A man brought his live in girlfriend in for being messy and keeping draws open.
The Boyfriend brought evidence of the mess and the Draws open but we also found six toothbrushes as well.
The conclusion of the case was hilarious as the Judge ruled both parties need to clean up the apartment
Words to live by from the case: A large Slice of Pizza does not make it a great slice of wisdom

Then came time for Swift Justice where Judge Hodgman where he weighed in on disputes from the audiences. The speed round for disputes was funny and the Justice, Judge Hodgman delivered was equally swift and hilarious.
The second case was a throw back to previous litigants Sister Wives (just two couples living together). This time they brought a case of the missing Swag bag from a Christmas party.
One of the cohabitants took the other persons husband to a Christmas party and failed to bring back a swag bag
There were plenty of burns in this one. The Judge ruled that the person who went to the Christmas party should buy items from the swag bag to make up for missing the swag bag
There were so many burns I hope they “Shared the Aloe”
There was not one second where we were not laughing or chuckling at the cases or the commentary. Judge Hodgman and Bailiff Jesse Thorn are the ultimate tag team in civil justice.
