Judge Judy Sheindlin is keeping her court in session.

The 72-year-old daytime TV queen is extending her CBS contract on "Judge Judy" through 2020 - that's right, we're getting another five years of the sassy judge.

With a sarcastic personality, Judy has made this show a success and is one of the highest paid television personalities, with a reported $47 million a year salary. After 19 seasons, "Judge Judy" continues to be number one in syndication, and so ETonline takes a look at why she's worth $900,000 a day.
