## Production

On April 18, 2023, it was announced that Tribunal Justice would premiere on June 9, 2023, in the US, UK, Germany, and Austria. The show was created and is executive produced by Judge Judy Sheindlin (of Judge Judy and Judy Justice), who had previously created the similarly formatted Hot Bench for the syndication market; Sheindlin was inspired by witnessing an Irish three-judge tribunal while on vacation in creating both shows. The titular tribunal features former New York Supreme Court justice Patricia DiMango, Los Angeles civil litigator Tanya Acker, and former New York district attorney Adam Levy (Sheindlin's son), and bailiffs Petri Hawkins Byrd and Cassandra Britt.
