Pretty sure Judge Judy screens the cases for television appeal.

In my last post, I mentioned I spent a year in prison; a concentration of deceit. There's more pathological liars there than society as a whole. Observing that environment was what flipped the switch in me. I stopped cursing and always spoke honestly from that moment. Seeing how deceit was a cancer in every aspect of people's lives will wake anyone up who is even dimly observant. Your options then is to either strive to be king in the prison of deceit, or to transcend it. Strangely, developing the reputation of honesty in that environment earns you respect, even from the dishonest people.
I can't have any relationship with a pathological liar, because there's nothing real to have a relationship with.
Regarding Judge Judy, real courts recommend cases to the show. Both parties have a financial incentive to appear, because the show pays whatever judgement Judy decides. Plus they get a free trip to Hollywood.
