* The non-canon ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' episode "And Justice For All" sees Goliath being framed for a jewelry heist and then willingly undergoing the judicial process in order to set a precedent for gargoyles being accepted as equals under human law.

** Season 8's "The Jury," where Urkel and Carl ended up serving on the same jury for David Hayes, a janitor at a jewelry store accused of stealing the store's merchandise.

The matter is held in Vanderbilt's student court. [[spoiler:In the end, Laura exposes Thornhill as the real culprit using a blacklight to determine that he tampered with Urkel's science project with explosive chemicals; when exposed, Thornhill admits that he did it because he believed that Urkel didn't deserve to win first prize at the science fair.
