Yes. You don't have to be read your Miranda simply because you are arrested.

The arresting officer did not have to read you your miranda rights. But the judge most certainly had to. And when the judge does so, they always get you to sign something stating that your rights were read to you.

That is just not true. Judges never have to read Miranda rights and never do. Miranda warnings must be given before a custodial interrogation. Judges never interrogate suspects.

Yes, judges DO read miranda rights....FREQUENTLY. It was the judge that I met with this past Sunday morning that read me my miranda rights, NOT the arresting officer.
