Judge Larry Seidlin Is One Step Closer To Making A Mockery Of The Legal Profession
— Mon, Apr 2, 2007 —
Say, remember Larry Seidlin, the zany, highly emotional and occasionally sexist Florida circuit judge who theatrically (and through intermittent tears) awarded custody of Anna Nicole Smith's body to her infant daughter, Dannielynn?
Well, looks like he's one step closer to doing what he does best: delivering bizarre, tear-streaked verdicts that demonstrate a complete and utter lack of jurisprudence, legal savvy or coherent thought...all in the name of good television.
Seidlin, who was reportedly "inundated with at least 200 phone inquiries from TV recruiters" (including CBS) is now said to be squeezing in a barrage of production meetings on the west coast.
The objective?
To become the next generation's Judge Wapner (except with more psychotic rants!) by signing with whichever network will best compensate him for what legal experts have denounced as either "stream-of consciousness judgeship...or a carefully orchestrated nervous breakdown."
And something tells us a multi-year contract with one of the top networks may be just what Larry "Waterworks" Seidlin needs to turn that frown upside down.
