I don't know about that Judge Judy, but I have seen in the german cable TV siilar programs. Here in Spain we had loooong ago a program were minor civil cases were trialed not as real trials but throught a "referee contract" by an old, retired magistrate of the supreme court. Felt like killing spiders with a gun, ad it was also terribly boring.Why is it that those of us who work in real life in the courts don't find it entertaining nor in real life or in TV? It doesn't but amaze me that people are interesting in watching in the TV such stupid trials, but come to think of it there's possibly some worser rubbish with high audience rates....
