La corte del pueblo (translated The People's Court) is a Spanish-language reality court show that originally aired on KWHY-TV in Los Angeles but later moved to Telemundo. The show was presided over by Cristina Pérez in its first season. When the show moved to Telemundo, Los Angeles-based lawyer Manuel Franco took over the bench.[1] The show ran for five seasons starting in 1999 and ending its run in 2005, when Franco left the show due to a conflict with Telemundo regarding his views on the Latin American community.[2]
