About the Judy Justice series

Sheindlin is joined in the courtroom with bailiff Kevin Rasco, a retired Los Angeles probation officer and entrepreneur, court stenographer Whitney Kumar, a board-certified court reporter in the state of California, and Sarah Rose, a law clerk, and Judge Sheindlin’s granddaughter, as Judy keeps the legacy going with a new generation of legal analysis.

And Judge Judy’s longtime executive producer and director Randy Douthit and co-executive producer Amy Freisleben are back in the fold.

The trio worked on Judge Judy for more than 25 years, and with Judy Justice, they introduce the magic of Judy’s withering patience, fierce intellect, and rapid-fire wit in the streaming realm.

“I am probably the luckiest on-air personality in the history of television to have had Randy Douthit, and Amy Freisleben shepherd my program for over two decades. They continuously make me look good. With Judy Justice on IMDb TV, the magic continues,” said Judge Sheindlin in a press release to TV Shows Ace.

Quotes and notes

“Our bailiff Kevin has been in charge of my security for the last three years. He comes from law enforcement, has a winning smile, a delightful personality, and is always professional. Whitney was a truly lucky find. A skilled court stenographer for 15 years, she brings warmth, great proficiency, and, best of all, can refresh my memory in a heartbeat with her machine. I’ve known Sarah, our law clerk since she was born. She will be a third-generation female lawyer in our family. She’s smart, sassy, and opinionated. Who knows where she gets those traits?”
