Vor allem Kleindealer, Steuersünder und Wallstreet-Gauner sitzen dort ihre Strafe ab, außerdem drei ehemals angesehene Richter. Als "Bruderschaft" treten letztere auf und machen die Gefängnisbibliothek kurzerhand zu ihrem neuen Arbeitsplatz. Dort übernehmen sie - selbstverständlich gegen Bezahlung - Rechtsangelegenheiten von Mitinsassen und sitzen regelmäßig zu Gericht über kleinere Verstöße innerhalb der Gefängnismauern.§Weniger harmlos...

Their specialties, so to speak, are quickie divorces and DUIs, with the occasional jackpot of an actual car wreck thrown in. After twenty plus years together, Oscar Finley and Wally Figg bicker like an old married couple but somehow continue to...
