"Real" Judge?

1/13/2015

Comments

 
Some of you have been asking about the difference between a "TV Judge" and a "real judge." This is a great question and I am always happy to educate how the legal profession works. First, television judges are not allowed to actively serve on the bench in an actual court of law. As far as our backgrounds prior to serving on our respective court shows, some of us were sitting judges while others were and continue to be attorneys. In my case, I have been a licensed attorney for nearly 20 years and television judge for over a decade.

On our respective court shows, "TV judges" perform the same duties that a sitting judge would in a small claims or lower court. We must be extremely well versed in all areas of the law in order to hear these cases. One simply cannot "fake it" when it comes to being a judge - whether inside or outside a television courtroom. I believe that the diverse legal background and experiences of television judges plays an important role in educating viewers about how the law works in the courts.  Our shows depict a fast paced and concise nature of that process. I have arbitrated and ruled on over 2,500 cases.

It has been my privilege to serve countless clients and litigants on my court shows. The law is my passion and I am honored to share such with you, using television as a vehicle to educate. As always, thank you for watching 'Justice for All'!  See you in Court!

Yours Truly,
Judge Cristina Perez
