Judge Judy will return the controversial dishes

Judge Judy Sheindlin has decided to return the controversial set of china that she had purchased from her producer Randy Douthit.

TMZ reports that earlier this week, Douthit’s bitter ex-wife, Patric Jones, has been looking to press charges against Judge Judy once she had learned that Judge Judy had purchased expensive china for $50,000 from Douthit. Jones believes that the china is worth over $500,000 and is looking to get her property back.

"This very unpleasant lady doesn't give a hoot about dishes. She cares about pressuring her ex-husband and the way to do that is to attempt to embarrass me," said Judge Judy, "She and her attorney want a circus, and I refuse to be a further participant in their drama,” reported TV Guide.

Apparently, Judge Judy will not be refunded for her $50,000 purchase.

Douthit has also made a statement-

"The dishes and silverware that Ms. Jones describes as community property are being sent to me. I am truly sorry that Judge Judy Sheindlin was brought into this domestic dispute. She relied on my statement to her that the court had authorized the sale,” he said.
