<i> This is</i> Couples Court with the Cutlers. This is the case of<i> Taylor v. Jackson.</i> You all have been together seven years and married for two years. Mr. Taylor, tell me why you brought your wife to court today. Well, I brought my wife to court because I believe that she is still cheating, and to see if she's still lying to me. 'Cause if she is, then this relationship gonna be over. The marriage, the family we had, the lifestyle we had, is all gonna be over. And I don't know why she would jeopardize that, knowing that we're all we had. Ain't nobody else backing us, don't nobody else supporting us, don't nobody else help us with the kids. Don't nobody else help us with our living arrangement or nothing. This had become so stressful to you that you moved out two months ago? UMAR: Yes, I couldn't deal with it no more. It was too many signs. I was catching her up in too many lies. I couldn't do it no more. So I left until we get this situation resolved. And if she is cheating, I'm gone. And what hurt me most, every time I look at this picture right here, it's the fact that at this time in our life, everything was good. At this time in our life, man, that was my best friend. That was my lover, that was my homey. That was my other half. We did everything together. And I feel like that's jeopardized. And you are holding onto that picture like it's your last hope. Yes, it's all I have to, like, remember. And I don't know why she would do this to me, because she know how valuable family is to me. Like, I was adopted. I ain't have the chance to really... Experience a real good family life like most people, so she know that that's something I really wanted structured in my life. She know that that's a goal I have in my life, is to build and have a family. DANA: So your belief in that she's lying and that she's cheating has literally driven you from your home with her. Gone. Yes. DANA: And if you find out, in fact, that she is cheating, you are not going back. You're done. Oh, I'm done, I can't do it no more, she have done this is the past, this is a repeat and... A repeated thing, like... I don't believe it's so much me no more, I think it's her, that's just what she do. That's her behavior trait, you know what I'm saying? But if she isn't cheating, you're going home. I'm going home. You're going to rebuild this family. Take my wife back, take my kids back. We gonna be a family. DANA: So, everything. (AUDIENCE SYMPATHIZING AND APPLAUDING) So what you telling this court. What you telling me and Mr. Cutler? Is that your whole world is on the line today. UMAR: On the line. Everything that we built and had for the last seven years. Everything that we have. (STAMMERS) All right. So, Ms. Jackson, why are you in court today? I messed up my family with my actions, because... As he stated, we don't have a lot of family support... And our family is, like, the only thing that we have. And we've been through a lot, and I don't wanna let that go to waste. You want your family back. LAJOYA: Yes, your Honor. Do you love this man? Yes, your Honor. (AUDIENCE SYMPATHIZING) DANA: And so you're here trying to recoup and bring that family back together. Your goal is, when you walk out of here, you all are a couple going to rebuild your family. Yes, your Honor. So, that means you haven't been cheating, then... That's the only way we gonna get back together. DANA: So you are here to get back to the time in that picture. LAJOYA: Yes, yes, your Honor. What were those times like? It was stressful, because... We were in a financial deficit, but it's like I can look up to that, like, "Wow, we been through this," and it made us so much stronger. If we can do that, we can do anything. Just being there to support each other when we had nobody else. And doing family outings... And when you talk about the tough times, when you said that it "makes you stronger," that spoke to me. Because we talk about... Well, there was a... We went to law school together, and we were broke law students. Even before then, we met as poor college students. We were real broke law students. And working through that, it does make a couple strong, 'cause you figure, if you can climb that mountain, when you ain't got no money, that's a tough mountain. When you can climb that mountain, you can climb anything. And when they just stick through it with you you just know that they for you, you know what I'm saying? DANA: Right. 'Cause you went through, and ya ain't jump ship, or abandon ship when it got hard and went somewhere that was easier. You stuck through. DANA: That's right. So you made it through the tough times. Why are you here today? What happened to break the trust? UMAR:: I was coming home from work and I walked in the house, and the kids run up like, "Hey, Dad. How you doin'?" I'm like, "Where Mom at?" "Mom in the back with a guy." (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMING) And then the other one said, "The guy name Josh." And then here she come, running like a bat out of hell, out the bedroom. And she like, "Oh, hey, baby, how you doin'? "Um, it's just me and my friend..." I ain't never met the dude. "It's just me and my friend. We just chillin'." At this point, if I do got trust problems, it's because of your actions, 'cause, uh... Where'd y'all escape, I mean, how did y'all leave the house? I swear they didn't walk out the front door. They hopped out the window. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMING) 'Cause they didn't wanna walk past me. All right. Ms. Jackson, what happened? Your Honor, he fabricated that story. When he called me and told me he was on his way home, I had warned him that Josh was there. Nobody climbed out of the window. So, Josh is a friend of yours? Yes, Josh is a friend of mine. Do you have some kind of a relationship with Josh, other than being a friend? Yes. (AUDIENCE GASPS) Last Sunday we got in a big old argument. 'Cause she was out all night. And she came home at, like, 8:00 in the morning, and then... So I grabbed the phone and I heard her go up in the bathroom and lock the bathroom door, and she didn't know I had the password to her phone, so I put the password into the phone... Boom. I see that somebody inboxed her from social media a sex tape of her. (AUDIENCE GASPING) A sex tape of her? UMAR: Yeah. That was a year ago. And even after seeing that, man, I still forgave her and still tried to work it out. How do you know it was her in the sex tape? She got her name on her booty. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMING) DANA: Oh... You mean like a tattoo. UMAR: Yeah. Who was in the sex tape with her? Was it this guy Josh? Yes, your Honor. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) KEITH: Ms. Jackson, what happened with this sex tape? Yes, that was me in the sex tape. And, yes, that was Josh in the sex tape. I feel like I was pushed to the point of him... Uh, Umar, making me feel like I wasn't worthy, making me feel like everything I did was wrong, That made me feel like I was nothing. You know you lyin'. You know you lying'. And to make me feel like everything he was doing for the family was better than what I was doing. When I would break my back and try to go to work, and try to come home and be with the kids, he would complain that he was doing everything for the kids. But, yet, he was not working or providing anything financially. I wasn't? I wasn't? (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) All they (BEEP) for school... Wait! Mr. Taylor. Mr. Taylor, watch your language, please. I did more for the kids than you though. (GAVEL BANGING) (MUMBLES) I'm telling you, it's real though. I know you're upset. I know you're passionate. But this courtroom has rules. And you will have to operate in those rules. Am I clear? Yes, you honor. It won't happen again. DANA: All right. Mr. Taylor, after you found the sex tape, you all found a way to make your relationship work. Is that right? I forgave her. KEITH: You forgave her. Mmm-hmm. But that was in the past, and once you forgive someone for something in the past and move on, you move on, right? No, sometimes, like, it'd be situations that, like, a man will text her phone. But he would text some, like, illicit stuff. So, I'd bring up her character, like... You can't be doing that due to your history. from my previous mistakes. DANA: Ms. Jackson. Yes, your Honor. What did you do to change? UMAR: Nothing. Yes, I was planning on... You know what I'm saying, trying my hardest and putting in my 100% effort into repairing things. But there were things that he did that I did not find out about until we were married. When I was down, there was a point which was the beginning of the relationship where I was down. I was all for him. I was doing any and everything to be with him. Even stupid ignorant things, such as fighting other women for him, (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) And getting pregnant with other people's babies... So what do I do? Thought that you was for me if you get pregnant with other people's babies. Ms. Jackson, Mr. Taylor. UMAR: During the time... Mr. Taylor. During that time, too. Let it be known. Tell the court. (GAVEL BANGING) DANA: Mr. Taylor. Do not make me throw you out of here. But I will do it. I love your passion. And I understand you're fighting for your family. But we have got to do this in an orderly process. Yes, ma'am. DANA: So if you're not gonna let us do that we're going to have to put you out. I'm gonna try, your Honor. I'm sorry. All right. So, Ms. Jackson, your husband takes you back. Yes. DANA: You had a sex tape. Yes. The man from the sex tape you have in your house again. Yes. DANA: How in the world are you trying to do better by doing that? How does she still want me to trust her. Quiet. Your integrity should've told you, "This man don't need to be in my house. "I slept with him outside my marriage." (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) So, Mr. Taylor, you're now concerned that this guy named Josh maybe popping up again. Yes. Well, there's the wife's story, there's the husbands story, and then there's the lover's story. And we have the lover here. (AUDIENCE HOOTING) UMAR: Let's hear it. Oh, your lover's here. (UMAR LAUGHING) But I'm the husband though. Josh is here. Would you please escort him in? Yes, you Honor. (SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING) Now, we're going to the witness stand. I want you to stay... (WHISPERING SOFTLY) What do I look like choosing you if you choosing him. What you state your name please for the court? Josh Charles. Okay. Mr. Charles, we've heard evidence from Ms. Jackson and from Mr. Taylor that there was a sex tape involving Ms. Jackson. KEITH: Were you the man in that sex tape? Yes, I was the man in that sex tape. UMAR: Okay, I already knew that. Yeah. You like my sloppy seconds? DANA: Mr. Taylor. (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) Hey, hey. You got one more. Now you said you're here to get the truth. I am. Well, then, you gotta be quiet to get the truth. UMAR: All right. Let us do our job. I'm happy he's seen it though. Because now he can move on with his life and leave her alone. Mr. Charles. Respond to my questions, please. Yes, sir. Respond to Ms. Cutlers' questions. Yes, ma'am. That's it. What is the nature of your relationship to Ms. Jackson? Oh, that's my girlfriend right there... ...that's me right there. What? KEITH: That's your girlfriend. Yup. That's been going since June 14th. That's me right there. What? Does Ms. Jackson know she's your girlfriend? Or is that your fantasy that she's your girlfriend? I'm mean, she's mine mentally, physically... I'm feeding her body, I'm feeding her mind, I'm feeding her soul, I'm feeding everything. We've been going since June 14th, buddy, you messed up. It's on you. You messed up. Ain't no coming back. (BOTH) Mr. Charles. I'm a man. She's my woman. CHARLES: That's mine. Yeah. That is it! You talk to the judges. The judges period. You do not talk to anybody else in the courtroom except the judges. Understood? I will take you out. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMING) No problem. The judges only. Same with you. Shut the mouths. Mr. Charles, when was the last time that you were intimate with Ms. Jackson? This morning. (AUDIENCE GASPING) (AUDIENCE MURMURING) DANA: Ms. Jackson. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING) Ms. Jackson. Were you intimate with Mr. Charles this morning? See her reaction. DANA: Quiet. Yes, you Honor. DANA: "Yes, your Honor." Yes, your Honor. Ms. Jackson, you said you were here fighting for this relationship. Do you see the inconsistency with that statement and sleeping with this man this morning before you show up in my court? Saying I wanna be with this man and build my family. Do you see that inconsistency? Yes, your Honor, I see the inconsistency. (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) DANA: You know what? We're not even here talking about that. Because nobody has sat up here and testified they slept with him this morning. It's deceitful too, you know. These "intentions," you know. DANA: Okay, so, Mr. Taylor, you have the truth. You came here looking for answers and you got answers. UMAR: Mmm-hmm. It may or may not have been the answers you wanted, but you got the answers, you got the truth. What do you want to do with your relationship with Ms. Jackson? I wanna end it. Life goes on. You chose, you made your decision. I can't keep on trying to rescue you from your own decisions. You gotta live with them. KEITH: So you all been together for seven years. Seven years. And you were willing to throw seven years away? I guess so. She made that decision this morning. Ms. Jackson, is there anything you need to say to your husband? Honestly, I feel like he just brought me here to embarrass me. Your Honor, that's what I feel because... His word was that if I came here, we would be back together. It wasn't if I... Once he heard the truth, and I came here, that we will be back together. Not he will make his decision based on how today went. KEITH: But, Ms. Jackson... That's not what he said. You can't... You can't even believe that he was saying that if you came here today, and I found out you slept with someone this morning, everything will be okay. There's no way you could have believed that. DANA: I don't know what planet you working from, but it's not Earth. That is not how adult people process. UMAR: Look it up. (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) DANA: Mr. Charles. UMAR: I ain't got it. DANA: Mr. Charles. UMAR: Come see me. Come see me. (OVERLAPPING CONVERSATION) I understand, brother. I understand you pissed, and I would be, too. I know. (GROANS) But it ain't worth you getting in trouble. You understand? UMAR: You right. I know, I know, I know. You are right. DANA: Ms. Jackson... you've got some big decisions ahead of you. KEITH: Not just about this relationship. You've got some life decisions ahead of you. And whether you're married to him or not, y'all are together forever, 'cause kids are forever binding. KEITH: This is a volatile situation, it's not working. You see the tension between them. So, you gotta make a decision. Do you want your marriage, or do you want Mr. Charles? And that's a decision only you can make. But you gotta make that decision because from what I'm seeing up here, you can't have both. Talk to our counselors, as Ms. Cutler ordered, and don't cheat yourself out of a chance for a decent relationship as you move forward with your life and out of your co-parenting opportunities. Court is adjourned. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)
