    Default Who's been on Judge Judy?

    or similar? To anybody who has followed my "fender bender with a regular" thread, his insurance company is trying to fuck me. I'm seriously comtemplating small claims court. Of course Judge Judy popped in my head. Is that ridiculous of me to even consider?

    Who would I sue? His insurance company? or him? or both?

    Ok, I might be able to offer some insight. I have not followed you insurance problem with the fender bender.

    1) the accident report, if there was one, should reflect some assignment of fault. If he was the sole person at fault, YOUR insurance company should be suing HIS insurance company to cover the damages, if you chose NOT to go notify your insurance company, it may be difficult to sue his insurance company for damages as a private party.

    2) It is all in the hands of the final investigation of the insurance adjuster. If it is decided that you were partially at fault, then his insurance company will only cover the percentage of the damages they feel he is responsible for.

    If all of that gives you no satisfaction, it may be worth it to take him to small claims court, but just be sure to understnad completely what all the codes mean on the report, as this is what will be the deciding factor of fault and compensation.

    Ok: Edited I went back and read the original post. Youre best bet is to notify your insurance company and let them attack his insurance company. That is the best wasy to handle it. In the interim, have an estimate made of the damages. If he backed into you, he is 100% at fault, if your vehicle was parked, or if you were in the right of way.

    I have been contemplating the same thing ( I was also in a car accident)..
    I was thinking more along the lines of Judge Mathis..Judge Judy is way too mean.

    I was never on any of the shows, but when I took my ex to small claims court (over appliances, long story..) they ALL contacted me and tried to get me on the shows. They offered hotel accomodations for a night, airfare, and to pay the settlement (if I won). It was tempting, but not tempting enough. You don't know what the other person will say, and what dirty laundry will be made extremely public.

    The only dancer I know of that appeared on any of these shows was feature dancer Tawny Peaks ... who was being sued by a club customer for supposedly causing whiplash when she titty slapped the guy's face with implants as big as mine. She went on a show with a male judge (Judge Wapner & People's Court), she had all the male cast and audience members eating out of her hand (especially when the bailiff was assigned to weigh her boobs in chambers !), and the court found in her favor.

    As much as I love Judge Judy, she doesn't seem to treat women kindly who have "questionable" backgrounds. Also, if I remember the original post about this accident correctly, you live in a "no fault" state which could massively complicate the legal process, and Judge Judy isn't the type to "bend" the law in any way. Plus BOTH parties have to agree to "binding arbitration" in order for a case to be put in front of any of these TV courts, which a guy who shuns bad publicity would typically be very reluctant to do.

    Yes melonie's right.. while i love judge judy when it comes to women with professions like "exotic dancing" she can be harsh even prejudiced and biased at times.

    ya Judge Judy is a bitch.. But that's why I love her soo damn much I had a friend who was on the Rikki Lake show for the top exotic dancers in the U.S. or something like that. She didn't win it because they said she had too many tats. I was so bummed for her. She is really beautiful and talented. But I did end up seeing her last year in Playboy with the other girls that didnt win along with the winner who had her own big pic. Sorry, this topic kinda reminded me of it.

    What is it about tats? I think they are sexy. My kid's mom had several clubs she couldn't dance in because of hers (And the ones she could work in made her put this make-up on them).




    Saphire, I wouldn't go on Judy. Lol, though you might scare that guy that hit you into ponying up the cash if he finds out he has to go on TV and spill beans about being a SC regular (some guys are kinda weird about that).

    Small claims court is like rolling dice, though. You might get a judge that's cool, and you might get the guy auditioning to be the next John Ashcroft.

    I'm a court-show addict (watching Judge mathis right now!), and I think Judge millian (sp?) on people's court is the most fair, and most unlikely to allow useless dirty laundry to be aired. However, she has mentioned before that she thinks stripping is wrong (I feel like SUCH a dork posting this!)

    Another thing you might do is call several different body shops in your area to see if they will offer any help in negotiating with the insurer. One of the shops here in cbus has made a fortune by calling out insurers who try to stiff people who their customers have wrecked-- they have their own collison claims centers all over town. Of course the insurers hate them, but they're making a lot of money so their tactics must be successful in a lot of cases.
