** He once declared a mistrial because exactly two weeks to the second happened to coincide with Peter Potamus asking the prosecution if he got that thing he sent them (that thing being important to the case, in this instance) and the prosecution had, up until now, failed to acknowledge that yes, they had gotten it. Since Harvey was the one on trial, that's okay then. |

* The traffic court judge in ''[[The Jetsons]]'' is little more than an image on a bendable flatscreen which is unrolled at kerbside (so literally "hanging", like a portable film projection screen). He appears just long enough to find the operator of some random flying saucer guilty. What if they're not guilty |

* And there's also the judge in the ''[[Home Movies]]'' episode where Brendon's bike was destroyed in an accident. Brendon had been riding his bike on the wrong side of the road, and he was struck by a car, head-on. The judge showed ''no'' sympathy toward Brendon who was on trial over said accident, when ''Brendon was nearly killed''. Note that Brendon is eight years old. |

* [[Punny Name|Judge Mental]] from [[Spin-Off|the animated version of]] ''[[Beetlejuice (animation)|Beetlejuice]]'' certainly qualifies here since he thinks EVERY punishment equals "sending them to Sandworm Land".
