(Scroll down for video) Judge Judy might just get a taste of her own medicine.
Judge Judy will now have to stand on the defendant's side of the table to be judged.
Judge Judy Sheindlin is being sued for allegedly buying $500,000 worth of fine china dinnerware for a bargain price of $50,000.
Judge Judy calls the lawsuit "frivolous".
Patric Jones filed a lawsuit claiming that her former husband Randy Douthit, who is a producer of the Judge Judy television show, sold their expensive Christofle Mary Bone China to Judge Judy at one-tenth of the value.
Jones claims that the dinnerware was sold for $50,000, although Jones said it is worth $514,421.14.
The couple has divorced. Jones claims that her former husband sold the communal property items without her consent.
Because the sale was made without consent, Jones claims that Sheindlin must return the items or pay the rest of what she thinks its worth.
"I do not owe a penny to this lady," Judge Scheindlin said.
"If this woman would have spent her time more productively in trying to find a job, instead of abusing the court system with frivolous lawsuits, we'd all be much better," she added.
