The dispute that arose when an Aurora schoolgirl lost her beloved pink iPod after loaning it to a friend is due in court today in DuPage County.

But a California judge who is watched by millions of television viewers may end up having the final word.

Both sides tentatively agreed to fight it out on the “Judge Judy” show, which airs weekdays on WBBM-TV, Channel 2.

The national exposure is the latest twist to an overblown teenage quarrel that generated a lawsuit, a media frenzy and thousands of Internet forum opinions.
