FOUR BLACK JUDGES, THREE HISPANIC ONES, AND NOW TWO JEWS???
Greg Mathis is straight ghetto. Marilyn Millan is saucy. Joe Brown is firm and Judy is tough as nails.
But when Judge Larry Seidlin gets his own courtroom show, they better put a big box of tissues on the bench.
Seidlin, the former New York cabbie turned weepy Florida judge, catapulted into the national spotlight when hizzoner presided over the fight over where to bury Anna Nicole Smith.
WHAT'S THIS ABOUT ANNA'S X-RAYS SHOWING UP NEAR THE JUDGE'S RESIDENCE?
Seidlin has apparently inked a deal to develop a 2008 show with CBS Television Distribution and is slated to film a pilot in L.A. next month, Broadcasting & Cable magazine reported on its Web site.
The Bronx-born jurist is leaving his court job after spending a week in Hollywood meeting with TV execs in search of a deal. His last day on the bench is July 31, according to his letter of resignation.
