The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/tag\/marty-singer\/\">Marty Singer<\/a>-represented Sheindlin promises to give all the cash to \u201cthe charity Stand Up To Cancer,\u201d declares the jury trial-seeking complaint filed this morning in Los Angeles Superior Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s the nice part. The rest of the complaint takes a much harsher tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDefendant Richard Lawrence is an unethical and self-dealing talent agent, and one of the luckiest men in the world.\u201d states the filing, with the prose flourishes the Lavely &amp; Singer firm typically provide their high-profile clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLawrence did not package the&nbsp;<em>Judge Judy<\/em>&nbsp;daytime television series and yet, in what is the most absurd, unconscionable and unlawful purported packaging fee arrangement in the history of television, Lawrence and his agency have been paid in excess of Twenty-Two Million Dollars ($22,000,000) in fees \u2013 effectively stealing from the Series\u2019 bona fide profit participants, including Sheindlin,\u201d the filing from Singer, Todd Eagan and Melissa Lerner adds. \u201cSheindlin demands that Lawrence return his ill-gotten gains for the good of all of the profit participants in the Series.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe objective facts are that Lawrence did not represent the talent on the one-star program that is&nbsp;<em>Judge Judy<\/em>; the only people he did represent were two non-writing producers fired during the first season leaving them uncompensated for producer fees, and he has not once set foot on the set of the Series in 24 years,\u201d the new suit continues. (BTW: those \u201ctwo non-writing producers\u201d are Kaye Switzer and Sandi Spreckman. Remember them, their names will come up later.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe harm to Sheindlin and the other profit participants is ongoing and continuing with each new season of the Series, for which Defendants receive the purported packaging fees,\u201d Wednesday\u2019s 13-page filing pronounces. \u201cThe fees are deducted from Sheindlin\u2019s share of Adjusted Gross Receipts for the Series continuously for each new season of the Series. Sheindlin\u2019s rights are violated each and every time the fees are deducted from her share of AGR.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rebel\u2019s lead attorney hit back like he was in the combative&nbsp;<em>Judy Judy<\/em>&nbsp;courtroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRebel is entitled to profit participation based on the written agreement with Big Ticket which CBS acquired,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.creativespikedigital.com\/lftc\/attorneys\/bryan-j-freedman\/\">Bryan Freedman<\/a> to Deadline this morning. \u201cJudy has no legal standing to prevail on these ridiculous claims and she will not only lose this case but she will be sued for malicious prosecution based on this frivolous action. The case is so weak that even if she was the judge, she would lose it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, on one level, this all could become moot to some degree in the next year or so anyway. Although all parties will undoubtedly battle over the fine print as it relates to spinoffs and the likes of the Sheindlin-created\u00a0<em>Hot Bench<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Judge Judy<\/em>\u00a0is<a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2020\/03\/judge-judy-ends-25-seasons-judy-sheindlin-judy-justice-ellen-degeneres-show-1202871873\/\">\u00a0closing up shop<\/a> after its 25th season in 2021. A TV pro now, Sheindlin is already looking for a probable streaming home for her sequel of sorts\u00a0<em>Judy Justice<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, back in the courts, on August 4, the Freedman + Taitelman-represented Rebel sued Sheindlin, CBS Corporation and others for more than $5 million over the $95 million sale of the&nbsp;<em>Judge Judy<\/em>&nbsp;library to the then Les Moonves-run company&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2017\/08\/cbs-acquires-judge-judy-library-rights-extends-deal-through-2021-season-25-judith-sheindlin-1202144780\/\">in 2017.<\/a>&nbsp;At that time, Sheindlin responded: \u201cIf Mr. Lawrence can produce a contract, signed by me and Mr. Lawrence on the same page, at any time in history from the beginning of time, I will toast that contract, smear it with cream cheese and eat it on national television.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turns out Sheindlin now wants a very different sort of meal \u2013 a piece of Lawrence and Rebel themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was only by egregious self-dealing violating his fiduciary duties to his clients Switzer and Spreckman \u2013 leaving them completely unprotected so that they were exposed to being fired from the Series after only one year \u2013 that Lawrence purportedly obtained packaging fees despite not providing any packaging services,\u201d Wednesday\u2019s three-claim complaint reads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flashback:<a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2018\/01\/judge-judy-lawsuit-breach-of-contract-cbs-1202266773\/\">&nbsp;In early 2018,<\/a>&nbsp;<em>Judge Judy<\/em>&nbsp;co-creators Switzer and the trust of the late Spreckman filed their own suit against Sheindlin, CBS and CBS unit Big Ticket TV claiming they were owed $4.75 million from the nearly $100 million sale of the show three years ago. That case is still moving through the courts and is set for trial next year, if it isn\u2019t resolved beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jumping back to 2016, Rebel filed a previous suit against CBS Studios, CBS Corporation, and producers and CBS TV Studios-owned Big Ticket over profits from the extremely profitable&nbsp;<em>Judge Judy<\/em>. Though her name and more than $47 million salary was all over the paperwork, Sheindlin was not named as a defendant in that case,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2020\/02\/judge-judy-profits-lawsuit-settlement-cbs-les-moonves-michael-bloomberg-1202853192\/\">which settled earlier this year<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sheindlin has not formally replied to the latest Rebel suit of August 4, yet clearly today\u2019s new complaint is her way of saying, as she does on her soon-to-end show: \u201cDon\u2019t pee on my leg and tell me it\u2019s raining.\u201d<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EXCLUSIVE:&nbsp;Judge Judy&nbsp;is still on the air, but on Wednesday the long-running successful syndicated series launched a new spinoff \u2013 in court.
