Fox26Law: Lazy Justice of the Peace? - Houston weather, traffic, news | FOX 26 | MyFoxHouston

It's time for some Fox26Law. Our legal analyst, Chris Tritico, is here to answer your questions. Watch Chris every Tuesday and Thursday morning on FOX 26 Morning News in the 7 a.m. hour.

FROM LEE: Is there any "BAR" type organization for Justices of the Peace? I am super UNHAPPY with the obviously partisan decision of what appears to be a lazy justice of the peace. His court never did anything to satisfy the TOKEN judgment he awarded me. Thank you!

CHRIS TRITICO'S ANSWER: The Judicial Conduct Commission is where one files complaints against a judge, however, the judge is not responsible for collecting a judgment. Once you receive a judgment it is your responsibility to make efforts to collect that judgment. You need to get an abstract of Judgment. Upon receipt of the abstract you can then get a Writ of Sequestration to have the sheriff or constable pick up non exempt assets if there are any.
