Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Cowboy hero George O'Brien has his hands full with crooked land promoter Paul Everton in Prairie Law. Selling acres and acres of worthless land while promising to provide an unlimited water supply to his customers, Everton sparks off a range war between cattlemen and homesteaders. Working on behalf of the cattlemen, O'Brien brings an end to the feud and takes on Everton's many minions single-handed. Virginia Vale makes a return appearance from previous George O'Brien vehicles to play the requisite heroine. A standard entry, Prairie Law benefits from RKO Radio's usual topnotch production values.
