 99% sure the problem was again the flame rod, but the HVAC company was determined to sell a new furnace ~and~ code upgrades. To consumers out there, know this. Your furnace should have a light that tells what has failed in the system. The weak link in the system is the flame detector, and those are a cheap fix, but those big companies are about selling furnaces, not fixing them.
His witness just verified his testimony that he waited a year to complain. And I don’t believe he didn’t use the boat the boat for a year. He was using it and it broke down and now he’s trying to get money.
Plaintiff wanted patch work to get out there again, guessing the weather changed so he didn't take it out same year. Thing with patch work is it doesn't last long.
Plaintiff hall talk is amazing! “He’s not even licensed”. (Mechanics aren’t). “I went to motor vehicles!” (WTF? Does the DMV have to do with anything!). Plaintiff has been into his own mushrooms a bit too much.
I didn't hear him change it once. The judge misunderstood him when he said he test drove it in the lake, not the river. He didn't say he did it earlier than he already claimed. The point is he brought it to a clean water source to test it and the stuck thermostat could not be from that.
Speaking of Harvey, what’s going on outside with Harvey asking all these legal questions to a bunch of young teenagers with braces still on their teeth for crying out loud… Does he really expect them to give an informed answer? 😂 not just this episode I’m only mentioning because I’ve noticed that it seems like it’s “slim pickings” with the outside audience lately… I am all for treating kids equally and asking them to participate but lately it seems like it’s just embarrassing them! Good grief Harvey!
There's an attachment that fits over the water intake you hook a hose to it and you can start the motor safely in your driveway no need to go to a lake to test it
@4:04 The defendant looked at the plaintiff like, "b***h don't address me," when he was looking at him for the proper pronunciation of his last name.😂😂
My family has always had boats. You test the motor the day you get it from the shop. My dad will back the trailer into a lake & try it or use a big bucket of water for the prop. That way if it's not fixed he is already loaded up & it doesn't die in the middle of the lake.
@ SIGHT I'M THINKING WHAT IN GIGALO IS GOING ON HERE 😆🤣. THE PLAINTIFF IS OUT OF GAS W/ THIS SHOULD'VE BEEN ON IT FROM THE START & HE WASN'T YOU GET NOTHING
I can't tell who's telling the truth here but I've been a professional mechanic for 35+ years and I don't have any kind of license. I have lots of certifications and diplomas but there isn't a uniform license that I have ever heard of. Maybe in a particular state? And in other countries, but for the most part mechanics are pretty free to work without any oversight.
Not sure how you're a "professional mechanic" and never heard of certification for it. ASE is nationally recognized as a standard in the U.S. With that being said, I've been working on cars for 30 years and I knew about the certs as far back as 1990.
I was curious too. Looks like some cities and municipalities require it. Probably for other reasons than to ensure competent repair men. Ironically to be licensed in the city I looked at, no training or certification is required. Maximus172: I'm fairly certain he knows what ASE certification is. He's talking about a license.
@@MAXIMUS172 I'm an ASE Master Tech with L1 and L2 certification as well as diesel. I clearly mentioned CERTIFICATION in my comment. That's way different than licensing.
...By the end of this case, I'm sure the judge had figured out why the Defendant ended up hanging up on the Plaintiff those two times. Hell, I wanted to hang up on him, and I was watching a video and not talking to him on the phone.
Dude you didn't have proof, at the very least another mechanic could have documented the work was shotty, and you never mentioned he wasn't licensed until after case was over. 🙅
frog the mushroom hunter should have probably tested it - if it's the same employee for two years the testimony of it being used or not should have had some factor. having a mechanic writing up it was specifically work done would have for sure helped lol
Why not test the motor right away? Then if it blows you have a whole year to fix it and you don’t miss the season, and your claim doesn’t seem so far fetched.
please advise. key? oh wait, i don't know what key means, but i see what he looks like, and what he harvests, so i'm assuming key means, the steady stream of afterparties between burning man festivals.
This is so random, but on Apple Arcade games, there’s a game called Sasquatch, and it’s an older man that lives in the woods that fiends for mushrooms, and will buy them for a pretty penny, and this case reminded me of that. 😂😂😂😂
If you eat too many mushrooms... You don't know what a screw is or what a hole is. He thought there was a hole and he thought there was a screw then he thought there was a hole... That's mushrooms folks.
"I was totally honest with the judge" as he changes his story like 3 times. Plus news flash there isn't a license for mechanics(not even automotive). That's why it's important to know who you are going to
Our brains work like that. Our memories are pretty crappy and as much time goes by, things get foggy and our brains will make things up that seem real. Usually based on what happened, but wrong. One reason why prosecutors don't like to rely on witnesses. This should be a reason to always have a paper trail.
That idiot f'd his own motor up by running it without water to cool it. Anyone knows that you can't run an engine either without oil, or intake water. He is a liar.
A thermostat full of silt is the plaintiffs problems he’s driving a small John boat into a shallow field (that he probably doesn’t own) and the motor drags in the dirt.

The plaintiff is just a sore loser. He destroyed his own motor in the first place, which is why he contacted the mechanic then expected him to repair it and beyond all odds he managed to repair it and then didn't bother to test it for a year, I bet he took it out and hadn't listened to the advice that there was no screen to stop weeds getting in and destroyed it again, but waited a year to pretend he'd never used it in between time. What a scam artist. And why does he look like he came straight out of an 80's porn movie? ha ha ha...
Plaintiff looks like he's wearing a disguise in a bad spy movie.
Steven Seagal wannabe 🤣
Naw. He looks like the kinda guy that went to Woodstock, aspired to be a hippie, and plays Magic the Gathering on weekends.

U can tell he eats what he forages for. Dude is JACKED
That is why you get a qualified mechanic who is has a good reputation and don't hire the guy with the cheapest price to repair the boat.
Curt called him "Mushroom Star" as he was running out to interview him....🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you Douglas
He's probably foraging magic mushrooms, and eating them all.
I’d bet on it lol
Omg funny. I'm 5000 miles from home and have been craving Fiddleheads for days now!!! So. Good!!!
Lmaoooo “I’m familiar with the hallway”. They be so shady and I’m here for it!! 😭😭
