they should settle this case on judge Judy. and have judge Judy be both the judge and the defendant running back and forth between the defendant's seat and the judge's seat.

This has nothing to do with this, as if they didn't agree to her salary they should have done it years ago. Judge Judy does not have to justify it to any one, this is political smearing.

“She is NOT named in the lawsuit” Only CBS is so why is this even news? 🤔😂🤣😂

Judge Judy: they don't keep me here cause I'm beautiful, they keep me here cause I'm SMART

So they, according to the contract, were entitled to 5% of the PROFITS. So if the programme does not make a profit then 5% of nothing is nothing. Next time the person who drafts the contract should learn the difference between profit and turn over.

Judge Judy is a hot commodity And I love her and her show dearly. I love her style but I must say I would never go on her show as a plaintiff or a defendant only because I probably would ramble on and she would tell me to save my problems for Dr. Phil.

They better hope judge judy isnt the judge in this case..😂 because 1 word.. DISMISSSED

This is why nobody builds contracts around profits…it’s based off revenue. Just because you made a bad deal doesn’t mean you should sue.

" You speak I rule and then you shut up " Sir yes sir!!

After all the pinheads, all the bull shit, every lie, all the soured things that humanity will lobby at each other and a Judge (and for years), yet she keeps her integrity. She calls them as she sees them. Yet she's not soured on people in general. After putting up with the silly foibles of cases not even worthy of her intellect, and the major heart breaking family court career before that, she's earned every damn penny, every red cent of it

The irony of all ironies

If a contract is signed its a signed contract. Lawyers were involved. They don't make mystakes. If anyone is going to know the law it's JUDY

Pocket change for her. Judge got her own multimillion dollar yacht.

I love that an entertainment company is finally getting the shit end of the stick!

she needs to host the oscars

If they're entitled to it, I'd just give it to them. She's going to continue making money. She has enough money for her grandkids after her grandkids.

Never base a royalty on net earnings. These can be slimmed down to nothing. Always make them a percentage of the gross.

It’s a bit late to claim money now. Where were they? She negotiated her salary, if they weren’t going to make enough, why sign a contract?

You would think that if they weren't paid for, at the time of this video, 6 years; they would have acted sooner.

Who needs 47 million dollars a year?

How much money does any one human need, no really $47 million a year????????? How about retire and make room for someone under 50 getting a shot? come on pandemic

Why shouldn't she get the money? She's the whole show! There's a reason she's still on and guys like Mills Lane and Joe Brown aren't.

She's worth EVERY MILLION ♡

Do the math!? That's almost a million dollar a WEEK! (Exactly $903,846.00 a WEEK!) OR $129,121.00 a DAY! OR almost $13,000. an HR! ( 10 HR day). Or $217.00 a MINUTE!

Those producers can cry me a friggin' river!!

The judge wrote a good contract.

47 million annually.. I mean its all good having a shit load of money in the bank but how the hell can someone justify not only being paid that obscene amount of money, but to be able to spend it all... At her age! It's no like she can take it with her when the grim reaper comes knocking.

I like watching Judge Judy, I like her as a person when she's being interviewed on other shows, she's not the same as she is in the courtroom, but demanding 47 MILLION per year as her annual salary, is a bit much. I couldn't spend that much money IN ONE lifetime, let alone receiving it EVERY YEAR. I see though that she IS getting older and she's probably tired of doing the show. I'm guessing she was hoping they wouldn't commit to that high of a payment. Lol... Judge Judy, everybody just likes you and the network KNOWS they get some wicked HIGH ratings as long as they keep you. You could probably get more than that because they don't want to lose their ratings, but I do have to say, there is NO WAY I would want to be a plaintiff OR a defendant in front of you. You're kind of scary on the bench. You say it like it is, and usually what people are thinking anyway, and that is why the corporation wants to keep you. You're very entertaining!

How the hell is she worth 47 million dollars. Crazy world we live in...

They can't stand a woman making that much money

I love judge Judy. She's amazing and hilarious at what she does. Wish she was in the business of making laws.

Judge Judy is my hero. I need her autograph.

lol They shouldn’t have agreed to her salary. This is ridiculous. 🙄

Bird only gets like a little over 100 thousand a year. He could at least get 1 million!

Oh poor production company.

That lawyer is so funny, they get 30% in a lawsuit win, so the potential payout could be epic.

Shes the iron lady of the court room.

They're going after her because she said that todays feminism is not real feminism. That she does not want to belong to a group and give them credit for what she did on her own. I'm sure she fought for the right to vote etc etc but it seems off of funny that since she said I don't want to belong to this way of thinking that go after

So what? How much money she makes, and what she does with it is her business. If CBS didn't like it, they would cancel the show.

What was she suppose to refuse the money?

They wouldn't be questioning so much if it was a man. She earner her cheque, they need to stop inquiring smh

Judge Judy deserves way more! She's an amazing Judge

How do you spell February????

I love her show, and one of Judge Judy's favorite sayings is, *"Beauty Fades, Dumb is Forever."*

Really has NOTHING to do with Judge Judy!!? Clickbait!!!!

Love her!! Love her book.!! She is the reason I watch!!

Damn 42 million wow

Judge Judy rocks

Has this case settled or has it gone to trial yet?

47 mil a year? And she acts THAT annoyed all the time?

Another reason to find judge Judy unpalatable... At best.

Typical Hollywood behavior. She is most likely a "work for hire" and not part of the proceeds. Typical distribution company.

So... you're suing the network not Judge Judy? Sensationalized title.

This case should be presented in judge Judy court

So tell me again how much a real "non celebrity" judge makes?

most of the new episodes are just fake or may so that most of the people that get on get no mater what $5000 on both side. it is funny on how some of the episodes before one of the newer season. to me there some cases where it sound like the plaintiff have all the evidence to win the case, but end up having it go to the other person or get dismiss. i know most of the hot bench episodes are better at being real. they have one cases where the landlord and his two witness are remove for not shutting there mouth and let the judges to ask them what the plaintiff have say about how things happen. i like most of the old episodes of the show when the cases are real and that when a person have all the evidence to win do win in the end.

If JJ says the lawsuit is a bunch of baloney, then it _is!!_

jj is a beast! daaaaaaamn!

That does sound like a pretty egregious breach of contract

Everyone needs to clap at judge Judy for being able to Earn that much.

Love love love Judge Judy.

Bleep them!

Judge Judy usually treats one or both of the litigants on her show with utter contempt, often resorting to insulting or abusive language such as name calling, and yet, she wouldn’t have a show without them! People can easily stop her cold by refusing to appear on her show and subject themselves to her abrasive personality and bogus sense of justice. Take your case to a legitimate court. The $100 appearance fee is not worth the public humiliation or vilification you will likely suffer regardless of the strength of your case. Don’t assume that because you have the necessary documentation you will win on Judge Judy. She may refuse to even look at it.

Hard to believe. Sounds just a bit late. Why weren't they in the negotiations when the entered the deal? Or...didvg bg ey underestimate the drawing power of Judge Judy??????

Has this case been settled yet. If so, what was the result?

Judge Judy is awesome, but holy shit, can anyone really justify a $47 million salary for themselves for doing their job? Imagine, she makes more in the time it takes her to deal with a case than the maximum $5000 small claims limit...Making judgments on cases dealing in complete chump change for her.

I LOVE you Very much Judge Judy.

That same attorney who complains about her $47M salary being too high, probably happily takes 33.75% of any settlement he gets for his clients.

That salary is way too much for anyone person.

Every 1 only watches her program because of her not the producers or any 1 else with their hands in the cookie jar!!!!

If it was a men earning that salary no one would complain!!

They'll be a settlements nt orvsomething...

That's a twist. JJ's company getting sued.

She is the show

The people who have watched the show,got a huge profit. They've understood what common sense is! She deserve every single penny and more respect! God bless her!

0:59 Februrary

It wouldn’t be on the air if it didn’t make money. What a bunch of bullshit

Who the anchor in the pink blouse?

Who cares bro. She’s the star of the show I wouldn’t even watch if someone else were presiding

She seems like the type to do that

Some people starve, other has too much.

💞 judge judy from malaysia !!

Hilarious....your ridiculous salary...ir the fact that they are sueing....

GOT DAMN!! 47 MILLION!!!

WHAT? I'd take half the pay!

She is not a judge no jail time,criminal record and the show pays out the money so you lose nothing going on it

Why the coming for all the great TV judges judge Joe Brown judge Judy now judge Mathis

What a waste of money

NO ONE on Television is worth that much !!!! And I’m a fan of J Judy,,,,,,,,,,,it’s obscene,,,,,,,,,,

“Februrary”

Well that is an interesting flag behind the judge to the right, isn't it?

did they win.

Love Judge Judy💕

6year was not an effective one for work with my family are not

People still watch that show ??

First of all we all know her show is fake, in the real world, in real small claims court the judges never act like she does. They are very polite and courteous. But wouldn't it be funny if the judge in her trial treated her and spoke to her like she speaks to defendants on her show.

some nights

47 million a year,,, why dose one person need that much income? Can I have some?

Who needs $45 million a year?!?!

Irony; Why is Judge Judy so pretty in every outing, event, photo when she is not at work... But on her show she is more pale (I'm MORE pale than she is..so not criticizing..just curious) and hair styled like a much older woman? C'mon Judge...with 47 million..make them allow you to be the "current" you!
