MCKINNEY (AP) - The docket is bare but the day is full for a North Texas justice of the peace as he faces an onslaught of brides and grooms determined to exchange vows on 12/12/12.

Paul Raleeh is justice of the peace for Precinct 1 of Collin County, where some of the fastest-growing northern suburbs of Dallas are situated.

County spokesman Tim Wyatt says Raleeh has been overwhelmed with a wave of requests to preside over weddings.

Raleeh usually marries four to five couples a week. For Wednesday, December 12, 2012, Wyatt says Raleeh has 30 scheduled for that day alone.
