Oh, I was right the first time. Yay me (I wasn't really paying attention in the first episode). I sort of assumed he had the money and that's how him and Randy could afford to go and do all the other stuff from there on in, but it's not really been mentioned again that I've noticed.

It was mentioned a fair bit in the first few episodes, mainly because Joy (who is my favourite character in it) kept trying to figure out ways to get the money off him. But now even she's in on the karma thing.

what about nigel colcord and all rebecca's other failed romances with yuppies; frasier & lilith; woody's girlfriend; diane and her family?

Night Court were upper-middle class, weren't they? At least the two main lawyers (I think my first sexual feelings might have been Marky/ie/whatever Post-directed) and the judge had to be reasonably well-off.

Lawyers working in the district attorney's office and public defenders actually don't make a lot of money at all.

Also: Bull, Marsha Warfield's character and the other female bailiffs, Art the janitor(bruno kirby), John Astin as the judge's slighty cracked father

I know PDs and low-level DAs aren't raking it in, but I'm just thinking relative to Roseanne or Mama's Family or Good Times, the three big characters in Night Court were relatively high up the socioeconomic chain.
