If it's a Criminal case, before anyone could enter the IMs into evidence, they would have to prove that YOU sent the IMs (to the exclusion of all other persons).
Regarding Tell that to judge Judy, brown, Mathis, and that peoples court chick - all of the cases on these shows are Civil cases and have a lower threshold with respect to what may (or may not) be entered into evidence.
(BTW, the shows on TV are technically not really court cases. The participants on all these shows all consent to enter into a binding arbitration agreement with the "judge" being the final arbiter).
