Hot Bench Season 9 Episode 16: Recap

 The 16th episode had aired on October 3rd, 2022. It dealt with the case of Jim Sorkin and Timothy Zelonka. Jim as the plaintiff filed a case against Timothy as due to his decisions, Jim couldn’t complete the work given. This caused him to lose money he was supposed to get from the company he works for. 

Timothy fires back, saying that Jim had done poor quality work and nothing improved even after 5 months of hiring him. He shows evidence of Gaps in walls, Empty spaces in places that should have been filled, and poor painting of walls.

Jim expresses the reason for the Gaps as Timothy’s inability to decide where to put the Outlets. He says Timothy had him change a lot of things, even when work was already started and that he didn’t even let him finish the work. The Judges explain that if he had 5 months of time to do it, why didn’t he? The bond company also had a look at the work, and it was their decision based on the quality of work that Jim had done messy work. 

The Judges then discuss between themselves and come up with the decision to dismiss both the defendant and the plaintiff as none of them had enough evidence against each other.
