> [JSON][Python] Json loader fails on example in documentation.
> -------------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: ARROW-7226
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7226
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Python
>            Reporter: Rinke Hoekstra
>            Priority: Major
>
> I was just trying this with the example found in the pyarrow docs at 
> [http://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/json.html]
> The documented example does not work. Is this related to this issue, or is it 
> another matter?
> It says to load the following JSON file:
> {{{"a": [1, 2], "b": {"c": true, "d": "1991-02-03"}}}}
>  {{{"a": [3, 4, 5], "b": {"c": false, "d": "2019-04-01"}}}}
> I fixed this to make it valid JSON (It is valid [JSON 
> Lines|[http://jsonlines.org/]], but that's another issue):
> {{[{"a": [1, 2], "b": {"c": true, "d": "1991-02-03"}},}}
>  {{{"a": [3, 4, 5], "b": {"c": false, "d": "2019-04-01"}}]}}
> Then reading the JSON from a file called `my_data.json`:
> {{from pyarrow import json}}
>  {{table = json.read_json("my_data.json")}}
> Gives the following error:
> {code:java}
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------}}
>  ArrowInvalid Traceback (most recent call last)
