I don't know this story. The only one I can find with that title is a Russian fairy tale, retold in a 1931 book which is under copyright so not available for free on line.
You can figure this out, though. Re-read the story and look for hints about the reason the judge uses a riddle, then cite those details in your answer. Careful reading will let you find the answer.
