Depends. If it's in the contract it's not exactly a favor it's just part of the agreement. I sold a house a year and a half ago and included a lease back because I needed some time between selling and buying a new house to move in to and needed the capital from the sale.
I rented back for a month after I sold my place because closing on the new place was delayed. Believe me, the place I moved out of was in much better condition than the one I moved in to.
The amount kept in escrow can be negotiated. Make it a high enough cost to trashing the place and the seller will polish the place with their tongue if necessary. In this case only 1500 was in escrow which is not a lot, especially in light of a lease back agreement. As long as money is there to cover damages then it is just a business arrangement rather than a favor.
What she did was not insurance fraud, the damages were real, the claim was real. She violated the terms of the rental agreement by not paying for the damages she caused.
@@raterusit is insurance fraud. If the surance company writes you a check to fix the damages and you just pocket the money. That’s insurance fraud. Also the lady was doing a lease back. Which means she no longer owns the home. So she can’t keep the money.
@@starfishsystems 😂☠️ nobody said anything about “false claim.” The claim is very real. HOWEVER!!!!!!!! She’s not allowed to just pocket the money. If insurance writes you a check to have something fixed or replace. You put that money in your pocket. THATS INSURANCE FRAUD!!!!!! Also she was doing a lease back. I’m sure you have no idea what a lease back is. A lease back is when your sell your home. The buyer has already signed the closing papers. Which means SHE NO LONGER OWNS THE HOME. So any insurance claim made to the house goes to the new owner. SO YES IT IS INSURANCE FRAUD. PLAIN AND SIMPLE. Maybe you need a bouncing ball to help you read. That way you may understand better 😂🫵
@@starfishsystems the fact you can’t see the lady was trying to make an extra $1000 on top of the $1500 in escrow is mind blowing. Or it could be that you like a lot of people don’t understand how mortgages work. The lady was trying to scam them out of $1000. The couple was trying to scam her out of her $1500 in escrow 😂🤷🏻♂️
Unbelievable defendant. The insurance company wrote a check for what it determined the damages would cost. That money goes to the plaintiffs. Period. 100%. Undeniable. If they repair it under that cost, it's still theirs. For her to say with a straight face that the overage should go to her for her trouble in PAYING HER OWN DEBTS is unbelievable. Thank you, JJ, for calling it like it is!
Had an agent withhold money meant for me. Said he never received the check. I traced it and had the issuer send me a copy of the endorsement to the agent's ac out. Went to his boss, presented the evidence, got money from his company, got him fired. Liars and cheats are everywhere in society.
JJ is very clever. She gives them the $1000 back. Now if they take back the escrow money for the son's damages, it actually costs the seller because this is directly out of her pocket. Including the judgement against her. Smart.
Most people don't realize JJshow pays all the judgments. So this way this scammer sending the check back or the money herself actually pays the judgement...not the show. Extra genius!
She’s just a common thief, nothing more. That has to be one of the most dishonest persons to appear on this show and believe me, that’s saying something. There’s a good reason her name is Karen.
The worst is the lady who sent a picture of 2 cell phones to the people who paid her $500, instead of sending the two phones, and smirked at Judy. It’s brutal. I think Judy might have sent CPS after her kids as they were being raised by the blatant con artists (per Judy).
That was a weird case. Weird dynamics there. And I have no idea why the defendant thought she could get away with saying the extra $400 was her turmoil. And then to hang onto the cheque for herself. Judge Judge thought of some names to call her lol.
That has got to be the fastest JJ has exposed a litigant for the scammer they are ! Defendant so dumb she even told the judge in her statement what her grift was .
And even more than that, pulling the money from escrow means the defendant, not the show, actually covered most of it. It actually cost her money to go on the show.
Ahahahaha.....Ahhahahaha! I wish somebody would have compensated us for the turmoil we had to endure when we sold our house. Nope. We just had to fix what the buyer wasn't happy with. SMH. The nerve!
Never ever ever Ever EVER ! E V E R !! let the person who has sold you a house stay on in it after the completion date when the house is yours .. not even for a couple of days.
Do you not have title insurance when you buy a house in the US? Last house I purchased the owner had $770 worth of water/sewage that were unpaid. Where I live water is charged to the property as account holder rather than to a specific person. We moved in and got this huge bill a month later which would have been like at least nine or more months of no payment. We went to the real estate lawyer they told us go to the title insurance we got paid the $770 within like two weeks and then they went to chase the previous owner up.
They don't live together, there was an agreement for the defendant to lease the house back from the plaintiffs for a period of time. Ie they bought it, but she paid them to stay beyond the closing date.
I think this first name is done for pretty much the rest of time. People have completely destroyed it through social media. It's now on the level of "Dick."
So since I'm dumb and poor, I have a question about Escrow if anyone can help.. When the defendant says "no, i have money in escrow" does that mean she has the ability to access that 1500 before they can? Just curious since I've no idea what that means.. Also, In advance..., I've already admitted I'm dumb, poor and don't understand so no need to mock me for it. Lol. Thanks 😅
Actually I think Judge Judy was wrong. She didn't give the plaintiffs a chance to prove the defendant's son damaged the house DURING the lease back. Which would have nothing to do with the closing, and make the defendant 100% liable.
Agreed. If the damage was done during the lease back period, they should have been compensated for that too. However they had a claim about damage to the foundation of their home, which made them look not very honest and Judges don't like this kind of behavior. Rule number 1: never try to scam the Judge, or he/she will bite you.
@@MikeB-Android-Teacher no. She is responsible . It's the same if you let an unlicensed driver drive your car and they have an accident. Your insurance would not pay. You would be responsible.
I don’t get why people like this woman agree to go on this show when they’re SO clearly in the wrong and should know they’re gonna get humiliated. Are they just that desperate to be on TV?
The smirk on the defendants face after Judge Judy called her a scammer is a dead giveaway of who she is as a person.
Fact, she hated being called out! 😅
Exactly
She looks psychotic in the thumbnail
💯
Yes JJ has this affect on people
"A scammer and a pig." I died laughing. This is exactly why you DO NOT do the sellers any favors. They need to be OUT when the sale is final.
Depends. If it's in the contract it's not exactly a favor it's just part of the agreement. I sold a house a year and a half ago and included a lease back because I needed some time between selling and buying a new house to move in to and needed the capital from the sale.

@Suzyb7806 your a gem. Very rare. Thank you for treating your landlord nicely. Shows your character. 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Judge Judy was ruthless. "She's a scammer and a pig." My Lord. hahaha
No filter either 😂😂😂😂😂😂
JJ speaks the truth! 😂. That smirk on the defendants face
Name and shame! LOVE IT!
Judge Judy was right!
😂😂😂
She should go to jail for insurance fraud.
What she did was not insurance fraud, the damages were real, the claim was real. She violated the terms of the rental agreement by not paying for the damages she caused.

She did not defraud the insurer by MISREPRESENTING THE CLAIM, therefore it's not insurance fraud. It's very simple.

This case has one of my most favourite moments ever from JJ at 2:26:
“You are so FFFFFFFFFFFull of it!” 🤣
Her name is Karen too 💀😭
I bet she wanted to say something else😅
Almost sounds like she wants to say "FFFFFFFFUCCCKIN' full of it!!" 😂😂
Unbelievable defendant. The insurance company wrote a check for what it determined the damages would cost. That money goes to the plaintiffs. Period. 100%. Undeniable. If they repair it under that cost, it's still theirs. For her to say with a straight face that the overage should go to her for her trouble in PAYING HER OWN DEBTS is unbelievable. Thank you, JJ, for calling it like it is!
Her name is Karen. This is perfect.
Still laughing 😂
LMAOOO
🎯👍😂
Oh for sure ,
That's the cherry on the top
Not really. “Karen” isn’t that vague of an insult. It means someone who overreacts. She’s just a thief.
Had an agent withhold money meant for me. Said he never received the check. I traced it and had the issuer send me a copy of the endorsement to the agent's ac out. Went to his boss, presented the evidence, got money from his company, got him fired. Liars and cheats are everywhere in society.
Good for you! Scammers need to be held accountable.
Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom.
good work someone else will likely hire that goof
Gotta love when JJ mocks them when they can’t think of an excuse or lie on the spot 😂
JJ is very clever. She gives them the $1000 back. Now if they take back the escrow money for the son's damages, it actually costs the seller because this is directly out of her pocket. Including the judgement against her. Smart.
Most people don't realize JJshow pays all the judgments. So this way this scammer sending the check back or the money herself actually pays the judgement...not the show. Extra genius!
The way she enjoyed being called a scammer and a pig proves that judge judy is accurate with her discription
She carries her first name so well ouch
She’s just a common thief, nothing more. That has to be one of the most dishonest persons to appear on this show and believe me, that’s saying something. There’s a good reason her name is Karen.
Karen’s gonna Karen!! 🤣
😂🤣
The worst is the lady who sent a picture of 2 cell phones to the people who paid her $500, instead of sending the two phones, and smirked at Judy. It’s brutal. I think Judy might have sent CPS after her kids as they were being raised by the blatant con artists (per Judy).
I feel bad for all the people named Karen who aren’t jerks. lol.
One thing she won't ever do cause she doesn't like it
That's caring
Her smiling, looking down, avoiding J.J.'s eyes, doing pauses when talking, laughing, her tone going up and down, you know she is lying.
No good deed goes unpunished. There's a reason why business matters are handled in a business-like way.
I just love judge Judy.😂 She could shut the devil up 😂 and he would say yes judge😂
That was a weird case. Weird dynamics there. And I have no idea why the defendant thought she could get away with saying the extra $400 was her turmoil. And then to hang onto the cheque for herself. Judge Judge thought of some names to call her lol.
Defendant has the perfect name: Karen!!!
The defendant really thought she was gonna be able to talk her way out of it
"The turmoil" 2:21- the reason in keeping the plaintiff's money! She is a joke😂
JJ hates having to pick up the tab for a pro scammer, so all she has at her disposal is to humiliate them in front of 10 million people. Good job
True lol
That has got to be the fastest JJ has exposed a litigant for the scammer they are ! Defendant so dumb she even told the judge in her statement what her grift was .
And even more than that, pulling the money from escrow means the defendant, not the show, actually covered most of it. It actually cost her money to go on the show.
The problem is, these kind of people can’t see the error of their way. One can only hope karma catches up with them one day.
WELL, it did in this case! Not only did she have to give them their money, millions of people saw this!!
JJ👩🏻⚖️: That makes her a scammer, and a PIG 🐷”
#SAVAGE 😂😂
Who else died when JJ said "what do you mean uhhh" 😭😭
Anyone else notice Karen got nervous and nodded in agreement when JJ said she scammed the insurance CO?
Ahahahaha.....Ahhahahaha! I wish somebody would have compensated us for the turmoil we had to endure when we sold our house. Nope. We just had to fix what the buyer wasn't happy with. SMH. The nerve!
She don't even have decency enough to be embarrassed. She continues to try to come up with another lie.
Exactly she has no remorse friends & family gotta 👀👀👀 for her
CALLING SOMONE AN ANIMAL WHICH HER FACE EXACTLY RESEMBLES 💯 LMAOOOO
“She’s a scammer and a pig…” 😂😂😂
What a coincidence.. the defendants name is Karen 😂😂😂
SNAP!!!! JJ was SERIOUSLY scathing.
You can tell that he NEVER wears ties 😁
Pro Tip, don't rent you house to the former owner! There are many more ways for this to go bad for you, the new owner than for them!
Boom! JJ ate her as a snack 😂
Never ever ever Ever EVER ! E V E R !! let the person who has sold you a house stay on in it after the completion date when the house is yours .. not even for a couple of days.
This is why I love Judge Judy.
The defendant's name couldn't be more perfect.
Karen living up to her name!
Doesn't JJ know that insurance companies often pay for "turmoil". Whaaaat😂?
yeah the turmoil they caused to someone elses house lol!
Of course she did, without even watching this...
I love watching the expressions and reactions from the people in the audience. Good fun.
The defendants appropriately named Karen.
All this defamation of pigs! 💔 Pigs are smart, sweet, and actually very clean animals.
The reference is to a human pig. 😂
Defendant is a Karen "nuff said 😂
Looks like a Karen, acts like a Karen, is named Karen... the joke makes itself.
Of COURSE her name is Karen!🤣🤣🤣
"what do you mean 'mmmm' " took me out
Damage to *THE FOUNDATION?!?* 😳 WTF???
The defendant has crazy lady eyes!😳
Her name is Karen. Enough said. 😂
People who dont clean up their dog's poop are the worst people.
And her name is Karen 🤣🤣..lordy lordy 🤣
No good deed goes unpunished. I don't help people anymore cause I always regret it later on.
The defendant is shameless. She is so obviously in the wrong.
The level of entitlement present in scociety today is just baffling.
I say this often.... it's pathetic.
This was a short, sweet case, and a great one for watching the audience react!
Love that her name is Karen 😂
What was the defendants eyes haha crazzzzzy
Alright folks we got us a "Karen" that just sweetens the case
J.J. is on that woman with the Quickness. 👀👀👀👀👀👀
Figures her name is Karen
"Karen" huh?....
I'm pretty sure "Full" wasn't the four letter F word JJ was thinking of...
Shes definitely a scammer.

Karens be karening
She’s is literally Karen😂
The defendants named turned out to be the most ideal for her.
That thumbnail lmfaoo 😂😂😂😂
Lmfao
I'm not sure why it would be a comfortable arrangement to live with someone you bought a house from.
They don't live together, there was an agreement for the defendant to lease the house back from the plaintiffs for a period of time. Ie they bought it, but she paid them to stay beyond the closing date.
Talk about _"CRAZY EYES"..._ *YIKES!* 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Her name is Karen after all!🤷🏻♀️🙄🤦🏻♀️😂😂
Hahahaha no wonder defendant's first name is Karen 2:31
Oh Karen, what did you do now??
Defendant is wicked 😢😢
She's a literal Karen!
And her name is Karen. Go figure!
I think this first name is done for pretty much the rest of time. People have completely destroyed it through social media. It's now on the level of "Dick."

I'm more shocked this channel didn't stretch this out into a 4 party episode 🙄
This is why you can’t be nice.
Actually I think Judge Judy was wrong. She didn't give the plaintiffs a chance to prove the defendant's son damaged the house DURING the lease back. Which would have nothing to do with the closing, and make the defendant 100% liable.
Agreed. If the damage was done during the lease back period, they should have been compensated for that too. However they had a claim about damage to the foundation of their home, which made them look not very honest and Judges don't like this kind of behavior. Rule number 1: never try to scam the Judge, or he/she will bite you.
It wasn't initially part of the case.
Even IF the defendants son did actually do some damage, unfortunately, if he's an adult, they would have to sue him, not her.
@@MikeB-Android-Teacher no. She is responsible . It's the same if you let an unlicensed driver drive your car and they have an accident. Your insurance would not pay. You would be responsible.
@@jake_ so, you think if someone hits your house with a car, they can't cause foundation damage? Yes, they can. Judge Judy never gave them a chance.
lesson learned from this episode... Never be nice to people or try to do favors....
Wooowww JJ chewed her head off
Her name is actually Karen! 😂🤣😂
FOLKS - if you ever give occupancy ALWAYS hold a damage escrow for exactly this reason
Mental.anguish defense ???? Nah won't fly lol
As they say in limbo dance, " how low can you go"
Of course, her name is Karen😂
Busted
I like it! JJ doesn't mess around!
My daughter Karyn: Thanks, Mom...
Me:
Why do pigs always get a bad rap.
Her name says it all🐈
A literal KAREN!!
Nice to see a Karen being _OWNED_ by Judge Judy (defendant = Karen by name, Karen by reputation). 😈🙃
And the court pays her thank you 💰
I don’t get why people like this woman agree to go on this show when they’re SO clearly in the wrong and should know they’re gonna get humiliated. Are they just that desperate to be on TV?
The look on this woman's face the second she is given screentime you can see in her eyes she's bat shit crazy, and keeps holding back a smirk. Whoa.
The ones with the wide eyes are always the crazy ones I’ve noticed.
Not 'Karen' 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Judy 101 Your Full Of it❤
