    In this special episode we bring you the first ever edition of Objection! The Relitigated Game Show.

    3 of our justices, Sarah, Adam, and Preston, compete for points to see who will be crowned the official Chief Justice of Relitigated and earn the commemorative gavel.

    Who will be victorious and crowned the official Chief Justice of Relitigated?
