Yes, the Litigants on court shows like The Peoples Court are paid for their appearance. In the ending credits of the show there is usually a message reading some like "Both the plaintiff and the defendant have been paid from a fund for their appearance. The amount, if any, awarded in the case, is deducted from this fund, and the remainder is divided equally between both litigants. The amount of the fund is dependent on the size of the judgement." In advance of the taping the litigants are given a packet of information detailing all of this.

Why is Judge Judy so harsh?
In part, she tries to run her TV show the way a real court would operate; testimony must be direct and in response to questions. This is far more strict (and realistic) than some other court shows on television, which permit litigants to tell long stories containing lots of irrelevant, unprovable details, slander and doubletalk. Second, she uses intimidation as a tactic to get litigants to perjure themselves. Once she catches them in their own lies, she can make a ruling without having to dig into a lot of details. Finally, she really has little patience for fools, and none at all for crooks. In many cases, she has a pretty good idea of what the litigants were trying to do, by reading their complaints and police reports, before hearing their testimony. She has seen just about everything in her career and she understands human motivation, so she can tell if one or both of the litigants got into their situation by trying to do something illegal or underhanded. She will usually question individuals like that aggressively from the outset.

Are sister wives compensated for tv shows?
Not necessarily. When TLC pays the families that star in their reality shows, they just write out one check and hand it to the head of the household. In this case, that check is made out to Kody Brown. Kody can then divide the money however he chooses, whether that be equally dividing the money four ways and handing it to each wife, dividing the money based on the number of children and handing it out to the wives, depositing it into one shared bank account and giving everyone access to it, or dividing it into bank accounts for the kids.

How much do litigants get paid on television court shows?
I would really like to see the answer to this question. I have seen it posed several times in different places, but there are no answers. My guess is that part of the papers signed by the litigants and participants include not divulging what the payment is. I also guess that since they take these cases from ones filed in actual small claims courts from across the county, it can not be so much that anyone makes money. If it was a "money maker," the court systems would be flooded with even more frivolous lawsuits and I'll bet they would put a stop to it. (or I would hope presume would have enough clout to stop it!) The best way to know would be if someone would actually post who has been on any of these shows, but of course, maybe they can't say.
