I'm so freakishly scared. I'm going to court for the whole Mallory problem. "Axl hurry up, we need to get there at 9:30!", I shouted from the bathroom.

When we get there, my heart started racing.

I heard this case was going to be on tv, but I don't know who's the judge. I hope she's not like Judge Judy or something.

Axl and I stood in the back room. "My life is horrible", I muttered.

The security guard told us to enter. "All rise for the plaintiff, Casey Hudson", he said as everyone watched me. Axl came and sat behind me in the chair. "And the defendant, Robert Jackson", I didn't look at him.

"Please remain standing for our judge, Judge-", I stood there begging not to be judge Judy. "Coleman", he finished. She we a very young woman.

"Ok, Casey Hudson is suing Robert Jackson for $12,000 for damages for her home that was broken into", she said scattering through papers. "That's correct", I said in a cracked voice. The truth was it was actually $2,000 in damages, but I wanted the extra $10,000 for something else. "So what happened", she said looking at me. "Uh, well, June 12, um Robert broke into my house, and stole my 2 month old dog", I said shaking. Judge Coleman looked at Robert and then back at me.

"Did you get your dog back?", she asked me. I nodded. I started to calm down. "What was damaged in your home?", she asked scratching her head. "Um the basement and the living room window",

"Where were your parents at this time", she kept on asking so many questions.

"They went to a family emergency", I replied.


The whole thing dragged on.

She asked Robert a whole bunch of questions too, and then came the verdict.

"I rule $12,000 to the plaintiff", and hit the little thing and left. I won the case!!!!!
