If a judge is called ‘corrupt’ by a defendant outside court in front of the media, or if something more unambiguously libelous is said, can the judge sue the defendant?

    What if the judge loses the libel case? The defendant could then argue the “unfounded” libel charge was symptomatic of a preexisting bias.

      Then you should look for stronger insults LOL

      No. There is nothing to it. Real lawyers and judges have heard it before, and better.
