Today's Judge Judy episode featured a defendant DJ who didn't provide a certificate of insurance to the venue in time to make the plaintiff (FOB) happy.
Judy ruled in the DJs favor and ordered the plaintiff to pay the additional $400 due the DJ per the contact. The plaintiff didn't cancel before the 30 day window.
The case hinged on the fact that the contract between client & DJ made no mention of insurance or the need to provide a certificate of insurance. The DJ, who has been in business for 8 years, said that he did in fact have insurance and would have provided the certificate in time. However, the plaintiff grew impatient and fired him.
I couldn't find anything but a brief mention of the case on Judy's website: Judge Judy - Watch to learn about Judge Judy's lessons on life and the law

What struck me is the DJ barely spoke. His contract did all the talking for him. For those of you that bang the contract drum it definitely helped this guy.
