Short description
Eddie Dodd is a burnt out former civil rights lawyer who now specializes in defending drug dealers. Roger Baron, newly graduated from law school, has followed Eddie's great cases and now wants to learn at his feet. With Roger's idealistic prodding, Eddie reluctantly takes on a case of a young Korean man who, according to his mother, has been in jail for eight years for a murder he didn't commit.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The character of Eddie Dodd was based on the famous lawyer Tony Serra.
  • The character played by Yuji Okumoto is based on an American of Korean descent named Chol Soo Lee (1952-2014), who served almost 10 years for a murder he did not commit.
