Marriages and Family
In 1964 Sheindlin married Ronald Levy, who later became a prosecutor in juvenile court; they moved together to New York and had two children. The couple divorced in 1976 after 12 years of marriage.
In 1977 she married Jerry Sheindlin, also a judge and also a divorcé. They divorced in 1990, partially as a result of the stress and struggles that Judith incurred after her father's death that same year. They remarried the following year. The Sheindlins have five children – Gregory, Jamie, Adam, Jonothan and Nicole – and 12 grandchildren.

Famous quotes containing the words marriages and/or family:
“Women have entered the work force . . . partly to express their feelings of self-worth . . . partly because today many families would not survive without two incomes, partly because they are not at all sure their marriages will last. The day of the husband as permanent meal-ticket is over, a fact most women recognize, however they feel about “women’s liberation.””
—Robert Neelly Bellah (20th century)
“English people apparently queue up as a sort of hobby. A family man might pass a mild autumn evening by taking the wife and kids to stand in the cinema queue for a while and then leading them over for a few minutes in the sweetshop queue and then, as a special treat for the kids, saying “Perhaps we’ve time to have a look at the Number Thirty-One bus queue before we turn in.””
—Calvin Trillin (b. 1940)
