Cyrus Garza (Jimmy Smits) is the most conservative and the deciding vote in a 5-4 US Supreme Court. He is a disappointment to his late social justice father. To everyone's surprise, he decides to give a death row inmate reprieve from his execution. He promptly resigns and leads a team to exonerate the man.
I don't really like Garza despite Jimmy Smits' natural charisma. He is supposed to be conservative. The show leans liberal and it can't help but be political. It is hitting hot button issues. The opening premise is rather out there and doesn't make sense. It would make more sense if he's not a Supreme Court Judge. With such a weird start, the show never recovers and was canceled after only four episodes. There are eight in total.
