From 1983 to 1987, author Mark Dunn worked as a court clerk for a justice of the peace in Travis County, Texas, where, he says, \u201CI learned more about human nature . . . than I could have learned in any other job I might have taken up as a bushy-tailed kid from Tennessee.\u201D Based on interviews with 200 justices of the peace from all parts of Texas, Texas People\u2019s Court promises to take readers on a tour of what it means to be a Texas justice of the peace: an experience that is by turns hilarious, sobering, heart-wrenching, and, from one end to the other, fascinating.Here in the Texas justice court, wrongs can be righted and lives changed in profound ways. A priceless family necklace might finally be restored to the rightful owner; an occupational driver\u2019s license fortuitously granted.
