When something belongs to more than one person you would write "peoples'". The plural form of person is people, and when people own something it looks like this: "peoples' court". This goes with other forms of plural ownership as well. Before the "s" for single ownership, and after the "s" for plural ownership.

People is the plural form for person. Person being one human being. When many people own something, the correct phrase to use would be "the object is owned by many people" or "many people own the object. " You would not use the words peoples' or people's since these words would be incorrect.
