Through the perspective of newly-minted Justice Joe Novelli (Joe Mantegna – Criminal Minds, The Godfather: Part III) this gripping one-hour drama takes an unprecedented look at the Supreme Court as its members grapple with headline issues while weighing in against each other on them. As the High Court continually makes history with their ground-breaking cases, a quartet of young clerks working for Justice Novelli and Chief Justice Thomas Brankin (James Garner – The Rockford Files, The Notebook) makes their own way – trying to have their voices heard with their own opinions, and sometimes going to extreme measures to prove them.
