JUDGE JUDY SHEINDLIN claims she has never filed a real life lawsuit – that is – UNTIL NOW! And boy, is it getting UGLY!
CourtHouse News reported that in March, Judith Sheindlin, better known as the eponymous “Judge Judy” on the syndicated daytime TV court series sued John Haymond and his Haymond Law Firm, claiming they used her image without permission in a commercial for the firm
Haymond fired back last month with a countersuit, claiming he had been asked to use the footage in the commercial by the stations that helped create it. Haymond says in the countersuit that he's a "fan of the 'Judge Judy' television show" and was "happy" with the co-op advertising arrangement.
