Episode Detail: Snakes in the Grass - The Court
The court rules on a case involving a Federal agent who accidentally shot a state agent, and Nolan is assigned to write the majority opinion, which means all-nighters for the clerks. Meanwhile, Harlan (Craig Bierko) tricks a student librarian into giving him access to the papers of Nolan's late predecessor, Christina Flynn. That opens a can of worms, and so might the appearance in Washington of Nolan's black-sheep brother (Xander Berkeley).
