Judge Glenda Hatchett presided over her self-titled courtroom show from 2000-2008. Now, she returns to the medium with "The Verdict." In the half-hour series, the Atlanta native and former juvenile-court judge rules over small-claims cases brought in front of her. Hatchett's courtroom isn't just about finding someone guilty, though. She also uses her experience dealing with young people and her tough-love approach to help send a message to out-of-control juvenile offenders to try to set them on the right track in their lives.
