A Fish Called Crumb
Checking out a new episode at 4:00 PM today. First up was Kendra Crumb suing James Doss and his uncle Samual Fried for travel expenses, lost wages and the cost of exotic fish. Plaintiff is a retired nurse collecting disability, selling tropical fish on the side to "keep her fish tanks going". 31 Defendant James Doss went into business with Plaintiff Crumb to sell Angel Fish. Overall a rather uninteresting case about their doomed trip to a tropical fish convention in Hampton VA.
The second case was a lot more interesting. Linda Swanson was suing 24 year old professional Social Security recipient Jacob Vaughn for the damage to her truck after he crashed into her truck while he was riding on his skateboard. The only satisfaction that I can get from Jacob Vaughn drawing SSI is that with his morbid obesity, he should be dead by the time he reaches 35. Of course, his family will still collect his benefits. For whatever reason, Judge Judy decilined to comment on Defendant Vaughn's attire, which can best be described as a purple mummy. Somehow, the fat sweaty perpetually unemployed Jacob Vaughn managed to move into his somewhat hot looking girlfriend Bailey's family home. Jacob claimed that while returning from picking up his disability check, minding his own business riding his skateboard, he collided with the plaintiff who was backing out. Judge Judy shot down that defense in a sushi lunch minute. Even if she was backing out which she wasn't, she wouldn't be responsible for his idiotic performance on the skateboard. He does know enough that his SSI can not be garnished for a civil judgment. Now, if you will excuse me, I need to get ready for work tomorrow, there are millions of Americans depending on my taxes to subsidize their lifestyles.
