HOT BENCH

HOT BENCH, created by Sheindlin, who headlines the #1 show in syndication JUDGE JUDY, will premiere on stations across the country in Fall 2014. HOT BENCH adds a new dimension to the court genre, with a panel of three judges -- Judge Patricia DiMango and attorneys Tanya Acker and Larry Bakman -- hearing court cases, arguing the merits of the case amongst themselves and rendering a verdict. The half-hour strip will be produced and distributed by CBS Television Distribution.
