Meaning?

Hi,

What is the meaning of "Now that's the end of it! Life is short." in the following text? Has the judge said this when he sentenced the lawyers or has he said that in another occasion? Please note that my latter question is of grammatical nature and relates to "would slap".

Judge Skinner had once sentenced two lawyers to a seminar on trial practice for filing poorly researched and groundless motions. He would slap his hand with resounding thwack on his bench and say in a menacing voice, "Now that's the end of it! Life is short."

Thanks
