Judge Judy’s Brooklyn Attitude

TV Judge Judith Sheindlin recalls the talk that led her to the bench

Judith Sheindlin, 72, stars on the syndicated TV show “Judge Judy,” the highest-rated program on daytime television—now in its 20th season. Last year, she created a new courtroom show, “Hot Bench.” She spoke with Marc Myers.

"The first thing I learned as a child in Brooklyn was to look both ways before crossing the street outside my family’s house. It was a simple judgment lesson, but it taught me to think before I put my foot out in life and to be sure to get both sides of every story.

If you come from Brooklyn, you have a certain way of looking at the world. Street smarts matter. You can have all the academic gifts in the world, but if you’re not street smart, you’re not smart. Street smarts is about questioning what you’re told and studying people and their behavior.

I was born on Quincy Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. My mother and father lived with their parents then. A year after I was born, my father, Murry, was drafted into the Army during World War II. He was a dentist, so we moved to military bases in Texas and Virginia. My only memory of that time is being taught dirty songs by the soldiers. I liked performing.

When I was 3, we returned to Brooklyn and lived at 225 Parkside Ave. in the Flatbush section. It was an apartment building where my grandparents and my mother’s two sisters lived. The building gave me a sense of community and provided protection.

Then in 1952, we moved from the bosom of a maternal family to a single-family house at 2420 Ocean Ave., where my dad had his private practice. For a time, I was miserable.

I still stay in touch with neighbors from Brooklyn. We’re a tribe and understand each other. I don’t have to speak in whole sentences. Half of what we communicate is done with facial expressions, like the “Are you for real?” look.

I knew from age 12 that I didn’t want to become a dentist like my father, but I knew I needed a profession. I used to listen to my mother, Ethel, and her friends talk. Most of them didn’t work outside the home, and they all talked about an allowance. Children get an allowance, and here were grown women waiting for their husbands to give them money. I told myself I’d never be in a position where I’d be an adult waiting for someone to give me something.

I needed a profession, but nothing inspired me. My father said, “Why don’t you become a senator?” That sounded great, but I didn’t know where to start. First, he said, you have to go to law school.

From that moment on, I really wanted to be a lawyer. In high school, I did relatively well thanks to Cliffs Notes. Reading them in high school wound up helping me in law school. Their push-comes-to-shove approach taught me to process key information quickly—what’s the issue, the question, the decision and the reasoning.

My sense of outrage originates with my family’s way of looking at life. We were taught that if you do the right thing, the right thing will happen.

After law school in 1965, I became an attorney and then a prosecutor. I was appointed a family-court judge in 1982 and a supervising judge in 1986. I noticed that someone always winds up controlling the courtroom—litigants, attorneys, prosecutors, someone. I made sure that that someone was me.

Back then, many judges in family court kept the press out of their courtrooms. I liked allowing the press in to cover what was going on. I thought the public should be allowed to see if they’re getting a bang for their buck.

n 1993, I was profiled on “60 Minutes” and I let them shoot in my courtroom. When TV’s “People’s Court” was canceled the same year, two of the show’s producers were going to be without jobs. One said, “Let me call this judge in New York who was on ‘60 Minutes.’ ” And that’s how “Judge Judy” started in 1996.

To do what I do on TV, you need a sense of humor. You also need timing, which I got from my father. He was a great storyteller.

When I’m working, my husband, Jerry, and I live in Los Angeles in a hotel with residential floors. In the summer, we live in Greenwich, Conn. In the winter, we live in Naples, Fla., in a high-rise with a lovely view of the Gulf of Mexico. It’s a little different from the apartment building in Brooklyn. Now, the elevator only goes to my apartment, and I rarely see anyone in the building. But it’s nice to know there are people upstairs and downstairs..."

The older she gets, the better she gets IMO. I don't always agree with her,
but I get a huge kick out of her and her no nonsense attitude, she reminds
me of one of my aunts when I was a child.

I was cleaning out my filters today and took Ophelia out. The very next

This is her brilliant reply to 140 quoted lines....

It's supposed to be idiotic entertainment, you want real idiotic...
Judge Judy is the highest paid personality of any TV show on the
planet.
http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2013/09/10/why-judge-judy-is-highest-paid-tv-star-in-world.html
To be perfectly honest I watch Judge Judy regularly because it's one
of the daytime TV shows where many of the female litigants and female
courtroom spectators exhibit the finast breast cleavage... none of
that faux Hollywood surgery... I find nothing alluring about a huge
blob of sillycone in a push up, then I'd much rather drive around the
corner to check out the real deals at my neighbor's dairy farm. I've
been in his barn at milking time with all those humming mechanical
milkers, watching all those plump udders getting sucked got this old
man hornier than his three year old bull... well not nearly if you'd
see that bull's equipment... that bull would easily embarrass a stud
stallion... and his wife named that bull Peewee! LOL

That's because we all got older too. LOL

>I don't always agree with her,

Sometimes she screws up big time, especially with interpreting
property damage values and assigning blame... but all those TV judges
screw up the same. I think they are biased by litigant's physical
appearance and how they present themselves. Judge Judy often makes
disparaging remarks about how people look and dress... which makes no
sense as the show is taped and I'm sure there's a make up and wardrobe
person on staff.

LOL yourself. I've heard of him, know what Candid Camera is. Sorry I

But yes, Judge Judy lets them go on and on and make asses out of
themselves and that's what fun about the show. They all agree the
outcome is final. They can't get more than $5000 despite their wishes
because it's already stated in the contract.

These people just want to be on TV. Meanwhile, who cares what Judge
Judy looks like?

Seems to me she's toned down a bit. Used to be she'd send young women
out of the courtroom to put on a jacket or sweater to cover up if she
thought they were not "dressed appropriately" for court. (I happened to
agree with that assessment.)

She's still fun to watch occasionally. I don't care about her face or
anything else. She does have common sense. Oh, and judicial
experience, Family and Criminal Court Judge. And $43 million more than
we do. LOL

Luckily, "bald" had been the fashion now for years. If I lost half my
hair, I think I'd just shave it all off and be in fashion. :-D

Also odd to me is the current fashion of not shaving. What's with that?

I usually grow a beard in late fall. This year's beard started about
three weeks ago and I have had several people ask me if it is for
Movember. I always thought Movember involved moustaches, not beards.

LOL! Good come-back, Dave. I assume then that you like
the sissy version of "football."

I will say one thing. Of all the sports in the world, the soccer guys
have to be the most fit athletes of all. All that constant aerobic
running back and forth. No way you'll ever see a fat soccer player.

Australia is to become the first country in the world to microchip its

Australians are turning themselves into super-humans who can unlock
doors, turn on lights and log into computers with a wave of the hand.

This is a USA thing. Yeah...sissy soccer. Sport for wussy boys.
Put on some armor and try American Football for a real man's sport.

Not one sissy soccer football game where babies run around in shorts.

I'll grant you that NBA is calorie burning too but
I still say that sissy-soccer burns more calories.

The worst is baseball. They spend most of the game time
standing around and chewing gum or tobacco and spitting
constantly. Very little calorie-burning activity. ;)

Impossible it's not near as athletic, no dunks, no rebounds, no
appreciable defense.

Soccer player don;t use their pipe cleaner sized arms for anything other
than flipping their fancy hair back.

As opposed to the American sport where so many guys think that being
athletic means wearing the team shirt of the teams for the sport where
men wear capri pants that show off their buttocks and their team mates
keep slapping each other on the butt. I realize that it is not a sisssy
sport to play, but to watch with great interest? That is another matter.

Soccer OTOH.... that's about as exciting as baseball or watching paint
dry. Never the less, the players are on the field and on the move for
the entire game.

Long ago and (thankfully) far, far away, my wife always wanted me to
grow a beard. I told her someday when I have many days off of work. Then
came a 10-day Christmas vacation.

I woke up on Thursday morning and didn't shave. I didn't shave on
Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.
Monday morning I couldn't stand it anymore so I shaved. The wife got mad
at me for it. Go figure.

My family and friends are so used to me growing a beard and shaving it
off a month or two later that stopped noticing it. I generally grow a
beard in late October or November when the temperature starts dropping
and it takes only 2-3 weeks for a decent one. After a couple weeks of it
I get tired of it and shave. Then I end up growing another one because I
hate shaving every day. It can come and go 3-4 times over a winter. You
have no idea how cold your face gets in the winter air until you have
shaved off a beard.
