Judge Your Coffee in Coffee Circuit Court?
In Alabama.
Unfortunately, the reality is quite boring—it's just the court in Coffee County. (There's also one in Coffee County, Tennessee, but that's usually called the Coffee County Circuit Court.) The county is apparently named after one John Coffee, and the surname supposedly comes from "the old Gaelic O'Cobhthaigh," which sounds more like coughing than coffee to me.
