An iconic TV judge is stepping away from the on-screen bench after more than 30 years.
Judy Sheindlin, better known as Judge Judy, is retiring after decades of delivering sharp-tongued verdicts, Page Six first reported.
The 83-year-old told People that when “Judy Justice” wraps in October, she will be moving away from on-camera work to focus on other endeavors.

She will also help produce her son’s syndicated courtroom TV show, “Adam’s Law,” which is slated to debut Monday, several news outlets report.
Sheindlin earned her law degree from New York Law School and was appointed to the Family Court bench in 1982, later becoming supervising judge in Manhattan.
She gained a reputation for her direct, no-nonsense style, and after appearing on “60 Minutes,” she was recruited for television, launching the syndicated courtroom show “Judge Judy” in 1996.
The show became a phenomenon, running on daytime television through 2021.
Sheindlin then made a move to streaming with “Judy Justice” in 2021, with the successful program running through this year.
