Note from asker:
Hi Miss Kraus, Thanks for your suggestion. The name of the person is not really Miguel Feliciano. I use a different name to protect my client's confidentiality. I think it must be different Miguel Feliciano. Is your suggestion appropriate for American English? Please let me know. |

: and Corte??// A Justice of the Peace is an individual. the expression, without the word "Court", cannot be a Court

I found no reference whatsoever confirming that Court is used in this context. Justice of the Peace stands for this type of court. Besides, the links I´ve come across only use this term for a court (it´s´the office of judges of peace (Friedensrichter ! )
