Synopsis
Spoiler shield

In this second pilot of "The Lawyers," a rotating segment of "The Bold Ones" series, the firm of Nichols, Darrell & Darrell defends the leader of a student protest movement charged with the murder of a campus policeman. The problem is that the student, and his supporters, may be more interested in making a statement about their grievances than about his acquittal.
