Jacob Green is a lawyer who has served his clients well for over 50 years. Now he finds himself in a situation where he is defending a young man accused of sexual assault. He has no luck in finding a defense and begins to question his ability. Had he tried one case too many? Would Emmanuel Gutierrez go to prison for decades because Jacob had passed his prime? This question is answered as Jacob Greens years of experience are tested in a case involving a strange course of events. A truly interesting story of an older lawyers last trial.
