Small claims matter. She allowed an unregistered Debt Collector to present questionable documents as evidence. Does not allow pro se equal access to the court.She has ordered Defendant to produce documents pertaining to persons not associated with the erroneous case with the threat of incarceration if she did not produce them. The judge leans heavily on the side of anyone that has PA attached to them.

Judge Gagliardi rarely awards damages for evictions. The tenants know this and will sit in the home without paying, doing damage to the home until midnight before the sheriff arrives to put them out. The tenant owes thousands of dollars in back rent and do thousands of dollars in damage to the property and the landlord receives nothing. In the 5 years I have managed this property she has awarded a little over $200 total. The tenants play the live for free game and the judge allows it. Hold over tenants stop paying a month in advance - it takes another month to do an eviction - the law says the landlord gets double rent. She ignores that statute.

Small claims matter. Specious reasoning. Seemed to think that justice was taking the average of the two opposing points of view. But one was reasonable, the other one wasn't.
