No, she is not. In the original sculpture of Themis (or Justitia), now known as Lady Justice, she did not have anything under her feet other than ground. The book and snake came later.
The book is meant to be a representation for law books. Between the book and her foot, is a snake. The snake reminds us that we should tread lightly when meting out justice.
