Judge Judy Halts Court Case to Kick Out Audience Member for Laughing Too Loud

I enjoy spending my limited free time these days watching videos on YouTube. I particularly enjoy watching episodes of "Judge Judy." It's a challenge for me to watch the program on TV, largely because its daytime programming. The challenge to watching programs like "Judge Judy" on YouTube is that they quickly get yanked from the platform for violating copyright law. So you have to be quick if you want to share anything of interest on the blog or else the video that I watched earlier in a day has disappeared by the time that I have time to write about it!

I watched this fun episode earlier today. It involved a woman suing her ex-boyfriend for damage caused to her laptop computer. He's a habitual criminal who accepted commissary money from her while he was locked away and got her pregnant within days of his release. She later claimed that he ran over her cell phone with her car and tore apart her laptop during a fit of anger. Unfortunately, she had no evidence and the case was tossed out.

But that's not what I'm writing about. I'm writing about the poor audience member who managed to be on the receiving end of Judge Judy's stink eye! I'm not 100% certain what he did that upset her. I'm pretty sure that his boisterous laughter irritated her. She glared at him once and then resumed the case. She suddenly stopped the hearing and ordered the man in blue out of the courtroom! The guy looked horrified and confused, but eventually got up and slinked out of room.

And just like that the case resumed -- and the defendant ran out of the courtroom in angry tears.

I can't help wondering what happens when you get kicked out of the "Judge Judy" audience. Are you allowed to return on another day? Are you permanently banned? Stuff to ponder on a sleepy Sunday...
