The dispute over Baby Boy, a dog, seemed relatively straightforward: the plaintiff claimed ownership, while the defendant insisted on having acquired the canine from the streets for a nominal fee of $50.
Expressing skepticism about the evidence presented by the defendant, which included a stack of photos and documents, Judge Judy found herself uncertain about the true owner of Baby Boy.
In an unconventional move, the renowned judge decided to rely on the loyalty of man’s best friend to guide her decision. Instructing the defendant to bring the dog into the courtroom and allow it to move freely, she observed the animal’s spontaneous display of affection toward the genuine owner.
Without hesitation, the dog eagerly approached the plaintiff, solidifying the truth of the case. As a result, the judge ruled in favor of the plaintiff, granting permission to take Baby Boy back home
