I'm going to start with you,
sir.
You wanted to rent a motorcycle
for your son,
who was coming to visit.
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: And you had
rented motorcycles
for him to ride previously
from the plaintiff.
>> Yes, ma'am.
Three times.
>> Judge Judy: And how much
do you pay for each use?
>> I think it was about $130.
>> Judge Judy: A day?
>> A day. Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: And this last
time
that you reserved the motorcycle
for your son's visit,
how many days
did you reserve it for?
>> For 3 days, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: For $390.
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: Did you
personally call her?
>> I called.
Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: And gave her
the dates that you wanted
to reserve the motorcycle?
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: What were
the dates
that you wanted to reserve it?
>> It was Thanksgiving.
A Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
The 3 days starting with
Thanksgiving of 2015.
>> Judge Judy: So was
that the 25th?
>> I think that's the 26th, 27th
and 28th.
>> Judge Judy: 26th?
>> 27th and 28th, I believe.
>> Judge Judy: And on what date
did you call her?
>> I called on
September 16, 2015.
>> Judge Judy: And then you
found out that your son,
for some reason, wasn't coming.
>> Right.
>> Judge Judy: When did you call
the plaintiff back
and tell her
that the plan had changed
and you wanted to cancel?
>> That was September 17, 2015.
>> Judge Judy: And that's all
documented.
So far, is that all correct?
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: And how many
motorcycles do you have?
>> I own 14 motorcycles.
>> Judge Judy: And I assume that
you have documents to show me
that all of your 14 motorcycles
were rented for the 26th,
27th and 28th of November.
>> No.
They weren't all rented
at that time.
That was pretty far
ahead of time that he called.
>> Judge Judy: So you ran
his credit card
for $390.
He called you within 24 hours
to tell you that his plan
has changed,
and you told him,
according to your papers,
that you had a no refund policy,
that you would send him vouchers
for another time.
He said, "I want my money back."
And to make a long story
short, they ultimately
sided with him and took
the money back from you.
That's why you're here.
>> Ultimately, it went back
into my account
when he dropped the dispute,
at the end.
>> Judge Judy: So
what are you doing here?>> Judg.
>> Well, I'm suing for the NSF
charges
that I incurred for the money
going in and out, the taxes
that I had to pay,
and the inconvenience of it all.
>> Judge Judy: I'm not giving
you a quarter.
I think that you're a very
bad businesswoman.
>> Ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: I think
that you are --
>> He called 3 days later.
>> Judge Judy: I think
that you are --
>> He cancelled 3 days later.
>> Judge Judy: Listen to me.
>> My policy is no refunds.
>> Judge Judy: Hey, Ms. Knowler.
>> It's in my policy.
>> Judge Judy: Ms. Knowler.
I'm talking.
You're not.
>> I understand.
>> Judge Judy: I'm talking.
You're not.
Let me tell you this.
I just went over
with him the dates.
>> They are not correct.
>> Judge Judy: Don't speak.
I said,
"Is all of that correct?"
>> No.
>> Judge Judy: And you said --
You want me to play back
the tape?
You said, "Correct."
>> The dates are not correct.
The facts are correct.
The dates are not correct.
He called 3 days
after he booked.
>> Judge Judy: Great.
>> I have no cancellation --
no cancellation --
>> Judge Judy: Just a second.
I'm speaking.
>> No cancellation policy.
>> Judge Judy: Hey.
I'm speaking.
Listen to me.
>> No cancellation policy.
>> Judge Judy: I don't --
I don't give a rat's --
>> So why do people
put these in their --
>> Judge Judy: Listen to me.
I don't give a rat's behind
about
what you're going to show me.
I'm not giving you
another penny.
Not another penny.
If the money went back
into your account --
>> Because he was wrong.
That's why he
dropped his dispute.
>> Judge Judy: No.
Let me tell you something.
If I was in business --
>> Why did he drop the dispute?
>> Judge Judy: If you're going
to talk over me, I'm going
to throw you outta here
and not even explain --
>> Why did he drop the dispute,
would be my question.
>> Judge Judy: If you're going
to try to talk over me --
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: I'm going
to throw you out.
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy: It would be
my pleasure, anyway.in answer tu
did say the dates were correct.
Then you changed... Don't speak.
Then you changed it later
when you saw the direction
I was going in.
That's number one.
Number two, I asked you
whether all 14 motorcycles
were rented for that period
of time -- 26th, 27th, 28th.
Your response to me,
because it's on tape, was,
"No. They weren't.
And he called pretty far
in advance."
So the second thing
is that you suffered no damage
as a result of his canceling
because the rest of
your motorcycles weren't rented.
He only rented one.
I'm not finished yet.
>> I understand.
>> Judge Judy: I'm not finished
yet.
>> I understand.
>> Judge Judy: So if
I were in business
with a customer
who had reserved
and used my business before,
three times --
>> That understood the policy.
>> Judge Judy: Hey, just --
>> That understood the policy.
>> Judge Judy: Goodbye.
Your case is dismissed.
>> That's great.
>> Jud
