your former boyfriend,
and you have one child together,
who is how old?
>> He's going to be one
next month.
>> Judge Judy: Mr. Enright
has two other children,
two other sons.
>> A son and a daughter.
>> Judge Judy:
Who live with you?
>> Yes, ma'am.
>> Judge Judy:
You have custody of them?
>> Yes, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: Full-time?
>> Full-time.
>> Judge Judy: For how long?
>> For the last 3 years.
>> Judge Judy: So when you
and Ms. Ward were involved,
you already had the children
living with you?
>> Yes, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy:
And you were living where?
>> We were living in Fontana.
>> Judge Judy: Who was we?
>> Amanda and I
with my two kids.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
How long were you and Ms. Ward
living together?
>> We were living together
for approximately 6 months.
>> Judge Judy:
I'm talking about, you've had
your children for 3 years.
You've had custody
of your children,
according to you, for 3 years.
That was before you and Ms. Ward
lived together.
>> Yes, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy:
And where were you
and your two children living?
>> We were living in Fontana.
>> Judge Judy:
In what kind of premises?
>> In a four-bedroom house.
>> Judge Judy:
Just you and the two children?
>> And I had one other roommate.
>> Judge Judy:
Not a romantic interest?
>> Not a romantic interest
at all.
>> Judge Judy: So you,
a roommate
and your two children?
>> Yes, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: How long did you
live in that situation?
>> About 2 years.
>> Judge Judy:
And from that situation,
where did you go?
>> Amanda and I had...
She had moved in over there
in the Fontana house.
>> Judge Judy:
So she moved in with you?
>> Yes, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: With the roommate
and your two children?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: So far,
we're in agreement?
>> Yes, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy:
And it was from that
then she became pregnant?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: And where
did you move from there?
>> From there, we went
to Rancho Cucamonga.
>> Judge Judy:
Is that where you lived when she
had the baby and you broke up?
>> We were in the Fontana house
for about a month
after she had the baby.
Damien was born in April.
Shortly, we moved in May.
>> Judge Judy:
And you stayed there?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: So prior to that,
you had a situation
where everything was copacetic
before Amanda and the new baby
with your two children
in the home?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Perfect.
Now I've set it up.
It would be fair to say that
Amanda
and you maybe wanted some more
privacy
without the roommate?
>> Yeah.
I let her know
that we were taking off.
"We have the baby, and we need
to be alone."
At that point, we had moved out.
The roommate had gone
her own way.
>> Judge Judy: Yeah.
Let's start with Mr. Ward,
who is Amanda's grandfather,
who is going to tell me
that he made a loan to you.
>> It was never a loan.
>> Judge Judy: Shh, shh, shh.
He is going to tell me
that he made a loan to you
in order to move into
this new place
in Rancho Cucamonga, right?
He's going to tell me
that he made a loan to you
for first month's rent
and security.
I know that you deny that.
Mr. Ward is going to try to
convince me, sir,
which is not going to be easy.
I want you to know that I have
grandchildren,
and now I got the lay
of the land of this case,
so I want you to tell me,
as skeptical as I am,
that you made a loan
to Mr. Enright
for first,
last and security of $4,800?
>> Forty-eight hundred.
>> Judge Judy: I'm listening.
>> Okay.
On April 22nd,
he had asked me...
>> Judge Judy: Just a second.
Was he at your home?
Were you in their home?
>> He was in my home.
>> Judge Judy: And where
was your granddaughter?
>> She wasn't in the room.
>> Judge Judy:
Was she in your home?
>> She was in the home.
>> Judge Judy: And was your new
great-grandchild at home
in your home with his mother?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
So now you had your
granddaughter, her baby,
I assume
your first great-grandchild...
>> First great-grandchild.
>> Judge Judy: ...and her
boyfriend, not her husband.
>> Yes. Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Her boyfriend.
>> Her boyfriend.
>> Judge Judy: And so now he
is in a room, according to you,
alone with you.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Amanda is where?
>> I would imagine upstairs.
>> Judge Judy:
She's someplace else.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: And he came
to you and said...
>> Yeah.
Asked me...
They found a house,
and it was $2,400 a month,
and he didn't have the money
at the time
and if I would loan him
$4,800 for the first
and the last month, and I...
At the time, I told him,
"Yeah, sure," you know?
>> Judge Judy: And where was
your granddaughter?
Did you ever discuss it
with her?
>> No.
>> Judge Judy: Was she working?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: She was working?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy:
What kind of work was she doing?
>> At the time, warehouse work,
I believe.
>> Judge Judy:
And who was watching the baby?
>> My wife.
>> Judge Judy:
And did she continue to work?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy:
And what kind of work
did the boyfriend do?
>> Plumber.
>> Judge Judy: So you had two
working people.
Why in the world would you make
a loan if I believe this story,
which I don't...
Why in the world would you make
a loan to him when
he's not related to you at all?
They're not even married.
You have a granddaughter who's
working,
who's a working person, right?
>> Yeah.
Well, she was making minimum
wage,
and what they were doing is,
they were moving into
a bigger and better house,
so I
