The Court of Human Relations is an American old-time radio human-interest program, pioneering the popular judicial genre that would later transform into televised entertainment. It was broadcast on NBC, CBS, and Mutual at various times, beginning January 1, 1934, and ending January 1, 1939. Sometimes referred to as True Story Court of Human Relations, not only was it radio's first courtroom series, but it was "one of the first sponsored programs ever carried on CBS."
