Ep 182. I'm Glad I Had My Mom Arrested!; Gift-Giving 101

In season 22, episode 182 of Judge Judy titled "I'm Glad I Had My Mom Arrested!; Gift-Giving 101," viewers are taken on a wild courtroom ride as two cases go before the no-nonsense judge.

The first case revolves around a mother and son duo, with the son suing his mother for allegedly stealing his belongings and cash. The son reveals that he had his mother arrested, and is now seeking financial compensation for his losses. Judge Judy listens intently as both the son and his mother present their sides of the story, with the son saying that his mother took $10,000 in cash from him, along with his DJ equipment and clothing. The mother, on the other hand, argues that she is entitled to take the items as she was not being paid rent by her son. Judge Judy looks unenthused by the entire affair but takes a stern approach as she lays out the law for the pair.
