    A classic Judge Judy case. Another case that always has me laughing was this one that was over in just 26 seconds. The plaintiff was this high school student who claimed that the defendants, two guys, stole her wallet. Judge Judy had her list what was in her wallet, and she mentioned an earpiece, and one of the defendants immediately blurted out "There was no earpiece in there, ma'am." The entire courtroom, Judge Judy included, just lost it laughing and obviously, the plaintiff won.

    One of my favorites was the one where 2 boys were accused of throwing rocks at a man's car. Judy brings the boy next to her and they both listen to the car owner's story, how he and a taller boy were throwing rocks. She looks over at the boy and asks, "And the taller boy was?" And he without hesitation says his name. She smiles, lets him go back to his seat, and asks if everyone heard what he just said. The dad of the boy was wearing the dumbest grin and was ready to say "it wasn't my boy and he can't prove it", but here Judy got the boy to effectively admit the plaintiff was telling the truth.

The prosecution's case looked rock solid, until the defendant came to court with his identical twin brother. The prosecution tried to argue it wasn't the brother in the photos then they showed a picture of the "defendant" working in his yard while a man who looked exactly like the defendant sat in a wheelchair in the yard of the defendant's house.

First of all, in many cases the violation would be outside their area of expertise--a civil lawyer being charged with a crime being an obvious example. Second of all, being the defendant in many cases means that the detachment necessary to be an _effective_ lawyer simply doesn't exist. The latter may not be an insurmountable issue for some lawyers, but for others it would be significant enough not to take the risk.

    When I was growing up I had an awful neighbor who had to be evicted but by the time the papers were served they were already on the run from the law. The landlord came through and was having a discussion with my dad about how the tenants had absolutely destroyed the house and it would almost cost more than the house was even worth to fix it. He'd been renting out the house to build money for a retirement fund but this would totally destroy all of his savings. My dad was like "Sounds like you need a property lawyer, my brother is one, let me call him for you!" The guy is like "Dude, I don't have the money to pay a lawyer right now, were you not listening to how screwed I am financially?" My dad's like "No, no, trust me; just let me put in a quick call." He puts the cell phone on speaker and calls his brother: "Hey, funny story; you remember my neighbor X?" "The one who embezzled money from my law firm?" "The one who embezzled money from your law firm! Well, X's landlord is here complaining X totally wrecked the house. Happen to know any *property lawyers* who might be willing to help him out?" My uncle was like "Yeah now that you mention it, I think I might know one or two." A few months later the landlord came back and cheerfully thanked my dad. He'd gotten enough money in court to totally fix up the house plus quite a bit more so he was actually going to sell the house and get out of the renting business altogether. I don't know exactly what happened in court but uh, I guess the moral of the story is don't personally screw over the local lawyers before ending up with legal problems.

    My spouse & I were sued by our ex-landlord. We handed the paperwork to our attorney and about a month or so later we went to court. It turned out my BIL had extended the lease and had someone sign my spouse's name. The plaintiff's attorney went to great lengths to prove that we were responsible by focusing on the fact that my BIL & spouse had "clearly signed" the lease extension. The attorney must not have actually looked at the lease or extension signatures. The judge REALLY scoured the paper and then asked both my spouse & I to sign a clean sheet of paper with my spouse's name. He showed both sets of signatures to the plaintiff's attorney and asked which one matched my spouse's signature. The atty admitted none of the signatures matched the original lease. The judge also looked at my husband's license and work ID. He told the attorney the signatures not only didn't match the lease, they were not even attempts at forgery. The case was found in our favor. I wish I could say my attorney was instrumental, but he actually tried to get us to settle out of court without even looking at the documents the plaintiffs had provided. Thank heavens for 'thinking judges'.

The original charge was dismissed on an uncontested first amendment motion, but they added a charge of harassment. Two years later, we're still in pre-trial motions and I'm still facing jail time. Prosecutor stipulates in the motions hearing that the parking attendant yelled obscenities at me and then refused to identify himself. Case dismissed. First amendment violation confirmed. Lawsuits on the way. The prosecutor told the judge she accidentally admitted things she didn't mean to, and then tried to charge it again as obstruction. The judge told her to take a hike.

    Not accidentally. I am a lawyer, and I had a case where I needed to prove my client mailed a certain paper by a certain date. Did everything humanly possible to get a record from the government. Each time, no luck. Lost at trial level, and appellate level. Filed with the US Court of Appeals. I got a brief from the government which totally destroyed such argument as I had -which was long on emotion but short on fact - you argue what you got. A few days later, I got a call from the government attorney, who told me that he ran his own search for the paper, and found it. He asked me to file a motion to remand the case and said he would join the motion. The case won, because he believed the guy deserved to win. Sometimes, just sometimes, the Justice Department does the right thing, and no, it wasn't a white guy on trial.

    I was indicted for a crime that I didn't commit in Elmore County Alabama. Not only did I not commit the crime though, I was actually one of the victims. My attorney didn't need to solve the crime though, it only took me 48 hours to figure it out. I solved the case and revealed more crimes than what I was being charged with, including additional federal crimes committed by the criminal. Ironically, I was indicted for a small $1000+ crime, but once I solved the case, the prosecution isn't interested in going after the actual criminal. I don't know if it's because perjury was used to indict me, or if they just lack the integrity to admit that law enforcement made some mistakes, but a criminal is free from many charges, and a few other victims all thanks to Elmore County, Alabama's 19th district court. It is important to note that I might be murdered for posting this comment. The District Attorney was kind enough to threaten revoking my bail if I continued speaking about the perjury that I believe was used to indict me. That "perjury" comes from a recorded conversation that I have in my possession that indicates that the investigator "lied" in his story to make me sound guilty and indict me. I firmly believe that the grand jury would have gone differently had they known that I called law enforcement to "report" a crime. Yes, you read that right. The person reporting the crime was indicted. It is also important, for the sake of humor, that due to a flaw in the case, the courthouse unintentionally assisted the criminal in committing additional crimes against me as they mailed the criminal my SSN, Driver's License Number, and DOB to the criminal. Roughly 1 month before trial date, it is believed that the criminal stole my identity and attempted to use my money to purchase a cell phone from Verizon. Those criminal charges are not being investigated, likely due to being related to the crime I was falsely indicted for. The Attorney General, Steve Marshall, I feel has declined to respond to any of my concerns that this case was so important when it was a small crime and I was the suspect; but now that I have proven my innocence and revealed larger crimes, it just isn't an important case. As a person that is supposed to support victims, he has more or less failed as far as I know. There's a lot more negligence to cover, but I have revealed enough. I loved it when the investigator's wife contacted me via Facebook and threatened me. You can't make this stuff up.

Also, after that, someone called cps on my mom on the basis of “she’s not feeding us.” They came to the house where there was a fresh plate of at least 12 biscuits on the stove. They essentially said “just clean up the house.” (It was bad because of what just happened)

    Not a lawyer, but I'll never forget the time I served on the jury and the prosector asked their primary witness to confirm they reported an instance of the defendant making threats. The defendant firmly and explicitly denied this, and in fact the 911 call recording confirmed it. To be fair to the prosecutor, it looked like an honest mistake on the part of reporting officers, and thus getting filtered down to those working the reports...but she didn't back down. The rest of the trial she still kept hammering this point home, and in deliberations we even double-checked because we all had it in our notes...But the witness simply, at no point, made the accusation that the defendant was being charged with. We probably would've found him innocent even if we were in backwards land "presume the defendant is guilty until proven innocent" because we had actual proof that he was innocent of that charge. (There was an additional charge, that was a harder call...in truth I think it was more likely then not the defendant committed the other charge...but we couldn't make that determination beyond reasonable doubt and so acquitted him.)

    The one time I ever saw a court case, the guy that went before us was charged with wreckless driving due to passing someone on that outer part of the road which is only for when you get pulled over or your car breaks down. The judge asks him to explain his case and he says at the corner of Moscow road (its a small town so everyone knows where this is) he passed the prosecutor at the right when the prosecutor was slowed down and turning left onto Moscow road. There is no right lane, and passing via the left lane would've drove him straight into the prosecutor. The judge was at least kind enough to explain that you cannot legally pass someone without using a proper lane (this guy borderline drove off the road and back on it) and the case was dismissed.

    The ID is to prove that the person accepting the prescription is of age to accept a controlled substance. In my state, it's 16. In some it's 18. The only purpose of scanning ID, legally, it to cover the pharmacy's butt that nobody is handing controlled substances to children. At some pharmacies it's policy for the computer to store the name of whoever picked it up in case there's a theft accusation. You can pick up your neighbor's best friend's uncle's dog's prescription if you have the name and birthday.

    I mean, considering that their politics consistently end up being equivalent to: "Shoot every puppy alive" and "Do absolutely fucking nothing while we allow specific places to shoot puppies" and people still havent done anything about it,I have no doubt believing that someone would be stupid enough to do so.

    Not just roots or branches. Rules and codes vary by location but essentially the idea is that if someone is injured on your property from something that can be considered the homeowner's responsibility to maintain, they can be held liable for that injury. Where I live, there is a city ordinance for property owners to clear ice and snow after a specific set of time following the weather condition (I want to say 24 hours following) so 1) you can be fined for not clearing your sidewalk/stoop and 2) sued if someone falls or other wise injures themselves claiming it was from the uncleared snow/ice

    If a child refuses to go back to an abusive parent, why would the courts even order it? Like why can't the child just go "nuh-uh"? It's literally insane to me that a child can literally say "biological parent is an abuser" and a court will still go "go back to real mommy uwu". What if the kid decides to remain with the foster family?

Talk about admitting murder! He got off, but I'm still not sure how 😂 American justice tends to be lenient when white conservatives are involved

Maybe the guy really was injured by carelessness on that street, but there'd be no hope for him. Straightforward detail and memory accuracy is everything in court and you don't have to be nutty not to have it. I know from a family case that this is exactly the kind of straightforward memory-based detail good accident lawyers check and double-check with their clients ab nauseum in case it ever ends up being in a courtroom.

    I've heard story 20 before and still do not understand how anyone could think that, unless it was just to get back at OP's mom for breaking up with him, that buying things for people without telling them they'd intended for such things to be paid back, as miniscule as cheeseburgers, Kit-Kats, and birthday cakes, but expecting the recipients to do so is something everyone believes and acts accordingly. I also don't understand why someone would buy inexpensive things like cheeseburgers, Kit-Kats, and birthday cakes and expect them to be paid back. Big things, expensive things, whatever those might have been as they weren't identified, yeah, that one would be expected to pay back if big enough and had been stated beforehand that it was a loan that would need paid back.

Prosecutor finished and I thought to myself, "That settles it, there's no way I can vote guilty." Defense lawyer does cross-examination. All the mysteries and confusion were cleared up. I thought, "Oh, that was helpful. Plenty of evidence pointing toward guilt *now*." (yeah, I know I shouldn't make up my mind until I hear the defense case. My mind wasn't made up. I just clearly understood the prosecution's case now.)

Turns out the plaintiff's "expert" somehow forgot the Pythagorean Theorem, but I didn't. I showed them on a piece of scrap paper that a^2 + b^2 did not equal the length they claimed... The settlement conference came to an abrupt halt.

He could literally lose the privilege of practicing law ever again if he was caught. Lawyers get what is effectively a doctorate over the course of becoming a lawyer and this guy could lose everything if the person he helped had a big mouth. Thats brave and honorable behavior right there. For those who don't know, even though he was preventing someone from getting cheated, by the standard of ethics lawyers go by, he betrayed his clients trust. Losing his license for that would be all but guaranteed if I'm not mistaken. I'm no lawyer, maybe a lawyer can confirm or deny my statement?
