good day everyone I was born and raised in Detroit growing up there I saw people like me running things this is a courtroom not a circus so we going to calm down I'm sorry what I found there was a passion that I didn't know existed this is the bottom line I'm excited to freef fall into the Limitless possibilities with we the people so many are fearful of the law they think it's something that works against them I think you need to begin to accept responsibility for your mistakes we are the people Jeffrey Lennox claims his ex-wife lied about having cosmetic surgery so he was shocked when their child didn't look like either of them Tanya pointer says her ex-husband is superficial and called their baby ugly all right court is now in session the honorable Judge Lauren Lake presiding hello y hello please be seated good day everyone good day this is the case of lenx versus pointer Mr lenux you are suing Miss pointer for $9,800 for breach of contract is that correct yes your honor and Miss pointer you say the plaintiff is being superficial and and you did not breach any contract is that correct all right I'll start with you Mr Lennox what happened thank you your honor well uh what happened I mean it I imagined back to when I was a child and on the counter at my family home I see photos of my family going down generations and I saw little me there and I imagined one day that I would have my own child uh to have a picture with uh on that counter so fast forward and I'm now looking for a wife and you know like like every young man dreams I'm sure like a lot of people dream they they imagine who their wife is going or their husband is going to look like and and I was imagining somebody that was tall um ambitious mentally fit and capable uh honest and and uh attractive I I feel that I have received certain opportunities and gained uh a lot through my my looks I I I'm I have to say and I wanted my child to um be raised in a similar fashion so I I was you know looking for uh you taking 10 minutes to say you wanted to have a baby that you thought was pretty I I wanted to have a child yeah I wanted to have the the life that I thought of yes your honor and the life you thought of was a life of what a child that looked like you yeah I mean a child that looked like they they uh yes your honor but not I mean I I found uh Tanya uh at the gym after a spin class and I whatever boxes I may have needed to check she she seemed to check all of them I mean look at her you met Mr Lennox at the gym yes your honor you liked him he liked you yes your honor you started a relationship yes your honor were you or were you not forthcoming about your life your family your background your past I was as much as I felt like I needed to disclose I did not disclose to him certain things about my past I did let him know that my parents were killed in a plane crash leaving my brother and I all alone took me to figure that out your honor like I I I spent we're talking months of our relationship before enough she would cry focused on my eventually got her to tell me so I didn't really feel like there was an opportunity for me to share a heartfelt moment with him so wait you all are in a relationship but you didn't ever feel there was time for you to have a heartfelt moment with a man you're in a relationship with that doesn't make sense well the the the issue at hand is my cosmetic procedures after my parents were killed in the plane crash I underwent a ton of cosmetic procedures so that I would not have to be reminded of my mother and what had happened to her so I did this is all cosmetic surgeries um and I just wanted to be away with my past and he felt like because I did not disclose that to him that now our child is ugly we just had a child and he started calling my baby ugly my baby is only one years old he's handsome and he says that because the child does not look like his family lineage that is that my baby is ugly your honor that well Mr Linux I don't understand how you could be upset with what a new baby looks like what why are you upset about that it is not my child's looks that upset me so what is it it was seeing my child for the first time and how it felt I was looking at a complete stranger didn't look like either parent it put into Motion in my head now what had been I guess percolating for a while that that this woman that I thought I knew would not telling me about her life and I immediately my first thought was she would must be cheating on me this this this child doesn't look like me so the baby you felt like the baby didn't look like you and didn't look like Miss pointer so you were like I'm not the father coming up I made it very clear your H so you said I want to have a child with you but just tell me have you had any plastic surgery your honor I didn't feel the need to ask I mean look at her it's very well very well done she she looks amazing well done you acting like somebody baked her in the oven and later we got escorted out of oh cuz after the phone flew and all that happened y'all got escorted out of the ballet closed captioning provided by if you'll be in the Los Angeles area and want to bring your case to court call 1888 55267 you're watching we the people with judge Lauren Lake we're back with the case of Jeffrey Lennox who brought his ex-wife Tanya pointer to court after he says she lied to him she knows my position on plastic surgery I I think it's disingenuous and it lacks Integrity I would not have married let alone pay for an IVF uh fertilization treatment with someone who had an addiction to plastic surgery like Tanya certainly does and you say that before you all decided to have a sexual relationship I made it very clear your honor so you said I want to have a child with you I'm willing to pay for IVF but just tell me have you had any plastic surgery I your honor I didn't feel the need to ask I mean look at her it's very well very well done she she looks amazing well done you AC like somebody baked her in the oven with all the the surgery she's gotten which is by the way is worth way more than the $10,000 $9,800 that I'm that I'm here seeking to recoup it it is as if I mean some somebody really went to work on her and and of course I don't know anything about that nothing about that what does this mean I'm not liking the way you're objectify pointer apologize for that but I I I offer into evidence a photo here that I found uh and please tell me your honor if that looks like the same person to you actually she looks a little different but the shape of her face the shape of her eyes her eyebrows her nose is different may I just say that I'm not ashamed of that photo I did not get I did not get those cosmetic procedures because I thought that I was ugly I got those cosmetic procedures because it was traumatizing looking in the mirror and being reminded of my mother's face so it was very devastating for me to find out that he felt like our child was ugly I did not get those procedures to become this different person I got those procedures so that I wouldn't be reminded of what had happened in my past then why did you say that you're the new Tanya now and the old Tanya is dead and forget about her I mean because the old Tanya died when her you didn't know the old Tanya anyway right I didn't and I still don't I don't know the new one either I had to pull teeth to get but wait a minute so your testimony is you don't know her but you also decided to pay for IVF treatments to have a baby with her but you didn't know her she wouldn't answer questions she wouldn't tell you anything about her past she wouldn't let you know about her family but you know what this is the girl I want to have a baby with through IVF make make sense Mr Linux I don't have all day she assured me that who she was loved me unconditionally dearly and that she was wholly honest with me and that there was no need for me to worry now I find out that that entire argument that entire line what she what she allowed me to believe what I allowed myself to believe that was a cover story to prevent me from understanding that she hacked at her body to upgrade herself I mean her her brother apparently used it to to try to start a new life she upgrades her physical form or something she for your honor hold on hold on why are you being so melodramatic about plastic surgery it's the lies you say you're suing her for breach a contract what's the contract and it better say in this contract I'm going to pay for this IVF as long as you are the natural original version of yourself with no plastic surgery I want to see that contract where is that I your honor it's a marriage contract I I feel like I have been used the damage is is plain I I I was she was beautiful before the surgery she's beautiful after the surgery what is the issue I want to know what your damages are I was lied to and I can't have that lack of trust in a relationship for the rest of my life okay so you want to get a divorce we have gotten a divorce here okay so now you're divorced so now what's your issue you got a divorce you're not with the liar you're not married to anybody that had plastic surgery anymore what is your issue my issue is that we did not have a prenuptual uh engagement going and I want something I want some measure of honesty from you Tanya some measure of honesty that that you understand honesty don't cost $9,800 I want to know why are you up in here when I could be having my morning tea why are you suing because I said I had an ugly baby there you go wasting my time is is is a picture of the baby in the evidence yes it is there he is right there so you're angry because this baby doesn't look the way you envisioned in your mind this is insanity you should be ashamed of yourself for even coming in here with this nonsense your honor if I may I I felt I made it very clear I had a dream when I was young and and it was to not have a disingenuous lying deceitful wife and that is what I found that I've had no what we found is that you are Del illusional okay and guess what if this is really what you wanted you didn't have the agreement that reflected what your desires truly were I don't know if this is because you all have broken up I really don't know what this about but you stood in this
