Synopsis

Judge Ross rules on a dispute over an heirloom engagement ring after a wedding is canceled. Neighbors Kelsey Ragsdale and Mike June (John A. Bauer) argue over damaged cocktail dresses which hostess Kelsey left for hours in a shared laundry drier. Mike is a hilarious curmudgeon as the "young folks" are ruining the vibe of the building he has rented in for 20 years. He was only trying to help by removing the dresses from the washer and placing into the drier. America's Court with Judge Ross is an American syndicated court show produced by Entertainment Studios (ES) featuring former Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Kevin A. Ross presiding over nontraditional/dramatized small claims court cases. Nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award in 2012 for Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program, the series currently films in Culver City, California. In 2009, it was announced that America's Court would launch in syndication. Aside from Access Hollywood Live, it is the only daytime program currently airing from the 2010-11 season of freshman shows. September 2020, the series was renewed for seven seasons through 2027. Season 13 officially began September 12, 2022. As with the other five ES court programs modeling its format, America's Court with Judge Ross can also be seen on the company's related Justice Central legal network. After 17 years in business, America's Court is the 19th program from Entertainment Studios. The company sells its national advertising time in daily and weekly blocks, and each block runs in every Entertainment Studios show. That block system allows the company to cume its ratings, selling national ads at a higher rate than if advertising was sold in each show individually. Allen says some 25 million people watch his shows each week. "We are the Wal-Mart of television," says Allen. "We produce our shows efficiently and we keep our costs down. In this economy, when people want efficiency, our advertising inventory is sold out. We're the value player."
