She can be as arrogant as the girl in that video. Her conduct and treatment of litigants in the courtroom, IMO, is unbecoming that of a judge...and that opinion is shared by even some of her colleagues.

LOL, you're a trip.

She's a television personality. People tune in to watch her personality and watch her tear people down on TV. Have you ever been to a REAL court? Nobody would want to watch that on TV.

If anybody is a trip, she is. Read what Judge Wapner, a judge himself from the People's Court, has to say about her:

OK...if you want to class it as a television comedy, then you might have a point. But her actions are certainly not those of a legitimate judge in a legitimate court....or even those of some of her colleagues on other TV court-shows.

Have you ever been to a REAL court? Nobody would want to watch that on TV.
Yes, I have. I was the jury foreman on an auto-related civil case. I was in there for the better part of two days.....and it made more sense than two whole months of her show.

I don't mean to drag us too far off-topic either...the road-rage incident.

Well, she gets paid $40M a year to be a judge on TV, so I don't think she really gives a crap what anybody thinks.

Seriously, she's one of the highest paid TV personalities in the world.

You're an interesting fellow lol.

She's not truly a "judge" on that show. She's a private arbitrator, in a private arbitration proceeding established to gain TV ratings and make her insanely rich. So--of course she's going to act like that. And it doesn't stop any of those participants from voluntarily going on the show. They all get what they bargained for.
