Last Shot with Judge Gunn is an American reality-based nontraditional court show that debuted in syndication on September 26, 2011.
On May 1, 2013, Last Shot with Judge Gunn had again been nominated for the "Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program" Daytime Emmy Award, but did not win the second time around.
[1] The drug court series features former Washington County, Arkansas, Circuit Judge Mary Ann Gunn offering people who had been convicted of various drug offenses and minor acts an alternative to prison, and hopefully, a "Last Shot" at redeeming their lives.
The concept was based on a local television program that she instituted when she was on the bench in 2006, and utilizes the Washington County Courthouse in Fayetteville for the tapings on Saturdays.
[2] However at the same time, Gunn's concept has been criticized in legal circles, which had been controversial during her tenure and since her resignation from the bench.
