Season 2

(1996)

Overview

In Season 2, Jimmy Wyler has taken over from Ted Hoffman. Unlike the first season, which followed one case in detail throughout the entire season, this time round there are a string of new cases for the legal team - including a police officer who has been accused of brutality, and the murder of the governor of California.
