A.D.A. Serena Southerlyn (Elisabeth Rohm) courageously puts her life on the line, and may be disbarred as a consequence. It all begins during a hostage crisis, in which a suspected murderer agrees to release his captive if he is allowed to speak to an attorney. Serena volunteers for this dangerous assignment, and in the course of events she is forced to make statements that might block prosecution of the perpetrator. As a result, she is subjected to the dreaded "Disciplinary Rule 1-102," which may very well cost Southerlyn her license to practice law.
