I watched one-half of one episode. Judge Lauren Lake made a decision that was totally, completely, and as she admitted, contrary to the law. She made the decision out of "fairness". This is absurd. If I had been the defendant ordered to pay in this case, I'd be suing the judge, and the production company and I'm pretty, I'd win. These judges are "arbitrators" and as arbitrators are required to follow the law. She admitted that she wasn't following the law. She would be liable for damages for her bad decision. The law doesn't take into account "fairness" the way she did - the law is often not "fair". It was a simple contracts case. The party performed under the contract. She proved that she performed under the contract. And she should have won. Instead, she was ordered to pay. Ridiculous!! I'll never watch this show again!
