But you asked her to leave.
She wouldn't leave.
You said, "I'm going to call
the police," and?
>> And she got upset.
She stood up, and she went into
an irate tantrum
about she's not leaving.
She shouldn't have never came
back because
we have on-and-off relationship.
She said she should
have never came back.
She got up.
"I can't believe this."
She stood up, threw my remote
down, broke the remote,
slapped my candle warmer
down to the ground.
It busted in pieces.
I said, "Okay."
At this point, I said, "I'm
about to call the police for
real 'cause you tripping out.
You in here breaking my stuff."
I'm sitting down.
I have the phone up to my face,
and I'm acting like
I'm calling the police, 'cause
I don't really want to do that.
I'm hoping
she's going to, you know,
do what she's supposed to do.
Let me take you home,
Uber, any of that,
whatever you've got to do.
I just don't like Debbie Downer
stuff going on in my apartment.
So at this point,
I'm talking to the police.
I'm acting like, "Yeah, 534."
I'm giving my address,
the whole rundown.
She hears me.
She's like, "You calling
the police?"
I'm like, "Yeah, 'cause
you won't leave."
At this point, she jumps up
and snatches my TV
off of the mantel
that I have pictures right here.
So when I see her run up,
I kind of jump up,
and I meet her.
Well, she snatches down,
and I'm catching the TV.
But the TV end up hitting my --
I have a guard
in front of my fireplace.
Boom.
It hit that,
and it scraped the wall.
So I grab my TV,
and I kind of catch it before it
hits the wall all of the way,
and then she runs off.
I chase her.
She trips.
I grab her up, and I'm
physically trying to put her out
at this point 'cause I'm upset.
And after all of the rustling
and tussling,
she end up leaving.
So, I think, a couple days
later --
>> Judge Judy: How
did you get home?
>> I ended up getting
an Uber home that night.
>> Judge Judy: And you have that
on your phone, on June 4th?
>> That ride?
>> Judge Judy: Yes.
>> Right.
>> Judge Judy: And you would
have
that call on your cellphone.
>> Right.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
So you got an Uber at
about what time?
>> At this point, I believe
it's about 12:30-ish,
somewhere around there.
>> Judge Judy: Have you taken
an Uber from his house before?
>> Yes, I have.
>> Judge Judy: But there was
definitely
an Uber call on June 4th.
>> Well, it would have been
the 5th.
>> Judge Judy: On June 5th?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Did you speak
to her the next day?
>> Yes.
We spoke the next day, and she
actually came over 'cause, you
know, we was still trying
to work things out after that.
So she came over,
I guess, three days later,
and that's when I officially
showed her
that the TV was broken.
She said she would replace it.
Two weeks later go by.
Nothing going out.
>> Judge Judy: Just a second.
In that two weeks,
did you see Miss Martin?
>> No, I did not see her.
We were just texting
and talking.
>> Judge Judy: Do you have
any texts
that indicate, in June,
that she's
going to pay for the TV?
>> It's not in June.
It was later on down the road.
>> Judge Judy: When?
>> I think these texts
have August on them.
>> Judge Judy: Were you dating
in June and July?
>> No.
In June, we was,
before the incident.
>> Judge Judy: Before this.
But afterwards?
>> No. Afterward, it was over.
>> Judge Judy: May I see
the texts, please,
where she says
she's going to pay for the TV?
>> Like I was saying,
that was later on down the line,
'cause she was saying that
two weeks later,
she was going to pay for it,
then nothing.
Another two weeks, said she was
going to pay for it,
then nothing.
>> Judge Judy: Well,
Miss Martin,
first of all, you broke his TV,
'cause that's what this says.
And in this, you said you were
going to pay for it,
but you weren't going to pay
for it if you weren't
going to be together again.
But you also said,
in this text, that you
stayed the night that night.
"You made me stay the night
that night,
but it was never back the way
it was at the beginning."
Did you stay the night
that night?
>> Well --
>> Judge Judy: "Well"
is not an answer.You know, therI
was asking you about this Uber,
and I could check it
because there was something
that I didn't believe,
when you said to me.
And I turned,
and I said quickly, "How did
you get home that night?"
and the response wasn't
immediate.
So after you broke the TV,
you stayed the night.
>> He wouldn't let me leave.
>> Judge Judy: I didn't
ask you that.
I said, "Did you stay
the night?"
The answer would be yes,
and you told him that you were
going to take care of the TV,
because you said to him,
"So I decided to break the TV.
I was done.
I said you're going to feel
some pain this time.
You was not going
to keep playing with my heart."
That's what you said.
>> I agreed to replace the TV
because I was just trying
to fix our relationship.
I didn't really break his TV.
I was just telling him
what he wanted to hear.
>> Judge Judy: When did you
purchase the TV?
>> 2015.
I have the receipt that has
all the information on it.
>> Judge Judy: May I see it,
please, and the photographs
of the broken TV?
Judgment for the plaintiff
in the amount of $1,380.
Thank yo
