Created by Judge Judy Sheindlin, Emmy-nominated HOT BENCH is the first-ever three-judge bench on television, where plaintiffs and defendants seek justice from a panel of judges, who argue the merits of cases amongst themselves to come to a verdict. Additionally, viewers are treated to a bird's eye view of how the court functions, watching the judges hash out the facts and law during deliberations where ultimately majority rules.
