you, according to you --
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: $780.
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: That's all that
she has receipts for.
>> No, it's not, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: Have you --
>> Uh-oh.
>> Judge Judy: I'm not looking
at you now.
>> No, it's not.
>> Judge Judy: I'm not looking
at you now.
That's all that you
have receipts
for that I accept, $780.
What I want to know from you
is what was the cost
that you quoted her
for the second repair
to the car?
>> It was --
the labor was $390 --
>> Judge Judy: Show me.
Show me what the estimate --
>> Your Honor,
if you were to add them --
>> Judge Judy: I --
I don't want to hear from you.
This is not ending up
with $5,000 for you.
I want you to understand that.
>> I don't know how.
>> This is the motor job. Judgee
the first job.
just gave it to you.
>> Judge Judy: Is that for --
Yeah, that's the first one.
>> Judge Judy: $241.
>> That's the labor.
The parts is --
>> Judge Judy: Just --
>> On that yellow receipt.
>> Judge Judy: Just a second.
I'm interested in your receipts,
your bills.
Engine oil pan, $130,
spark plugs,
labor, all of this together
was 241.44 for the first job.
>> That's the labor,
not the parts.
The parts is the yellow receipt
that you have.
>> And those parts I purchased.
>> The amount that it cost,
the customer's payment,
what they owe is circled.
That's O'Reilly's, their --
their -- it's their prices.
He paid for those parts.
So she has to pay for her parts
and the labor.
>> Judge Judy:
I'm discounting this.
>> Okay.
>> Judge Judy: This is her
invoice
because you have a $5,000
ridiculous counterclaim
that I want you
to forget about, too.
Now, she has a car
that's maybe worth 1,500 bucks.
She brings it in to you
and you're charging her $1,500
to get the car up and running.
Is her car up and running now?
>> It can --
>> Judge Judy: Uh, shup!
Is her car running now?
>> Yes.
>> What?
>> Judge Judy: When was the --
>> The engine --
>> Since when?
>> The engine, the motor
is knocking.
>> Since when it been running?
>> You came, Ms. Jackie,
you came up there --
>> Judge Judy: Shh. Don't.
>> Are you serious?
>> Judge Judy: I'm going to
throw --
I'm gonna say goodbye to you.
Do you understand?
>> Yes, ma'am.
I understand, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: Great.
>> The motor is not
in the best condition.
The motor is knocking.
The motor was no good.
We bought the motor, um, used
to get the discounted price,
a good price for it.
So by the time she came
and made another payment
so that we could go ahead
and finish the job,
the 30-day warranty was over
and the -- it was done.
We told her
that we can fix it again.
But she has to buy a new motor
because she still owed.
He had already paid
for everything.
>> Judge Judy: He's complete.
With the money
that she paid you so far,
he's complete with his --
at least the parts
that he bought.
And she still
doesn't have a car.
>> The motor is $800 itself.
>> Judge Judy: The -- the motor
that you picked
to fix her car doesn't work.
>> There's a 30-day
warranty on it.
>> Judge Judy: The motor
that you picked on her car,
that never left your lot --
>> Mm-hmm.
>> Judge Judy: Doesn't work.
Now if she took the car out
and there was a 30-day warranty
and she drove the car around
for three weeks
and she started to have trouble
with it, who knows?
But the car never left your lot.
So if you picked a bad motor,
that's your problem
and your boss's problem.
>> Mm-hmm.
>> Judge Judy:
Do you understand?
>> I hear you.
>> Judge Judy: You hear me?
running or is it not running?
>> It's running.
It's not running
in the best condition.
>> Judge Judy: Now,
when you brought the car
in to them, was it running?
>> No, ma'am. It was towed in.
>> Judge Judy: It was towed in?
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: You can go
and get the car
and take it someplace else.
And I'm returning to you
the $780 that I find
that I have good receipts --
>> Your Honor --
>> Judge Judy: That I find
that I have good receipts for.
So you can go and get your car.
Take it.
And if you want to total it,
you total it.
I'm returning to you the $780
that you've paid
to have it fixed so far
because it's not
running properly.
Do you understand?
>> No, ma'am, I don't.
>> Judge Judy: Well, I'm going
to say it to you one more time.
And then I'm going
to say goodbye.
>> Okay.
>> Judge Judy: You towed
your car in to
the defendant's establishment.
You can tow it out
or you can drive it out.
I am returning to you the $780
that you have receipts for
because they did not put
in what I consider
an appropriate motor,
because if it's not running now,
properly, then you didn't get
any part of your money's worth.
And what part of that
don't you understand?
>>
I didn't say that I didn't --
>> Judge Judy: You're getting
your car back.
>> I didn't.
>> Judge Judy: You're getting
your car back.
Put your hand down.
You're getting your car
back and $780.
That's what you're getting.
>> May I speak, Your Honor?
>> Judge Judy: That's what
you're getting.
You're getting your car back.
>> Your Honor, I still have
a receipt here for a key
that they lost
that I had to buy,
which goes along with that.
I've been trying to give this
to him to show this to you.
>> Judge Judy: Seven hundred --
>> This is an $85 receipt --
>> Judge Judy: Seven hundred --
>> That I had to purchase
a key for.
>> Judge Judy: Seven hundred
and eighty dollars
and she's picking up the car
within the next five days.
Your counterclaim --
>> Four hundred --
>> Judge Judy:
Your counterclaim --
>> Four hundred of that --
>> Judge Judy: Is dismissed.
>> Four hundred of what you're
saying was done for the --
that was payment for the job
that had already been done.
>> Judge Judy: No, it wasn't
because
you have a bill there for $241.
>> With the parts.
>> Judge Judy:
She's -- Listen to me.
She's getting her car
back plus $780.
Do we understand each other?
>> Well, we're also
countersuing --
>> Judge Judy: We're done.
>> For storage fees.
>> Judge Judy: That's denied.
Seven hundred and eighty dollars
and she's picking up her car.
Your counterclaim's dismissed.
We're done.
