People’s Court is not a judicial court at all. When litigants go on the show, they are consenting to what is known as “binding arbitration,” with the judge acting as the arbiter over the case. The “court room” in People’s Court, where the action takes place, is just a television set to add to the drama to the show. The litigants are paid an appearance fee of $250 so even the court show “losers” get to take something home.
The People’s Court has been delivering reality television to viewers for over three decades beginning with the no-nonsense Judge Joseph Wapner in September 1981. Doug Llewelyn was the court reporter who summarized each case at the end of the show. The first version was based in Los Angeles and ran until June 1993. A team of researchers canvas courts across the country in search of the most compelling, unique and entertaining cases. The litigants all agree to have their disputes settled on “The People’s Court.” The decisions, based on current law, are final and binding. Judge Wapner’s original “The People’s Court” ran from September 1981 before being cancelled in June of 1993. In 1997, the show was resurrected and production was moved to New York City. The first judge on the bench was former NYC mayor, Ed Koch. Two years later, Jerry Sheindlin, husband of Judge Judy, took over the courtroom. In 2001 Judge Marilyn Milian took over the bench and is still dispensing justice on the Emmy award winning program. In 2012 the show moved the studio to its current location in Stamford, Connecticut.
