Texas Justice is a syndicated American arbitration-based reality court show.

In the program, cases were run by former Houston attorney Larry Joe Doherty,[1] and the program was recorded at the studios of Fox station KRIV (Channel 26) in Houston, Texas.

The series lasted for 5 seasons in syndication from March 26, 2001[2] until May 20, 2005.[3] The show was canceled in September 2005. Living up to the court show's title, the program's look, music and style evoked a country rural presence and cowboy atmosphere. To boot, Doherty had an innate country drawl and a Walker, Texas Ranger-like aura about him.

The show was replaced by Judge Alex, which also taped at KRIV for its first 5 seasons. Judge Alex aired from September 12, 2005 – May 21, 2014.

Reruns of the show have aired on CMT, Ion Television, and El Rey Network as well as on the Nosey app during the 2018-19 season.
