JUDGE M.E. "GENE" NICHOLS

Justice of the Peace - Caddo Parish, Ward 3

The judicial system begins with The Justice of the Peace and Constables. These elected officials have a $5,000.00 jurisdiction limit and ease the caseloads from area district courts. Each Justice of the Peace Court is set within their venue which the boundary lines are controlled by wards. All 64 parishes within our great state of Louisiana have Justice of the Peace Courts to handle minor claims (suits), evictions, disputes and the most recent litter violations.
