When you are speaking, the judge is usually addressed as "Your Honor" (As in, "Your Honor, my name is _____ and I'm the defendant and representing myself"). Less common is the Title, "Judge" followed by the last name (This assumes you can correctly pronounce it), such as "Judge Hardy, may I ask the Court (never YOU) a question?"

If you are writing, the judge is usually referred to as "The Honorable ___(First, Middle Initial, Last Name) _____".
