Five Point Plan -- Goal #5 by Democratic Candidate Audrie Lawton for Harris County Justice of the Peace, Precinct 7, Place 2


AUDRIE'S FIFTH GOAL: Audrie Lawton has expressed a sincere desire to work with the Constable’s office to promote safety in the community for residents who live, work, and play in Precinct 7, Place 2. So please don't forget that early voting will begin on Tuesday, February 20, 2018, and end on Friday, March 2, 2018. Election day voting will take place on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, for the Democratic Primary.


Audrie Lawton (far left), Cheryl Elliott Thornton, Sharon M. Burney, and Ray B. Shackelford are the four Democratic candidates running for Harris County Justice of the Peace for Precinct 7, Place 2 in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Party Primary. Attorney Audrie Lawton is asking for the vote, prayers, and support of every Precinct 7, Place 2 registered voter. You can help Audrie Lawton to “BRING BACK THE PEOPLE’S COURT” by texting “Vote for Audrie” to 31996 anytime, day or night.




HBC MAGAZINE© REPORTS

At first glance, it’s a little difficult to pinpoint a clear frontrunner in the race for Harris County Justice of the Peace for Precinct 7, Place 2. After all, you have three capable African American female attorneys seeking to replace the honorable Judge Zinetta Burney – who has decided to lay down her gavel. However, in a surprise move, the honorable Judge Zinetta Burney has for some reason, anointed her daughter Sharon Burney her heir apparent to the throne -- so to speak. Will Judge Burney's attempt to pass down this highly-coveted judicial post as some sort of heirship work? Well, we'll all have to wait until Tuesday, March 6, 2018, to find out the answer to this question. Early voting will begin on Tuesday, February 20, 2018, and end on Friday, March 2, 2018, for this race -- which we expect to be highly competitive!



Then you have attorney Cheryl Elliott Thornton who has decided to make another run for Justice of the Peace – after trying unsuccessfully to unseat embattled Harris County Justice of the Peace for Precinct 7, Place 1 (Hilary Green) back in 2016. “Even with a loss on her record, Cheryl Elliott Thornton has a legitimate shot at the Harris County Justice of the Peace for Precinct 7, Place 2 seat on Tuesday, March 6, 2018,” says Aubrey R. Taylor, publisher of Houston Business Connections Magazine©. “She proved her legitimacy back on Tuesday, March 1, 2016, when she emerged as the second place finisher in a stellar field of eight viable candidates to force a runoff with Judge Hilary Green,” he explains. However, the fact that she didn’t even come close to beating Judge Hilary Green in the Tuesday, May 24, 2016, Democratic Party Primary Runoff Election doesn’t bode well for her coming into the race for Precinct 7, Place 2,” says Taylor. “But I wouldn’t sleep on Cheryl Elliott Thornton in 2018 -- after all, she’s already proven that she can draw over 5,000 votes in a field much larger than the one currently vying to replace Judge Zinetta Burney – who is retiring.”



Ray B. Shackelford, the only male candidate running for Harris County Justice of the Peace for Precinct 7, Place 2 is not an attorney – but you don’t have to hold a law degree to serve as a Justice of the Peace in Harris County, Texas. A Justice of the Peace, in most cases, will usually only deal with minor civil and criminal matters. The candidate, however, must be a U.S. citizen and at least 18-years of age – thus Shackelford is qualified to be in this race.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS TO RUN FOR JP IN THE STATE OF TEXAS

A candidate running for Justice of the Peace in Texas must have been a Texas resident for one year, and a resident of the precinct for which they’re running for at least six months prior to running. These judges serve four-year terms – in case you’re wondering. And a Justice of the Peace can earn well over 100,000 dollars a year – and has very good benefits.



Attorney Audrie Lawton is definitely the candidate to watch in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Primary race for Justice of the Peace for Precinct 7, Place 2. “Lawton has been a licensed attorney in the State of Texas for over 15-years,” says Taylor. “She comes to the fight for the Precinct 7, Place 2 bench with unmatched credentials, and valuable experience, having tried well-over 100 cases in her career – thus far,” explains Taylor. “Her unique qualifications has her poised, ready, and prepared to take-the-gavel from the Honorable Judge Zinetta Burney, and do a very fine job,” says Taylor. “After all, as a lawyer, she’s represented clients on both sides in a court of law – so, she appears to have a very good grasp, and a keen understanding of the issues faced by both Plaintiffs and Defendants when they walk into a courtroom.”


One of Audrie’s favorite quotes is by Robin S. Sharma, which states, “Leadership is not about a title or a designation. It’s about impact, influence, and inspiration. Impact involves getting results, influence is about spreading the passion you have for your work.” And that’s exactly what Lawton plans to do when elected by the people of Precinct 7, Place 2. According to Audrie, she’s seeking to take this bench because she believes that she’s qualified to do so. And more than that, she believes that the time has definitely come for new leadership. “I want to Bring Back the People’s Court,” she says. “That means opening up the courthouse doors to the community in which it serves. It also means providing services, such as educational training, social services, and resources to Pro Se litigants who cannot afford legal representation. My goal is to partner with organizations in our community to provide additional services to those in need,” she recently told Houston Business Connections Magazine© shortly before the signing deadline to get her name on the 2018 Democratic Party Primary ballot in Harris County, Texas. “Audrie Lawton has a future, and a plan that could definitely help the Precinct 7, Place 2 courtroom run more efficiently,” explains Taylor. Below are five ways, in which she plans to accomplish her aforementioned goals:

FIVE-POINT PLAN - GOAL #1


AUDRIE'S FIRST GOAL: Audrie Lawton plans to bring the Harris County Justice of the Peace, Precinct 7, Place 2 court up to speed by enhancing courthouse technology by creating a ”Courthouse App”. An “App” is an application program designated to perform a group of coordinated functions, tasks, or activities for the benefit of users.

FIVE-POINT PLAN - GOAL #2


AUDRIE'S SECOND GOAL: Audrie Lawton plans to hold monthly night court, and perhaps even weekend court to better work with the schedules of the working-class residents of Precinct 7, Place 2.

FIVE-POINT PLAN - GOAL #3


AUDRIE'S THIRD GOAL: Audrie Lawton plans to establish an onsite resource center for Pro Se Litigants. In case you are not familiar with the term, Pro Se is simply a Latin phrase meaning “for oneself” or “on one’s own behalf”. This very much needed resource is important because many of the defendants and plaintiffs involved in civil matters at the Harris County Justice of the Peace, Precinct 7, Place 2 court can’t afford legal representation.

FIVE-POINT PLAN - GOAL #4


AUDRIE'S FOURTH GOAL: Audrie Lawton also has plans to open up the courthouse doors and allow organizations and professionals to host educational seminars onsite at the court itself, which is centrally located in Palm Center at 5300 Griggs Rd., in Houston, Texas 77021.

FIVE-POINT PLAN - GOAL #5


AUDRIE'S FIFTH GOAL: Audrie Lawton has also expressed a sincere desire to work with the Constable’s office to promote safety in the community for residents who live, work, and play in Precinct 7, Place 2.
