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:
“Good marriages are built on respectful disagreement and back-and-forth cooperation. We learn to cue each other, fill in for each other, forgive each other’s fumbles, celebrate small victories. We revel in the realization that we’re working on something bigger than both of us, and that parenthood is not only incredibly challenging but also incredibly enriching.”
—Susan Lapinski (20th century)
“Our civility, England determines the style of, inasmuch as England is the strongest of the family of existing nations, and as we are the expansion of that people. It is that of a trading nation; it is a shopkeeping civility. The English lord is a retired shopkeeper, and has the prejudices and timidities of that profession.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
