Justice of the Peace Precinct 2 Place 2, Harris County
Judge Dolores Lozano made history in November 2022 as the first woman and minority elected to serve as Harris County Justice of the Peace for Precinct 2, Place 2. Her jurisdiction encompasses key areas of the Greater Southeast Houston region, including Houston, South Houston, Galena Park, Jacinto City, Pasadena, Pearland, and Friendswood. Born and raised in Southeast Houston, Judge Lozano has dedicated her life to breaking barriers, serving her community, and empowering the next generation of leaders.
A proud first-generation college graduate, Judge Lozano earned her bachelor’s degree from Baylor University.
She later transitioned into sports and entertainment, contributing to high profile events such as Super Bowl LI, NCAA Final Four tournaments, and NBA All-Star games. Her passion for social impact led her to co-launch Impact Hub Houston in 2018, an organization focused on addressing systematic inequities and empowering communities through innovative solutions.
In her role as Justice of the Peace, Judge Lozano presides over cases including evictions, small claims, traffic violations, and truancy. Her commitment to fostering justice and dignity drives her to continually innovate within her courtroom. In 2024, she received the Texas Association of Counties Best Practice Award and the Texas Housers Award for launching an Eviction Diversion Initiative, a program designed to combat homelessness by educating landlords and tenants while providing critical resources to foster win-win solutions.
Beyond the courtroom, Judge Lozano remains deeply committed to education and leadership. She serves as Assistant Secretary of the KIPP Texas Board of Directors, advocating for equitable opportunities for students across the state. She is also an active member of the Junior League of Houston and a fellow of prestigious programs such as the Aspen Institute Ideas Scholars, Management and leadership for Tomorrow, and Latinos for Education.
Judge Lozano’s journey is a testament to resilience, determination, and transformative power of community.

This tab lists judge-and-division rules only, and this judge's division publishes its practice at the county, region, and statewide layers instead — 184 verified requirements may apply across those layers. The Full Premium Report assembles every one of them, cited.
See all 184 in the Full Premium Report →No judge-level deadline on record runs shorter than a statewide deadline with the same trigger. The sentinel compares quoted timing across every published rule scoped to this judge on each visit — a clean result today is re-earned tomorrow.
No judge-scoped deadlines on this tab. Deadlines are extracted only when the source rule text states them — we never infer or calculate dates the rule does not explicitly contain. 9 rule deadlines apply in this courtroom across all layers — assembled with citations in the Full Premium Report.
Timing shown here is quoted from the rule text. Compute your actual date against the court's calendar and the rule itself — not legal advice.
No verified ruling summary yet. BenchPath generates ruling summaries from opinion and docket corpora (CourtListener where covered) and publishes them only after human review — fabricated judicial analytics are exactly what this platform refuses to ship.
The attributed-opinion corpus covers Florida's and California's appellate decisions today; a Texas opinion corpus is a separate build. Absence here is a coverage statement, never evidence about this judge.
