The ONLY reason the mom would tell the 20 year old (and presumably the other 3 kids) about "abuse" that happened when she was a baby is to poison the kids against their father. She is a toxic, awful person. Not that i think he is a saint but i believe overall he's not the toxic, awful person she is. My u cle had an ex-wife like this and she played the same "he was abusive" game when it was never true. She once tripped on the stairs and got hurt while he was at work. She waited an hour for him to get home then called 911 and when she got to the ER told the doctors he pushed her.
My husband’s ex is like this but more toxic. Has him in & out of court with her free motions to screw us over & waste money & time. While we can’t plan anything like a vacation b/c there might be a court hearing for non-sense crap. And she’s interfered so much with our income b/c of having to make 3 copies of everything & when you have 300 pages of texts to prove stuff she’s lying about, it’s expensive & time consuming. Exactly where she wants us while lying about $12,000 in omitted income (I found it in her financial affidavit & she wasn’t awarded anything in the last two hearings)… she alienated his son b/c she’s not getting her way in court but lies her ass off to keep filing motions so she’ll win something)…problem is she keeps filing & we can’t address the real serious stuff that needs to be looked at so she can’t file anymore & to lose custody. She’s not fit to parent when she behaves like this & it’s 9 years we’ve had to go through every day b/c of her. Hopefully it’s about to change & we know the judge will revoke her rights once they hear our extreme horror story….
Listen, my daughter is 18, she was 1.5 when I left her Dad. She loves him dearly bc I never spoke about the horribly things he did to me. When he didn’t show up for her almost her whole life I told her how much he loved, but that he wasn’t well and when he got well they would spend time together. She grew up to see I was a big liar, but she grew up knowing her mom didn’t want her to hurt or be worried about adult things or ever feel unloved. So she now has somewhat of a relationship with him that she doesn’t stress over or stay depressed about bc I didn’t make it negative for her growing up. We’ve had long talks about my reasons and I think she accepts and understands why I handled it the way I did. I never told her he didn’t love her or us or that he was a terrible person. I can’t stand parents who do that!
As a woman myself I feel like the ex wife is definitely poisoning his children against him. She kept almost $2 grand in over charged child support. He’s not a great Dad by any means. But you can tell the ex wife isn’t a sweetheart herself.
Family and I just had a conversation like this the other night. A friend went through divorce and his ex poisoned the children against literally everyone except for her family. A younger family member said that his children were young at the time..and would believe anything the Mom said just as she would believe what her own Mom told her. Our friend said when his children were old enough he would sit down and have a talk with them. Sadly, he passed before that could happen. His family never saw the children again. Very sad how people just take their anger toward someone and put it onto their own children. I would never put down my children's father to my children, they are a part of him too.
@@techoperatives2232 He wasn’t trying to be part of his kids life. There for he wasn’t exactly great at being in his children’s lives. Paying child support is only a fraction of being a divorced family. Actually seeing the kids is another huge part.
@@marys4565 I ran a parenting class for couples with children divorcing that was mandated by the court. And one of the first lessons I taught was don’t bash the other parent to the kids. The kids are part of both of them. And bashing each other will make the kids feel like I look like my Mom and act like her does that mean Daddy hates me too. Or oh I’m really like my Daddy does that mean that Mom hates me too. And I taught them to try and be kind and mindful when discussing issues with each other. Pretend you’re friends until you can actually become friends.
It would be great if some of these divorced Dad's would fight to see their kids the way many mothers do when in the same situation. D I doubt the ex-wife has been singing his praises to the kids. But the truth is he moved on to his "lovely new wife" and new kids (stepkids).
Yup! This is true. When a person keeps throwing mud at the other person than there isn't self responsibility there for their own actions. Both of them lack accountability
Nah i went thru this in the 80’s as a child, it was near impossible for a father.. he’d have to be an a’hole to not go broke.. and a psycho to see ur kids..
JM seemed determined to see the plaintiff as the bad guy when the courts proved that he was innocent. Even in the civil case, the defendant proved that she was the instigator who knew how to abuse the courts. You can tell that the daughter wants to have a relationship with her dad but doesn't want to upset her mother. She actually looked scared and sad at the same time. The mother needs therapy and needs to apologize to her children for putting her stuff on them.🤦🏽♀️😠
That was my issue. I thought she looked timid and scared of the father possibly. Then she said she didn't remember him!?! So, she HAS to be frightened of the mother. That's what makes sense.
Exactly what I commented. I didn't like that. She seems like a piece of work and those poor children have paid for it. However, the other parent can always try harder to get into contact with the kids. He did say they didn't want to fly. Then why don't you fly and stay in a hotel? There are other options. My Dad was like this with his first daughter. I hated it! There are no excuses.
No doubt in my mind the defendant is an absolute liar. When things didn’t go her way, she accused him of DV. Couples argue and they should never, ever put their hands on each other in any circumstance, however, they also shouldn’t make up stuff (manipulate) in their favor. He has many decisions in his favor, which she didn’t deny. Judge asked her when was the divorce and she began to tell her about his abuse and her having to go to a shelter - I already knew she was trying to use the sympathy card. She absolutely used those kids as a pawn.
JM: did you call the police? defendant: Many, many times. JM: did they ever do anything? defendant: No…. Because he would meet them at the curb with a story. JM: and it was 1997 😡😡🙄 I’m guessing she never called the police and needed an excuse real quick as to why there were no reports. Or *if* she called, the police saw through her. It’s absolute nonsense to act like men were not getting arrested for beating their wives in 1997.
The plaintiff was extremely long winded, but I believed him. Now that defendant on the other hand, geesh. What a victim she plays. Nevertheless, he should’ve been in court fighting for shared custody all those years ago.
The judge was beyond irritating. Why ask the question if you don’t want to hear the answer? Luckily the guy had proof, cause she was after him based on whatever biases she had.
How? She gave him his money back but she wasn't buying his BS about no contact with his children. Paying mandatory child support is not being a parent. Is being forced to do what should be done because most people won't!
the judge should keep the same energy she's giving the dad to the mother as well. they're both wrong in different ways. I hate when she's immediately against the dads in cases like this. I rarely see her giving the mothers the scoldings they need & deserve! They end up leaving there thinking they were in the right, which makes it worse.
JM was clearly biased and had not done her homework. It was so sad when it came out that she had tried to put him in jail for phone calls she made and lied about. Daughter doesn’t want to have a relationship with dad because she has been poisoned by the defendant. Defendant KNEW she owed the money and like nails on a chalkboard kept on taking the money. I feel badly for the children who have been cheated out of a relationship with the dad.
It's wild how the judge grilled the man but changed her tone when questioning the female. And why wouldn't the judge allow the man 2 give his explanation to the $90??? She is sooooolo biased
Exactly. I'm usually on her side but she assumed that he was in the wrong and trying to avoid his kids just because he is the man in the situation. She clearly is preventing him from talking to the children and is giving them biased information so they don't want to contact him. At least he pays his child support and was there for him when his son needed him. He's not a bad father, and the judges tone with him before getting any actual proof, was uncalled for.
The Defendant was found guilty of "alienating" the parental rights of the Plaintiff FOUR TIMES. And the fact that the Plaintiff would refuse to take a plea on the harrassment charges(which were later dropped), makes me think the Defendant poisoned her children against their father. The children lost a father because he was tired of constantly dealing with the Defendant. He should have been stronger for his children(and fought to be in their lives), but he's only human. So sad.
I know a guy like this. A bit of a douche but not an abuser. Left his wife for another woman, his ex really turned them against him. He fought and fought but met such resistance from her and then the kids that he eventually settled for minimal time with them and puts his focus on his youngest, from his 2nd marriage. He's a bit of a jerk but the 1st wife could never set aside her hatred to let the kids grow their own relationships with him.
@@jennifer_mertens she was found guilty four times because there were four children. My father pulled the same crap, we all grew up and had our own families and didn’t have much to do with either of them. My father unalived himself, wasn’t found until he was unrecognizable and it took the authorities weeks to find any one of us. none of us cared and no one but my brother went to make cremation arrangements. If anyone wonders what happens when the children grow up … they go live their lives.
Over the years. I think his ex-wife did deliberately poisoned his children against him. I don't believe her DV story. Why would the youngest daughter, hate her father, if she doesn't even know him ? Because her mother taught her to hate him.
I have commented on this in many of JM cases, she's a feminist who hates men. It shows every time. This is why JJ is a real one cause she sees through women or men and tell them off when they pull this ISH
When being greedy and turning the kids against their Dad is more important, this is what happens. She owes him the money and being that the relationship with 3 of his kids his strained, he really has nothing to lose by suing. This is a sad case. Also, I feel child support should end at 18 once the child is legally an adult, regardless if they live at home or not or enrolled in school. Obamacare states parents can keep their adult children on their benefits until the age of 26 and that is enough as far as I am concerned.
This is another case where the ex wife uses the kids as a tool for revenge against her ex husband. I also believe that support should end on the children's 18th birthday. At that point, they're legally adults. They can leave home, join the military, work full time in factories and so on. This woman, like most, want to milk the last drop of blood from her ex. She's vile.
He’s weird that everyone who here is like oh poor him, but he’s the only one that did all the talking and he seemed very toxic himself. He could have gotten an attorney and fought for his kids. That’s what you do as a parent.
Also most of us have been around long enough to remember when women were NOT viewed as capable of abuse. And that the family courts sided with the mothers more often than not. It took extreme measure for fathers to get single custody.
Learn to listen and comprehend and stop being biased. This is 20y later so she ain't homeless, she's a thief. And all the evidence points that her is the abuser and using the court system to harass the plaintiff. 😂😂 No accountability 🤦🏽
Once again Marilyn attempts to raise the defendant, a woman who is CLEARLY and purposely withholding money from this man due to overpayment, while attempting to dishonor him and his position. He was right, the courts proved his position. It’s financially & viable the process, yet she treats him horribly and disrespectfully. She is rude and biased. We all know how she rules when someone says they’re Latino or Cuban, or if they are a woman and you have unsubstantiated claims made by a woman who was scolded by the courts previously for deception. Marilyn is rude and I’ve been amazed at the amount of ppl that have let her disrespect them without merit . She could not act that way in a real court. She would have been disciplined and removed for her never ending biases.
Hard to be there for them when she is actively preventing him from seeing the kids, so much so that he won 4 times for her trying to prevent his parental rights. At least he makes sure to pay his child support and was there with open arms when his son came to him for help.
He’s fighting over nothing but hasn’t missed any meals. He just sits around thinking of ways to stay in their lives. If he just did what the Court ordered, but he can’t. He has to be in control and he won’t get out of her life. Once the kids are all grown and gone, she should change her name, move and go completely no contact. Give her two years and she’ll be a new person.
@@techoperatives2232 Yes, I’m a feminist and when a woman takes her four small children to a shelter it is the man who is abusing them. They never have the class to recognize what small, insecure men they are by abusing their own families. At least I’ve lived long enough to find out how the story ends. My father was the same way. This year he committed suicide and wasn’t found until after he was unrecognizable. I call it Recliner Justice and I have the pictures. He made his choices and suffered his consequences. It was a blip in our lives and it didn’t take more than three days to settle back into them as if nothing happened.
@@robynetaylor6605 Robyn, you’re projecting very hard. You do not know what that man is/was thinking. The kids are grown up and also some of emancipated themselves, hence the lawsuit to get back money P overpaid THAT A FAMILY COURT JUDGE ALREADY RULED ON. The litigants have been divorced for nearly 20 years at the time of the taping. You say your father was the same way, so perhaps your mother played a role in you being so filled with anger in 2024. This case is not about your life. I hope you find peace and forgiveness where necessary.
@@cindymann3673 In civil court a Judge’s ruling is only as good as the enforcement, which is almost nil. I believe her about DV. Look at him trying to get $2K from her. She’s not going to pay him and she already knows the court is going to wag their finger at her and that’s it. Statute of Limitations will kick in and he still won’t get his money.
Have you been through the court system with an unfit mother who lies to get crap she doesn’t need or to keep you in the hole with how your money is spent? Having a judge deny your waivers or appeals denied thanks to the ex who gets her motions free due to being the custodial parent with a small income she admits but omits over $12,000 in hidden income, so she can screw you over while denying your rights to your child b/c she lives several hours away???? No. You do not know this man’s life when it comes to what happened to make it so he doesn’t have contact with his children… Just the little that we hear. That is the story of what my husband & I are currently going through with his unstable ex & the child she for some stupid reason thinks b/c he was punished for lying is ABUSE. Yes there’s mentally unstable & vindictive asshole women who do that to men & child custody situations. He just might be a dead beat. But don’t assume & make a comment like you are involved so you can make a statement like that.
@RileyCullen1 sounds like you're projecting your own pain onto this case... it's clear in the video that this man is a menace to his family and the mother did the right thing right get far away from him and let the courts decided how much she gets from him. I saw no manipulation on her part at all. She defended herself calmly the best she could. I'm sorry your situation has embittered you..
I believe the wife. I ended up running to a shelter to get away from one of my exes too and nobody drags for kids to a shelter because they’re not being abused. Also, the trauma of running and restarting over is unbelievable! So again she had good reason to leave him.
Mothers need to remember, if their going to keep their kids from their dads, the children do grow up and will find out the truth and at the end will end up hating their mother, thinking they could’ve had a relationship the whole time they were young. But I do agree in this scenario, the plaintiff should’ve tried harder to see his kids, that’s what family court’s are for.
I hate people like this. You hate your ex,, so you take it out on your children. Who ever has to pay child support should be glad they are supporting their children. They are you kids. Fuck your ex and fuck your feelings. You had sex, do your duty and take care of your kids. All I hear this guy do is make excuses for not doing things. Moms or dads that do this to their kids are POS. Try harder to see your kids. Stop putting the blame on your ex like your baby. If you love your kids, fight for them.
Best comment so far! 😆 I believe that he was abusive. I also believe that he’s a deadbeat who didn’t utilize the court to fight for custody. I also believe that she knew he overpaid and kept the money but I also detest men who sue for child support overpayment. If you wanted your children- you would have applied for joint custody. Excuses excuses.
It sounds like the husband is dealing with a lot from her actually. I get that a lot of times a father isn't there for the kids during a divorce, but it really sounds like she's putting a lot of stuff in those kids heads to where they don't want to see him and she is preventing him from getting more contact with them. He even has proof of her making false claims against a restraining order, yet they are making it seem like he is the one doing wrong. I don't like the tone the judge is trying to set here as if all women who take their kids are saints.
It’s weird to my ears to hear them referring to them as a “child” when talking about them going to college, or the son being kicked out of mom’s house so the son can get back with his wife? Emancipation when adults? Color me confused. PS people come down on the judge for attacking plaintiff, but he left the state early on growing up, that doesn’t sound like he wanted a relationship
The plantiff is not an angel that people are saying. You can tell by his actions and words are vicious and petty. The defendant isn’t perfect at all but I believe that he abused her.
9:32 - LOL, the judge shuts it down quickly when she realizes that misandry exists and men are treated horribly in court. Can't let that get out Judge! That little interrogation didn't go as you had planned, did it?
Kinda messed up how judge Milian was ready to grill this man over abuse but once he started telling how he had legit evidence that proved the woman was the problem she shut down all line of questioning about it
I have no understanding of why Milian did not do her homework in this case. She was blatantly biased and repeatedly talked over and dismissed the plaintiff. The more I watch the reruns the sadder I am about her role in the People’s Court.
So courts keep dads out of the home only to ask why he isn’t there. She had a restraining on him. The order against him poisoned the relationship with kids after 2yrs.
I really hate when she gets in these moods where she absolutely refuses to let people speak or explain things. Then you tell them they have the burden of proof. Well maybe hush & give them a genuine opportunity to do so??
Dude, the plantiff literally said he has a new wife - the defendant isn't his wife anymore. :P But legit, the children really do pay more than money could ever buy in these cases. Money doesn't buy sanity, and these kids are gonna be losing it every time these parents get together if they can't control their feelings toward each other.
My stepfather’s ex wife was like the defendant. She poisoned their four kids against him. Thou he does have a relationship with his daughters. And had one with his one son until he died suddenly two years ago. His other son won’t speak to either of his parents.
Funny how the judge gives him crap about not having a relationship with his kids, and when he tries to explain he is cut off right away. Defendant seems like the type to lie to the kids. very common in toxic women. i feel bad for the kids
People are quick to call the defendant a liar but the plantiff is a poor father. There are many things he could’ve done to make himself present with his kids. He moved to a different state away from them and got married and financially set with another kid. No where did he try to stay and get glimpses of his kids. Come to them or events. I’ve seen fathers go Through worst and make more effort. They are no older and he at the end basically said it’s too late to fix anything. His son had to come to him. He didn’t even know where they were in school. She could be a liar but that still doesn’t make him a decent person. The end and his comment sealed it for me. He didn’t try to tell his daughter he loved her or nothing
He kept fighting for against the harassment & for child support payments but couldn’t petition for custody/visitation? He only fights against his reputation/control and money. THATS why the judge went for him.
Why ask them a question, multiple questions and then interrupting them!? Why does not only JM but JJ do this?? Really makes me wonder if they're use to getting away with it in their home lives?!
Milian is so sexist! She never should have been allowed to be a judge, and now, a mediator. The way she treated the plaintiff was completely unlawful for her position.
All a woman has to do is holler ABUSE, and every woman judge in America will side with her. U Fortunately , didn’t work in this case because the plaintiff was solidly prepared.
Not saying she's lying about the abuse, but if they are divorced why in the world would she keep his last name all these years? The minute I got divorced I started using my maiden name and it's been that way ever since. Stop hanging onto the past lady.
I can tell you based on experience, divorced mothers will do everything to alienate their children against the father. I absolutely believe the plaintiff when he says the defendant interfered with his ability to have a relationship with his kids.
I'm sorry, but this "believe all women" attitude the judge always has is so frustrating. Now, I don't know if the plaintiff was actually physically abusive to the defendant. But as soon as it was mentioned, the judge lost her cool and patience with the plaintiff. Their marriage and the breakdown of it has little to nothing to do with this specific case. JM's attitude was so nasty and unnecessary here. The only judge who could understandably feel any frustration with the litigants is the family court judge.
The kids pay the cost for these relationships
Sadly yes
The sad reality 😢
In so many of these cases, the parents hate each other more than they love their kids and it’s the kids who pay the price for that the most.

How? She gave him his money back but she wasn't buying his BS about no contact with his children. Paying mandatory child support is not being a parent. Is being forced to do what should be done because most people won't!
the judge should keep the same energy she's giving the dad to the mother as well. they're both wrong in different ways. I hate when she's immediately against the dads in cases like this. I rarely see her giving the mothers the scoldings they need & deserve! They end up leaving there thinking they were in the right, which makes it worse.
Facts she is anti men
Absolutely. Seems like mom poisoned the daughters mind at least. JM talked right over him.
JM was clearly biased and had not done her homework. It was so sad when it came out that she had tried to put him in jail for phone calls she made and lied about. Daughter doesn’t want to have a relationship with dad because she has been poisoned by the defendant. Defendant KNEW she owed the money and like nails on a chalkboard kept on taking the money. I feel badly for the children who have been cheated out of a relationship with the dad.
They love blaming the fathers
@@tricetaylor7918 theyre women!!!
Lol he goes to answer her question then before he can answer properly she asks him another question
this is why so many people complain about this after the case to Harvey as she does it, she rumbles on and does not allow the plaintiff to answer
It's wild how the judge grilled the man but changed her tone when questioning the female. And why wouldn't the judge allow the man 2 give his explanation to the $90??? She is sooooolo biased
Exactly. I'm usually on her side but she assumed that he was in the wrong and trying to avoid his kids just because he is the man in the situation. She clearly is preventing him from talking to the children and is giving them biased information so they don't want to contact him. At least he pays his child support and was there for him when his son needed him.
He's not a bad father, and the judges tone with him before getting any actual proof, was uncalled for.
@@ThisIsDjYigytugd18 and over? She can’t stop for sure
Facts
Now he's abusive for wanting his money 🙄
Isn’t that the way it works the guy is the bad guy
The Defendant was found guilty of "alienating" the parental rights of the Plaintiff FOUR TIMES. And the fact that the Plaintiff would refuse to take a plea on the harrassment charges(which were later dropped), makes me think the Defendant poisoned her children against their father. The children lost a father because he was tired of constantly dealing with the Defendant. He should have been stronger for his children(and fought to be in their lives), but he's only human. So sad.
I know a guy like this. A bit of a douche but not an abuser. Left his wife for another woman, his ex really turned them against him. He fought and fought but met such resistance from her and then the kids that he eventually settled for minimal time with them and puts his focus on his youngest, from his 2nd marriage. He's a bit of a jerk but the 1st wife could never set aside her hatred to let the kids grow their own relationships with him.
You, me and others put it together quickly but JM seems to have wanted to vilify him
He did all that but never petitioned for custody? He wasn’t that tired and didn’t want to see them that bad
@@EChristian329he probably didn’t meet the income eligibility for a free lawyer and probably didn’t have the funds for a lawyer. Cut him some slack.
@@jennifer_mertens she was found guilty four times because there were four children. My father pulled the same crap, we all grew up and had our own families and didn’t have much to do with either of them. My father unalived himself, wasn’t found until he was unrecognizable and it took the authorities weeks to find any one of us. none of us cared and no one but my brother went to make cremation arrangements. If anyone wonders what happens when the children grow up … they go live their lives.
That daughter looks like a Rembrandt painting. 6:20
That's beautiful!
She knew she owed him
Over the years. I think his ex-wife did deliberately poisoned his children against him. I don't believe her DV story. Why would the youngest daughter, hate her father, if she doesn't even know him ? Because her mother taught her to hate him.
His daughter is basing her judgement of her father based on his actions
Typical move.
@@biancalathetravelerssoulhope you don't do the same to you kids, but with that comment you Baby daddy is F'ed.🤷🏽♂️
Or? Maybe not having her father around caused resentment?? A child knows when u don’t gaf
The daughter is beautiful!👸 i can't imagine having every lame exuse to never see my kid. What a shame. 🥀
Judge is starting to show her bias and disdain for men.. As a man... I guess, I'll show mine and not watch anymore.
Good one.
I have commented on this in many of JM cases, she's a feminist who hates men. It shows every time. This is why JJ is a real one cause she sees through women or men and tell them off when they pull this ISH
Why does the court always “hate”, men ! The women are always “right”! Judge you are not bias!
The daughter is very sweet, an innocent victim in this ugly mess.
Feel bad for the kids
When being greedy and turning the kids against their Dad is more important, this is what happens. She owes him the money and being that the relationship with 3 of his kids his strained, he really has nothing to lose by suing. This is a sad case. Also, I feel child support should end at 18 once the child is legally an adult, regardless if they live at home or not or enrolled in school. Obamacare states parents can keep their adult children on their benefits until the age of 26 and that is enough as far as I am concerned.
Well said
GIVE THAT MAN HIS $ BACK NOW...U KNOW UR NOT ENTILTED TO IT!!! HORRIBLE MOTHER!!!
Thank you.
Both of these parents are one big train wreck I hope their children are away from both and happy now in their lives.
THe dad is a decent human.
This is another case where the ex wife uses the kids as a tool for revenge against her ex husband. I also believe that support should end on the children's 18th birthday. At that point, they're legally adults. They can leave home, join the military, work full time in factories and so on. This woman, like most, want to milk the last drop of blood from her ex. She's vile.
Agreed
I agree, with the exception of paying a portion of college tuition, if applicable, up to 4 years.
He’s weird that everyone who here is like oh poor him, but he’s the only one that did all the talking and he seemed very toxic himself. He could have gotten an attorney and fought for his kids. That’s what you do as a parent.
Attorneys cost money and child support for four kids is expensive. I am gay and understand that.
Also most of us have been around long enough to remember when women were NOT viewed as capable of abuse. And that the family courts sided with the mothers more often than not. It took extreme measure for fathers to get single custody.
Lawyers costs tens of thousands of dollars. And if a man is paying child support for four children, there’s not much left.
If I were in her situation I would keep it too . Homeless and caring for the children alone !
Learn to listen and comprehend and stop being biased. This is 20y later so she ain't homeless, she's a thief. And all the evidence points that her is the abuser and using the court system to harass the plaintiff. 😂😂 No accountability 🤦🏽
Once again Marilyn attempts to raise the defendant, a woman who is CLEARLY and purposely withholding money from this man due to overpayment, while attempting to dishonor him and his position. He was right, the courts proved his position. It’s financially & viable the process, yet she treats him horribly and disrespectfully. She is rude and biased. We all know how she rules when someone says they’re Latino or Cuban, or if they are a woman and you have unsubstantiated claims made by a woman who was scolded by the courts previously for deception. Marilyn is rude and I’ve been amazed at the amount of ppl that have let her disrespect them without merit . She could not act that way in a real court. She would have been disciplined and removed for her never ending biases.
Taking care of your kids includes being there for them...not just money!
Hard to be there for them when she is actively preventing him from seeing the kids, so much so that he won 4 times for her trying to prevent his parental rights. At least he makes sure to pay his child support and was there with open arms when his son came to him for help.
The judge shut right up once he stated his evidence and that blob in the defendant booth didn't say a thing.
He’s fighting over nothing but hasn’t missed any meals. He just sits around thinking of ways to stay in their lives. If he just did what the Court ordered, but he can’t. He has to be in control and he won’t get out of her life. Once the kids are all grown and gone, she should change her name, move and go completely no contact. Give her two years and she’ll be a new person.
Feminist logic probably in the same situation
@@techoperatives2232 Yes, I’m a feminist and when a woman takes her four small children to a shelter it is the man who is abusing them. They never have the class to recognize what small, insecure men they are by abusing their own families. At least I’ve lived long enough to find out how the story ends. My father was the same way. This year he committed suicide and wasn’t found until after he was unrecognizable. I call it Recliner Justice and I have the pictures. He made his choices and suffered his consequences. It was a blip in our lives and it didn’t take more than three days to settle back into them as if nothing happened.
@@robynetaylor6605 Robyn, you’re projecting very hard. You do not know what that man is/was thinking. The kids are grown up and also some of emancipated themselves, hence the lawsuit to get back money P overpaid THAT A FAMILY COURT JUDGE ALREADY RULED ON. The litigants have been divorced for nearly 20 years at the time of the taping. You say your father was the same way, so perhaps your mother played a role in you being so filled with anger in 2024. This case is not about your life. I hope you find peace and forgiveness where necessary.
@@cindymann3673 In civil court a Judge’s ruling is only as good as the enforcement, which is almost nil. I believe her about DV. Look at him trying to get $2K from her. She’s not going to pay him and she already knows the court is going to wag their finger at her and that’s it. Statute of Limitations will kick in and he still won’t get his money.
The defendant needs therapy. She's using the alleged abuse as a crutch.
I bet the defendant has never had a job
Probably right.
Father of the year. He claims the mother was abusing the kids but did nothing to get custody. Only went to court to get his payments lowered.
Have you been through the court system with an unfit mother who lies to get crap she doesn’t need or to keep you in the hole with how your money is spent? Having a judge deny your waivers or appeals denied thanks to the ex who gets her motions free due to being the custodial parent with a small income she admits but omits over $12,000 in hidden income, so she can screw you over while denying your rights to your child b/c she lives several hours away???? No. You do not know this man’s life when it comes to what happened to make it so he doesn’t have contact with his children… Just the little that we hear. That is the story of what my husband & I are currently going through with his unstable ex & the child she for some stupid reason thinks b/c he was punished for lying is ABUSE. Yes there’s mentally unstable & vindictive asshole women who do that to men & child custody situations. He just might be a dead beat. But don’t assume & make a comment like you are involved so you can make a statement like that.
Exactly, wouldn't you fight for your kids if the parent was abusing them??? Dude ran away and abandoned his kids... he's a bum.
And that's it. 👌
@RileyCullen1 sounds like you're projecting your own pain onto this case... it's clear in the video that this man is a menace to his family and the mother did the right thing right get far away from him and let the courts decided how much she gets from him. I saw no manipulation on her part at all. She defended herself calmly the best she could. I'm sorry your situation has embittered you..
@@alphawhiskey2922that’s bc you are a feminist and more than likely a single mother. She was proven through phone records she was in the wrong.
I believe the wife. I ended up running to a shelter to get away from one of my exes too and nobody drags for kids to a shelter because they’re not being abused. Also, the trauma of running and restarting over is unbelievable! So again she had good reason to leave him.
Why would he move that far away from his kids … smh
Give the money to the kids.. dad.
Mothers need to remember, if their going to keep their kids from their dads, the children do grow up and will find out the truth and at the end will end up hating their mother, thinking they could’ve had a relationship the whole time they were young. But I do agree in this scenario, the plaintiff should’ve tried harder to see his kids, that’s what family court’s are for.
I hate people like this. You hate your ex,, so you take it out on your children. Who ever has to pay child support should be glad they are supporting their children. They are you kids. Fuck your ex and fuck your feelings. You had sex, do your duty and take care of your kids.
All I hear this guy do is make excuses for not doing things. Moms or dads that do this to their kids are POS. Try harder to see your kids. Stop putting the blame on your ex like your baby. If you love your kids, fight for them.
Best comment so far! 😆 I believe that he was abusive. I also believe that he’s a deadbeat who didn’t utilize the court to fight for custody. I also believe that she knew he overpaid and kept the money but I also detest men who sue for child support overpayment. If you wanted your children- you would have applied for joint custody. Excuses excuses.
Happy Tuesday from New Zealand. Yay People's Court ❤
Happy Monday from New York 🎉🎉
The judge and the mother are both Wrong! The daughter should not hear the negative stuff about the relationship!
It sounds like the husband is dealing with a lot from her actually. I get that a lot of times a father isn't there for the kids during a divorce, but it really sounds like she's putting a lot of stuff in those kids heads to where they don't want to see him and she is preventing him from getting more contact with them.
He even has proof of her making false claims against a restraining order, yet they are making it seem like he is the one doing wrong. I don't like the tone the judge is trying to set here as if all women who take their kids are saints.
It’s weird to my ears to hear them referring to them as a “child” when talking about them going to college, or the son being kicked out of mom’s house so the son can get back with his wife? Emancipation when adults? Color me confused. PS people come down on the judge for attacking plaintiff, but he left the state early on growing up, that doesn’t sound like he wanted a relationship
The plantiff is not an angel that people are saying. You can tell by his actions and words are vicious and petty.
The defendant isn’t perfect at all but I believe that he abused her.
Child support until age 22?! His lawyer really failed him🤦♀️
That old woman looks goofy with hair dyed black.
plaintiff: "I am STEVE!" Ohh wait ...
I hate when a judge is biased and this one most definitely was.
I hate when a dumbass rando on this channel is biased and you definitely are...
9:32 - LOL, the judge shuts it down quickly when she realizes that misandry exists and men are treated horribly in court. Can't let that get out Judge! That little interrogation didn't go as you had planned, did it?
Agreed
Right. I thought it was just me, but it's good that other commenters agree.
Watch out judge your prejudice is showing and the defendant looks like a real piece of work!
The plaintiff looked so tired of having to deal with his ex.
Oh my holy wow well that's interesting no refunds that's straight up garbage move.
I remember this too.
Kinda messed up how judge Milian was ready to grill this man over abuse but once he started telling how he had legit evidence that proved the woman was the problem she shut down all line of questioning about it
Perfect timing! Lunch and and JM!
Right! I made tacos and now I am watching People's Court. 🌮🌮🌮
@@nightsky3981 🌮🌮🌮🌮 hope you enjoyed
Harvey asks the dumbest questions.
He’s so annoying
The plaintiff was not abusive for asking,(and getting), the overpayment he was owed.
She looks like the type of woman who speaks badly about her baby’s daddy in front of her kids. And doesn’t let the dad see his kids
I have no understanding of why Milian did not do her homework in this case. She was blatantly biased and repeatedly talked over and dismissed the plaintiff. The more I watch the reruns the sadder I am about her role in the People’s Court.
So courts keep dads out of the home only to ask why he isn’t there.
She had a restraining on him. The order against him poisoned the relationship with kids after 2yrs.
I believe this man. Too bad mom didn’t think of her kids instead of herself.
“Get divorced already”…… doesn’t exactly fit when they got divorced well before this case came to fruition
Judge Milian was wrong for treating that man like that.
I really hate when she gets in these moods where she absolutely refuses to let people speak or explain things. Then you tell them they have the burden of proof. Well maybe hush & give them a genuine opportunity to do so??
JM wanted to hate the plaintiff so bad and kept scolding him when he told the truth. Yet the defendant gets off free? So sexist
She is a feminist
Dude, the plantiff literally said he has a new wife - the defendant isn't his wife anymore. :P
But legit, the children really do pay more than money could ever buy in these cases. Money doesn't buy sanity, and these kids are gonna be losing it every time these parents get together if they can't control their feelings toward each other.
This woman knew she owed this man. Pay back the money. Thief.
My stepfather’s ex wife was like the defendant. She poisoned their four kids against him. Thou he does have a relationship with his daughters. And had one with his one son until he died suddenly two years ago. His other son won’t speak to either of his parents.
He's going to court over $2,000 that is money going toward his children?
But, they are both toxic as heck.
Whenever the judges ADHD gets bad she gets fed up and stops listening. I truly hate that cause she doesn’t always make correct judgements.
Funny how the judge gives him crap about not having a relationship with his kids, and when he tries to explain he is cut off right away. Defendant seems like the type to lie to the kids. very common in toxic women. i feel bad for the kids
People are quick to call the defendant a liar but the plantiff is a poor father. There are many things he could’ve done to make himself present with his kids. He moved to a different state away from them and got married and financially set with another kid. No where did he try to stay and get glimpses of his kids. Come to them or events. I’ve seen fathers go
Through worst and make more effort. They are no older and he at the end basically said it’s too late to fix anything. His son had to come to him. He didn’t even know where they were in school. She could be a liar but that still doesn’t make him a decent person. The end and his comment sealed it for me. He didn’t try to tell his daughter he loved her or nothing
JM is not listening to both. The plaintiff had all the evidence.
JM was rude and disrespectful. Matching plumbing doesn't make her right.
He kept fighting for against the harassment & for child support payments but couldn’t petition for custody/visitation? He only fights against his reputation/control and money. THATS why the judge went for him.
Maybe the judge should realize he was paying money my guess in alimony and child support for four kids.
Why ask them a question, multiple questions and then interrupting them!? Why does not only JM but JJ do this?? Really makes me wonder if they're use to getting away with it in their home lives?!
Poor kids, that always breaks my heart to see.
Horrible mother. Thinks of herself not her kids. She owes that man money. She needs to get a job the gravy train is over
Milian is so sexist! She never should have been allowed to be a judge, and now, a mediator. The way she treated the plaintiff was completely unlawful for her position.
I heard of 21 if they going to college. My uncle had to pay child support to my cousin. While she was in college from 18 to 21.
All a woman has to do is holler ABUSE, and every woman judge in America will side with her. U
Fortunately , didn’t work in this case because the plaintiff was solidly prepared.
He has pain child support. Sad she knew he over paid. Give the whole thing back he is not supporting you. Just the kids get a freaking job
Not saying she's lying about the abuse, but if they are divorced why in the world would she keep his last name all these years? The minute I got divorced I started using my maiden name and it's been that way ever since. Stop hanging onto the past lady.
I can tell you based on experience, divorced mothers will do everything to alienate their children against the father. I absolutely believe the plaintiff when he says the defendant interfered with his ability to have a relationship with his kids.
Some. You state it like they all do, and that is simply not true.
Judge, shut up and let the poor man talk.
He won a little money but lost so much more.
No he got what was rightfully his.
I'm sorry, but this "believe all women" attitude the judge always has is so frustrating. Now, I don't know if the plaintiff was actually physically abusive to the defendant. But as soon as it was mentioned, the judge lost her cool and patience with the plaintiff. Their marriage and the breakdown of it has little to nothing to do with this specific case. JM's attitude was so nasty and unnecessary here. The only judge who could understandably feel any frustration with the litigants is the family court judge.
I can't watch this. Is this supposed to be entertainment?
The plaintiff is not a nice guy. He had a million excuses for everything….
