Mervin Monroe - Judge Snyder

Judge Snyder

Judge Roy Snyder, voiced by Harry Shearer, is a Springfield judge known for his lenient punishments and somewhat unorthodox rulings (as in the episode "Sweets and Sour Marge," when he bans sugar from Springfield). The character was originally named "Judge Moulton", but show runners Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein did not know that, and called him "Snyder". His appearance is modeled on Robert Bork. Snyder's skin color has gone back and forth between yellow and brown repeatedly throughout the series.

Famous quotes containing the words judge and/or snyder:

    I enclose to you a copy of the declaration of independence as agreed to by the House, and also, as originally framed. You will judge whether it is the better or worse for the Critics.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    These boys who love their mother
    who loves men, who passes on
    her sons to other women;

    The cloud across the sky. The windy pines.
    the trickle gurgle in the swampy meadow

    this is our body.
    —Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
