<p>In a straight-out-of-sitcom scene, a judge in Colombia was suspended for three months for allegedly smoking in bed and appearing half-naked during a virtual hearing. The woman identified to be Judge Vivian Polania violated multiple administrative regulations, Spanish news outlet Infobae reported. The judge, however, denied being half-naked in a statement that she gave later.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The 34-year-old was spotted on her bed half-naked as she puffed on a cigarette during one of her court hearings. A Twitter user shared a video in which judge Vivian Polania can be seen holding a cigarette. "In a video circulating on WhatsApp, Judge Vivian Polanía (she works at the Cúcuta Palace of Justice) is seen attending a judicial proceeding in her bed, half-naked and smoking. I don't know if this could lead to any sanction, but at least the scandal is already served," the user wrote.&nbsp;</p>

<p>A snippet of the virtual hearing went viral on the internet, following which Judicial Disciplinary Commission in Norte de Santander launched a quick investigation on the matter. The committee said that Judge Vivian Polania had 'sleepy eyes' and was reporting to the court from her bed in a 'deplorable' state.&nbsp;</p>
