HOTBENCH was created by judge Judith Sheindlin: it is a panel-based court show, with 896
episodes as of October 19, 2018. It features a panel of three judges who
preside over small-claims cases and finally render a verdict. The idea of the
show was inspired by a visit to Ireland where they use panels of three judges
to handle one case. Watch and listen!
