3:00
he's got a couple of comedians here, but he's gonna hang with him.
3:02
Don't you worry about it, dan Um, I want to introduce you to
3:07
the plaintiff. His name is Shawn Boyd. Sean Sean Boyd is a comedian
3:10
and he is suing for four thousand dollars for performance fees unpaid by the defendant,
3:16
Philip dent Philip Dentz Philip d d as exactly right now. Sean is
3:23
a comedian from Cleveland, oh h oh um, and he has been traveling
3:30
around doing comedy for a while. It is his thing. And he has
3:36
a friend whose name is Ben. Now, Ben is a witness for mister
3:42
Boyd in this case. But Ben is also the one who originally introduced Sean
3:47
to Philip. Okay, so he knew Philip introduced Philip to Sean, and
3:52
then they kind of you know, struck up some sort of relationship. Now,
3:55
um, Sean, uh, Sean want Basically, Philip um asked Sean,
4:02
Hey, would you be willing to put together a lineup for a show.
4:05
Okay, I got a guy who wants some comedians to come in,
4:10
So let's do something. You get some comedians, you can headline, you
4:14
do thirty minutes. It'll be big, it'll be big fun. Okay.
4:17
So um, basically, they have an hour and a half show and he's
4:21
gonna bring in the comedians, he'll headline. Uh, he's gonna make the
4:26
flyers. He's gonna get the tickets sold, and they are gonna do a
4:30
split of the ticket sales fifty fifty fifty fifty tickets fifty. Now, Philip
4:36
says, untrue, Okay, we were gonna split it. Uh. He
4:42
doesn't know how to do math. So originally he said we're gonna do twenty
4:46
twenty four and uh. And Alex is like, do you mean you're gonna
4:50
do a third apiece? He's like, yes, the bartender is getting a
4:54
third Okay, So there's three people. M is there any written thing written
5:00
down? We'll get to Okay, So four hundred people show up to the
5:03
show, twenty dollars a pop, eight thousand dollars at the door, a
5:09
little all right, so um, he brings up his his buddy, Ben
5:13
Palmer. Now, Ben Palmer, he is a I'll just you know,
5:19
he's a lanky fella and just awkward and there's a good chance he's high.
5:25
And uh. He was the opener. Okay, okay, he was gonna
5:30
do twenty minutes at the front and Sean told him that he was going to
5:33
pay him one thousand dollars out of out of Um, so very nice for
5:40
twenty minutes, and he said he did great rush um. Now, Phillips
5:45
says he did not do great, just nothing. Going thirty to forty people
5:49
got up and walked out. Ten percent ten percent of the audience was like
5:55
not at to this guy because he was picking on the crowd. Um he
5:59
uh, Phil says, hey, Ben, how about you tell the precious
6:02
joke? And apparently he did a joke about precious and there was a woman
6:09
in the front row that got upset and he said, oh, you're probably
6:13
upset because you are oh my god. Now, um, Sean says,
6:23
uh, Sean's like listen. Everyone loved it. After after the show.
6:27
After everyone did the comedy Iro and a half show, a bunch of people
6:30
came up said they loved the show. We got a bunch of Facebook follows
6:34
afterwards. People were loving, loving the comedy. And uh, Philip is
6:41
like, that is just not true. Um, people kept coming up.
6:46
I had to give out some refunds. I gave everybody a free drink.
6:50
Everybody got a free to make everybody happier because of how bad the comedy was.
6:55
That's what he says. I think Philip says that he had to give
7:01
four thousand dollars to the owner of the venue. What neither of these people
7:06
own the venue, Philip and own the venue. He's just he's a promoter.
7:10
He's a promoter, so he gets the venue. Um. So there
7:15
is a contract, and in this contract it says that they will split it
7:21
fifty twenty four. Says they'll split it fifty fifty in the contract. It's
7:27
written down. So I don't know, not after the gate, not not
7:30
after not after paying the venue. It's fifty percent of the door So the
7:35
ticket sales. Yeah, Um, and I guess the bartender gets to keep
7:40
his tips? Would be how that would typically work? Um, Philip claims
7:45
that the offensive jokes void the contracts because of how much money I had to
7:50
give up? Is that to make people happy? But he also said they
7:55
were going to go twenty four twenty four, twenty four Phillips a dufus he
8:00
um And uh so he's very you know, he's upset people were getting upset.
8:07
Um and he I don't know where the owner would money's I don't know
8:11
where the owner's money was supposed to come from. That's not in the contract.
8:15
The contract just basically state said it will be a fifty fifty split at
8:18
the of the door sales between Sean and fill up. And now it's time
8:24
for judge X roll. Yeah, it's clearly four thousand dollars for cl Clint
8:26
or Sean or Dave what's his name is Sean Big Sean? Four thousand dollars
8:31
for Sean. Philip's wrong shown his right. It's in the contract split fifty
8:35
fifty. I don't know what you want for me. This is a no
8:37
brainer, Judge Jogs says. Listen comedy always offends somebody. Yeah. I
8:43
was at a comedy show once and I got picked on, and I thought
8:46
it was hilarious. I did arrest him afterwards, big lass from the crowd,
8:52
alex Um. But someone's always gonna get offended. You got you gotta
8:56
work that in. You gotta figure that out. Four thousand dollars. Yeah,
8:58
no, mister boyd, what you think's going to happen here? I
9:01
don't know what Philip thought. Come in hot with twenty four twenty four,
9:05
twenty four it's on you. He's like, he what he said though specifically
9:11
was uh, it was not fifty percent, And Joe Joggs goes, what
9:16
wasn't He was like twenty four three and he's like, are you trying to
9:20
say split three ways? And he's like yeah, and he's like, okay,
9:24
so so third thirty three and third would be split three ways twenty four
9:35
three? You know, figure it out twenty four three now now Ben,
9:41
uh, my boy, Ben Palmer. Uh, he gets his one K
9:45
baby, I guess he's gonna get that one. He's just over they're doing
9:50
pressure checks. We also got to see a little bit of Sean's comedy work.
9:54
We had a video of some coming not funny funny. Yeah, but
9:58
he got three thousand dollars so and he got publicity. It strikes me as
10:01
the they browth lying to a certain extent, like I guarantee you the comedy
10:05
show did not go great as Shawan says it did, and and as u
10:09
Ben says it did, and I guarantee you it wasn't a disaster like Philip
10:13
says it was. It's somewhere in between. Well, all because we've been
10:16
we've done comedy shows before, technically speaking in bars and stuff. All I'm
10:20
saying though, is like to get in four hundred people, that's a lot
10:24
of like, yeah, that's a big bull. So you gotta at least
10:26
have some sort of skill, That's right. You can't like, I don't
10:28
wonder people didn't stick around for just time. I don't know four hundred people
10:33
to invite us to something. So that has to have some sort of he
10:35
has to have some sort of following. Sean Boyd, So shout to Sean
10:37
Boyd. Shout out to Sean. I'm gonna take a quick let's do let's
10:41
do it here on yo, Gavel Gavel is back. We had an Alex
10:54
and now start for Judy. We haven't done a Judy in the Judy in
10:58
a while. You're not a Judy fan? Yeah, And every time I
11:01
want to give her another shot. I think I just need to go find
11:05
old because new like the newer episodes of Judy are just her talking the whole
11:11
time. Sure, I imagine it's how those people feel about me on deck
11:15
the home, like it's like there are other things to do here. It's
11:18
never like you never she she just tells the story and then ask for confirmation
11:24
for the whole thing. And it's like she's got places the story, she's
11:30
got the whole report. She's just going through it and does this happen?
11:31
Does this happen? And if they say anything that's even remotely not on the
11:35
paper, she dives in and then just cuts them off at the pass over
11:39
and over again. And it's just it's just not it's just not my thing,
11:43
and tell me the story. Okay. Justin Hodge, Justin Hodge is
11:48
suing his mom, Caroline, Caroline with a seat. It's a different.
11:52
Last thing. You hate to see that. Sixteen hundred bucks yeah yeah,
11:58
yeah for a broken foe, uh, illegal eviction, return of property,
12:03
and moving costs. All of those things are in his suit. How much
12:07
again? Sixteen honda against his mom? All right, Justin looks like one
12:11
of James McAvoy's characters from Split Um and he I don't. I don't know
12:18
if we can make fun of him or not. He is very serious about
12:22
this, but I think he might also be probably on the spectrum. Um.
12:26
He does not call he calls judge judy, just the word honor all
12:31
time, yes, honor, no honor, never your honor, always honor,
12:37
say anything. She never says anything. He also starts every sentence with
12:41
basically, so basically and every time she corrects him, not basically tell me
12:46
what happened, And he can't. He can't. It's like a tick.
12:50
He can't stay. Yeah. Um, so he was born in September of
12:54
two thousand and one. Everybody feel old just yet that he can sue for
12:56
eviction. Yeah, that's when I graduated high school. Um. And for
13:01
he lived the first thirteen years of his life with his aunt since he was
13:05
three months old. Um uh no, no, no, no, no.
13:09
It actually wasn't in bell Air but close different Auntie. Um. And
13:11
he did that with the approval of the mom. The mom agreed to that.
13:16
Uh, the aunt got aunt got uh guardianship. We know what's going
13:22
on with the mom. You don't know, but she agreed and she was
13:24
fine with it. Um at age thirteen, Uh, the aunt said she
13:28
was moving to Louisiana. They're currently in organ Mom's losing our aunt is losing
13:33
to moving to Louisiana. I'll get it here. It comes and she gives
13:39
him the choice, you can move with me to Louisiana, or you can
13:43
move back in with your mom and live with her here in Oregon. He
13:46
chooses to move back in with his mom in Oregon. Interesting, and Mom
13:52
was okay, that was great with it, said, have you ever stayed
13:54
with your mom? Yes? I would spend the night there on weekends,
13:56
especially when I was younger and then growing up. I would do occasion,
14:00
but on weekends we were fine. Never an issue. So Um sometime into
14:05
their Clearly he lived there for six years, so when he was nineteen or
14:09
eighteen, I guess, because this happened in nineteen. In October of ninth
14:13
September of nineteen, they got in a huge fight with each other. They
14:20
called the police. His phone was broken. Do we know about what we're
14:24
gonna get there? His phone was broken, and he his computer screen was
14:30
cracked, and his computer. She kept his computer and wouldn't give it back
14:33
to him, and he still has closed there and he wants all that back.
14:35
The screen was cracked, but the phone would still turn on the phone.
14:41
We'll put unpack it right now. It's probably a bad way to do
14:43
it, but that's how they did it in the court. So Judy says,
14:45
okay, first of all, you're nineteen. You live in your mother's
14:48
house. You're not a tenant. Do you have a job. Do you
14:50
pay rent? And he says yes, and she says I have here.
14:54
You got fired from your job in March. He said, I did,
14:58
but they hired me back because they had staffing issues. They hired me back
15:01
in September and he said. She said, but you left by October first,
15:05
so you were not working or paying rent from March to September. And
15:07
he said no, I was not paying rent for those six months, nor
15:11
had he ever. I think the plan was for him in his head,
15:15
but he never actually did it. She said, so you're not a tenant,
15:18
you're her son who bought you the phone. He said, my mom
15:20
bought me the phone. And she says, okay, that sounds very nice
15:24
of her. How did she break it? And he said, well,
15:26
we're in this big fight, and I'm texting my aunt that I'm going to
15:30
move back with her, and Mom takes the phone and throws it against the
15:33
wall. Phone goes up against the wall. It no longer will plug in
15:39
or charge at all. So and then Judy says, okay, well it
15:43
says here that you picked up a frying pan. Wow, okay, And
15:50
he said, yes, honor, I did did pick up. Why did
15:54
you pick up a frying pan? It was for my own protection. My
15:56
mom was coming after me. Yes. Did she hit you? No,
16:00
but she was coming after me. Why was she coming after you? Well,
16:04
she turned off the air condition, and I turned it back on.
16:07
Uh. And the thing about our house is is that the air condition and
16:11
the heat, when you turn it on, it goes throughout the house.
16:15
That is a thing, that is the thing in there. So yeah,
16:18
so they might have they might have a thing called central central heating and air.
16:22
I believe it's what that's called. She turned it off. I wanted
16:26
to turn it back on. She was cold, wanted it off, and
16:30
so I got She got upset that I turned it back on. She turned
16:33
it off. I got mad at her. I hit the floor a few
16:37
times with the frying pan. And then I threw the frying pan on the
16:38
floor, and Judge Judy says, okay, uh, did you damage the
16:44
floor? He said no uh, And she said, then you called the
16:47
police and he said no, the neighbor overheard us and probably the frying pan,
16:52
and the neighbor called the police. Sure. So Judge Judy at this
16:55
point says, okay, she's not even talked to the mom yet, not
16:59
even talked to them mom. Mom's just over there. Aside from confirming when
17:02
he moved in. The mom's just like yeah. Uh. The judge says,
17:04
okay, uh, police report, we got a police report. No,
17:10
don't have a police report. The kid says, I do have two
17:14
evidence. I have cut and then he says I have two evidence, and
17:18
then he says I have couple evidence and she says police report. And he
17:22
says, no, I don't have the police report. I have evidence about
17:25
my computer, and she says, what's the evidence. He said, okay,
17:27
So I have a computer I bought with my own money, and then
17:30
I had a screen a monitor that I would plug my computer in to watch
17:34
my movies. That's what he said. When I came back to get all
17:37
my stuff, The screen was cracked, the computer was nowhere to be found.
17:41
Uh, And judge says, well, why didn't you take that stuff
17:44
with you? It seems pretty important. Well, I left, my friend
17:45
picked me up from my house. I left, I had to come right
17:48
after. That's right, that's right, that's right. So um, she
17:52
said, you purchased the computer with your own money? He said, yeah,
17:56
she did you ever receive No? I paid in cash. Where'd you
17:57
get the cash? She didn't have a job. I purchased it with cash,
18:02
three hundred dollars from Target. I got the cash from my friend.
18:06
She says, the friend have a name, Yes, he does, doesn't
18:08
give the name, she says. She says, is your friend dead?
18:12
He says, no, the friend's not dead. Then I'd love his name.
18:15
And he says, my friend's name is Devin. She says, do
18:18
you still see Devin? And he said yes, but we get an argument
18:22
sometimes, So we're taking a break from talking to each other right now.
18:26
Yeah, you have to, and that's just good for your mental health.
18:30
And she said, well, how good of a friend is he? He
18:32
said, he picked Devin, picked me up when I had the fight and
18:33
took me away like I wish Devin was here, and she said, Devin
18:37
picked you up after the fight, gave you three hundred dollars. Why did
18:41
you stop talking to him? That doesn't make any sense the case, but
18:45
I'm very invested him. Yeah. Judy finally pivots to Christine the mom and
18:51
says, hey, wait, White, stop talking to Devin. Said,
18:52
just we get in fights sometimes, so we're just taking a break from So
18:56
we're taking a break, honor. You wouldn't get it, said, I
19:00
have I have a couple, a couple evidence. Uh. Christine says,
19:03
Look, I'm the one that paid for the laptop. What is Rick?
19:07
Can you like? What is Christine like? Can you paint a picture of
19:10
Christie? She's pretty, she's pretty, dumpy, she's she's very she's pretty.
19:15
She strike you as someone who has had a drug problem. I think
19:18
that there was a reason that she couldn't keep the kids initially. Um,
19:22
she seems very mild mannered in court. She's not well spoken either at all.
19:27
Yeah, she's very just. I don't know what else to subscribers.
19:30
Right, Um, she says, your honor, I paid for the laptop.
19:34
I have it with me in my possession right now. I don't know
19:38
him anything. She says, I paid for it. I paid for it.
19:41
And Judy says, where did you pay for the laptop? And she
19:44
goes, um Walmart? Says um, Walmart? Right? Um? How
19:51
much did you pay for it? Where does anyone get anything a lot like?
19:52
She says, like two hundred dollars? Uh? And she says you
19:56
have a laptop with it. She says yes. Um, did Devin give
19:59
her the money? And she says no, that would be great. That
20:03
came back in she said, did you give the phone or the laptop?
20:07
No? No, did you give the laptop to your son as a gift?
20:10
And she said yes I did. Judge Judy ready to rule. Can
20:17
you give me that breakdown again? Number one? Um, it's sixteen hundred
20:21
dollars. We don't get into the specific We don't get into specifics because he
20:25
wants the laptop or the money, which he says is three hundred. He
20:27
wants the laptop, wants the laptop, or the money he wants moving costs.
20:33
We never get in the specifics, the moving costs, he wants a
20:36
new the money for the phone. We don't hear the exact total. I
20:38
think what's going to happen if he's fine with either one. I think since
20:41
the computer is there, she seems like she's willing to give it up,
20:45
Like why else should we would she bring it. I think she's doing that
20:49
to avoid paying money. And so I think he will get the laptop,
20:53
since it was a gift in the first place anyways, But I also think
20:59
we will get some sort of lecture about you know, responsibility. Yeah,
21:03
you nailed it, she says, yeah, you're the gifts. It's a
21:07
gift. You gotta give the laptop back to him, a son, You're
21:08
gonna get the laptop back. Um. And then she says, listen,
21:12
your mother turns off the AC. It's her prerogative. It's her house.
21:15
Your mother owned as long as you're a teenager. This is not this is
21:18
not legal what she said. As long as you're a teenager living in your
21:22
mother's house, she owns the air that you breathe. And when he turns
21:29
twenty, well, I know, my thing is is nineteen. It's nineteen.
21:33
That's just not accurate. Well, I judge, I know you wanted
21:37
to be accurate, Judy, but it's not I mean, when you were
21:40
growing up, maybe back in the guilded age. I just you know,
21:47
there you have it all, it all done, gets the laptop back,
21:48
nothing else. Man, I just there's so much about them as humans that
21:55
I have so many questions about. Yeah. There, it's a strange.
21:57
It's an odd couplet about debt. Like it hurts me to my core that
22:03
Devin wasn't invited. Like, I hope that he's repaired his relationship with Devin,
22:07
you know what I mean, Just it's not just me Devin, Yeah,
22:14
yeah, yeah, I want him to have some friends. He clearly
22:18
was upset and thought he could do this with no evidence. He was very
22:22
much confident in the courtroom that he was going to get all this money,
22:26
and it was clear from the get go, like he just didn't have a
22:29
chance. Was he disappointed that he didn't get any money. No. In
22:32
fact, on the after show, he apologizes to her and she says,
22:37
apology, accepted your honor? All right, we did it, everybody?
22:45
Those are those are two good ones. There. You've got um a little
22:48
bit more Gabel coming at you this December. Are we taking time off for
22:52
the holidays? What are we doing? I think we are. I think
22:53
it's a full shutdown Brable Jim shutdown. There's a preble Dam shutdown. Um
23:00
the way God intended. That's right. Next week's the last one. Wow,
23:04

23:11
