Cashonte Short filed a lawsuit against Richard Jordan in the 67th District Court alleging "deliberate infliction of emotional distress" after he failed to show up for a date with her.

The virtual hearing took place on Zoom and things quickly escalated.

“Honestly, sir, I thought she would just forget it,” Jordan told judge Herman Marable Jr. "We had a date, just one, and nothing more after that, and now I'm being sued for $10. I think it's a waste of your time."

Short claims the man lied about going on a date with her and accused him of "perjury". The judge told her that she could not define the situation with this concept.

He also accused the woman of misunderstanding the term she was talking about: “You understand! This is a false statement made under oath! Under oath! This is a false statement made under oath."

The judge continued to convince the woman that she misrepresented her statements in the lawsuit.

He explained: "I don't see anything in the complaint confirming that he gave false testimony under oath."

To which Short replied: “Since you don’t know what happened, then look from the side! You don't know anything."

However, the judge remarked: “But you are a participant in the situation, so you should have correctly stated your charges.”

The judge told the woman that she went to the wrong court because her lawsuit "is not within the jurisdiction of the district court."

He advised her to either close the case or take it to the district court.

She replied, “You said there was no perjury. I didn't know that a felony for intentionally inflicting emotional stress was considered a crime."

This isn't the first time Short has filed a baseless lawsuit. She previously sued the Flint Police Department and AT&T.

Although both cases were dismissed, it can be assumed that Short will not simply drop this lawsuit.

At the very least, she and Jordan would end up getting another date... in court. Judge Marable Jr. ultimately took the case to the district court.
