Former TV judge Joe Brown was dragged from a Memphis juvenile court hearing on Monday after the presiding magistrate found him in contempt for inciting the courtroom crowd.
Brown reportedly worked the courtroom into a froth as he questioned the authority of the magistrate while he was there representing a client in a child support case.
'He all but had that courtroom in a riot,' said Juvenile Court Chief Magistrate Dan Michael.
According to WREG, the fight was sparked after Brown was told there was no record of the case he was there to plead.
In audio taken during the heated exchange, Brown becomes progressively angrier as the magistrate schedules a court date in April for his client.
'He then began a diatribe against Mr. Horne and the authority of the court,' Michael said.
'You want to get in to this, let's get into this, this sorry operation needs to stop!' Brown yells at the magistrate in audio taken from the scene.
Horne had Brown removed and gave him a day in jail, but Brown began to scream ever louder as he was dragged away and it won him four more days.
