Judge Joe Brown just got a taste of his own medicine -- the former TV judge was arrested after allegedly blowing a gasket at a Memphis juvenile court ... TMZ has confirmed.
Brown showed up to court Monday to represent someone in a child support case -- but was turned away by court staff, who informed Brown they had no record of the case in question.
Brown reportedly lost it ... becoming verbally abusive and was warned several times to quiet down.
The previous judge from Divorce Court should've done this for promo ages ago, but she's probably busy waiting for Tyler Perry to call about the next Madea movie...
