Hot Bench Thinks Extensive Is a Stretch

A landlord claims his former tenants left behind extensive damage after living in his apartment for eight years. But when Judge Rachel Juarez examines the photographs, she has a very different opinion about the property's condition and questions whether the landlord's description is justified.

On Hot Bench, Judge Juarez challenges landlord Mr. Chisau's definition of extensive damage, pointing out that the apartment looks surprisingly good after eight years of occupancy. She even recalls that apartments she rented when she was younger looked considerably worse after just one year.

Watch Hot Bench as Judge Rachel Juarez brings some personal perspective and a little humor to a landlord's claims about property damage and tenant responsibility.
