suggesting is the nine haircuts
you did for him, you did,
and the equivalent is that --
was the remainder
of what you owed him was $1,240.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
Now, tell me when you had
the discussion with Mr. Hackmann
that transferred the issue
of the money
that was owed, cash money,
U.S. currency, to barter.
Tell me about that.
>> That happens --
>> Judge Judy: You
started paying him back.
And when was the last day
you gave him a cash payment
or a PayPal payment?
>> Uh, it would have been
the end of last year.
Less than six months.
>> Judge Judy: What's the date?
You have it.
>> Yes, I do.
>> Judge Judy: You must have
it down.
>> I do. 8/15/2015.
>> Judge Judy: Okay, was when
you gave him...
Just a second.
When you gave him money?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: So at that point
in August of 2015 --
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: There was not
a barter agreement in place?
>> The barter agreement happened
every once in a while
whenever he needed a haircut.
And then what we would do
was there was never a set time
when payments were necessarily
due or made.
>> Judge Judy: You're going
to step all over your tie
and get very dry in the mouth.
>> Yes.u
telling me
that prior to August of 2015,
you had an agreement --
>> Mm-hmm.
>> Judge Judy: With Mr. Hackmann
that you were going to deduct
what you owed him
from haircuts that you gave him?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Tell me when
that conversation took place.
>> Earlier that year. And --
>> Judge Judy: Earlier in 2015?
>> 2015.
And initially when -- when --
when we first agreed
that I was, uh,
purchasing the island as well.
>> Judge Judy:
Is that correct, sir?
>> It was earlier than that,
But his numbers
are way incorrect, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: You had, however,
discussed with him barter?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: And how much
were you attributing
to each of your nine haircuts?
>> Well, there was only six
haircuts,
Your Honor, and one additional
for a girlfriend of --
at the time.
Each haircut, he charges
a retail value of $35 for --
>> That's incorrect.
>> And I took $60,
the full monthly payment,
off for each haircut.
So he was making boon
off of that, as well.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
So first thing I'd like to see
is the ledger
register of nine haircuts.
Is this the book
that you use, sir?
Or is something that
you've prepared for me today?
>> That is the book
that I did use at the time.
And so what I can do is pull up
a specific client's list
of appointments.
>> Judge Judy: Well, you only
have five here.
>> I should have nine.
>> Judge Judy: One, two, three,
four, five.
>> Only show five?
>> Judge Judy: Men's haircut
and style?
>> Yes.
One, two, three, four, five.
>> Judge Judy: One, two, three,
four, five.
>> Uh-huh.
>> Judge Judy: Nothing.
>> Hmm.
>> Judge Judy: So if I were
to call your salon now --
Is it open or closed?
>> Uh, it's by appointment.
So it is available upon request.
>> Judge Judy: What does that
mean?
>> It's by appointment only.
So there's no standing --
There's no receptionist,
necessarily.
All my clients
directly contact me.
>> Judge Judy: Is there
a physical space in your salon?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: You have
a physical space?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: How many people
work in your salon?
>> Three.
>> Judge Judy: You're one,
you're two -- Who's the third?
>> Uh, his name's Grant.
He's another stylist
that we work with.
>> Judge Judy: And he doesn't
come into the salon?
>> He does.
>> Judge Judy: So he may
be there now?
>> Uh, I don't believe --
He might.
>> Judge Judy: He might. Okay.
So if I had somebody call
and say, "I want a men's haircut
and style,"
how much would
I be advised that that would be?
>> Uh, uh,
for just a men's haircut?
Uh, $45.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
>> That's for a short haircut,
though, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: Hmm?
>> Mr. Hackmann
he likes his hair long.
So I charge him
a women's price of $60.
>> Judge Judy: Oaid him
$720.
And according to both of you,
you agreed to barter haircuts.
He says he had seven.
You have five.
He says, "It was $35."
You say it was $45 for a man.
But I charge him
for a woman's haircut.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: I'm giving you
credit for $45
for the five haircuts
you can prove, which is $225.
>> Mm-hmm.
>> Judge Judy: $225.
That's five. That's four.
That's nine.
$945.
>> I never received $700
or whatever
he's saying in cash from him.
>> Judge Judy: Well, you're not
suing him, sir, for $2,000.
You're suing him for $1,240.
>> Right, no.
But if you're adding that
that up to get to the $1,240,
and he's got extraneous numbers
in there,
that's gonna change that amount.
>> Your Honor, what I show --
>> Judge Judy: Judgment
for the plaintiff
in the amount of $1,055.
We're done. Thank you.
