Answer:

Straw man fallacy

Explanation:

The Straw man fallacy refers to an individual's ability to ignore his opponent's argument in a debate, distort that argument and distort what the opponent was actually referring to. This is done in an attempt to undermine rational speech and to present an argument of opposition in an easier and more reasonable way.

An example of this can be seen in the question above, where Judy distorted Mark's argument and gave a totally different meaning than Mark wanted to express.
