Lawyer Gloria Allred will star in Entertainment Studios' latest court show, We the People with Gloria Allred, the company said Tuesday (Jan. 25).

The show is targeted for a fall 2011 launch on Entertainment Studios' six high-definition cable networks, which are carried by Verizon FiOS, and in broadcast syndication. We the People will join ES' other court show, America's Court with Judge Ross, which has been averaging a 0.4 live plus same day household rating in national syndication.
