In court on Monday, according to the New York Post, Teresa and her husband Joe Giudice tried to convince a Newark federal bankruptcy judge to stop the planned auction of the contents of their home on Aug. 22.
Teresa and her hubby's lawyer, James Kridel, had to try and explain the $60,000 shopping to Judge Morris Stern.
The spending was outlined in a court document filed with receipts and Kirden said he knew the documents showed "a dilemma" and could be viewed by the judge as "conspicuous consumption."
