In season 20, episode 77 of Judge Judy, titled "Judge Judy Busts a Liar!; Horse Repo!," Judge Judith Sheindlin presides over two cases that test her patience and expertise in legal matters.

She repeatedly points out discrepancies in the defendant's story and demands evidence to back up her claims. After much back-and-forth, Judge Judy finally issues a ruling that leaves one party elated and the other dismayed.
