We finally have
a judge who's fair.

I don't know what I'd do
if we didn't have her.

I was wondering if Ms. Kansky
was gonna drop by.

Sara: He likes you!

I don't do cheer
during work hours.

If I have questions about
gaining another perspective,

might that be all right?
- Yes.

It might be weird,
us showing up together.

Two weeks ago, you kissed me
in front of all your friends.

But not the whole courthouse.

I haven't tried
a murder case in a while.

So? You're the best lawyer
I know, Amy.

Best lawyer in L.A.
is my son,

and he chooses
not to represent me.

Take responsibility
for your situation.

I didn't do anything.

I don't believe you.

Choi:
Do you remember Peter?

I do.

Yesterday you spoke
to your client Diego Fondo?

Present at that meeting
was Alex Domingues?

That conversation was recorded.
We used the recording

as probable cause
in multiple filings,

and we intend to use it
as evidence.Wait a second.

Paperwork is in process.And we wanted to give you
a heads up

as a courtesy.That conversation
was privileged.

The presence of Mr. Domingues
voided privilege.

Alex Domingues is part
of my defense team.

- If you an objection--
- Objection?

Even if the privilege
doesn't extend, which it does,

you put a bug in the courthouse
in a client meeting room?

Where there is no
expectation of privacy.

[ sighs ]
You are gonna regret this,

both of you.

Make your arguments in court,
Ms. Lopez. We're done here.

[ exhales ]
Not your monkey, Callan.

Emily: Alex Domingues was not
a third party.

Mr. Domingues is an expert
on L.A. gang culture

who was hired to assist me

in the preparation
of Diego's defense.

You hired him.
Did you sign a contract?

We had a verbal agreement.

Your Honor, without any
witnesses to this agreement--

He accepted payment.
Obviously, I am aware

of the third party rule,

and I would never
jeopardize my client.

If I thought for one second

that the District Attorney's
office

would put
surveillance equipment

in courthouse
meeting rooms, I--

Ms. Lopez, take a breath.

Ms. Kansky.

One moment.

[ spectators murmur ]

What is happening
in the gallery?

It's the defense bar.

They're lawyers.All of them?

Word has gotten out
the courthouse is bugged.

[ singsong ]
Trouble is brewing.

Okay. All right.
I got this.

Your Honor, if I may,
I would like to know

how the bug came to be
in the meeting room.

Fair question. Mr. Diaz?

Your Honor, with respect,

the focus of this
emergency hearing

is whether or not
the privilege--

I'm all right
with expanding the focus.

Let's talk about the bug.

The room had been employed

in a previous Perkins
operation

in which an undercover
posing as a prisoner

obtained information

from an actual prisoner
in custody.

Standard
law enforcement tool.

So you just accidentally
left the mic on

when I was meeting my client?

People vs. Jordan,1990.

There is no guaranteed right
to privacy

in attorney conference rooms.

In a courthouse?

This is a temple of justice.
It is a church.

Your Honor, the names obtained
in this recording

could have been used
to get my client immunity.

There was no plea deal
being discussed, Your Honor.

Mr. Diaz knew that.

By stealing that leverage
and making those arrests,

he has put my client's life
in mortal danger.

He has been moved
to solitary to protect him.

Stay on point, Ms. Lopez.

[ sighs ]

Diego Fondo is a soulful,
vulnerable young man

who was trying
to escape gang life.

Your Honor,
this is my field.

Gang members do not talk,
ever.

It is extraordinarily difficult
to get any traction.

These arrests
will save lives.

The means we used
to secure them

were used in the interest
of justice. It's that simple.

Your Honor,
if I could just--

I've heard enough.

I'll consider
these arguments carefully.

Court is in recess.[ gavel bangs ]

[ spectators murmur ]

So where were we?

- You solved your murder.
- I did.

Already?

The fact pattern matched
a previous fact pattern

from a cold case
10 years ago.

I have a personal database,
old case files,

articles, studies.
Research is big with me.

I like to be
organized and thorough.

Anyway...
so, Ms. Sherri Kansky,

may I take you to dinner?

I assume you heard
about the bugging.

Only 3 times
in the last 10 minutes.

Everyone is talking about it.

Not sure why no one's
talking about the victim,

but anyway--What is your opinion?

Of the bugging?
Is this a test?

If I get it right,
you'll go out with me?

- Mm-hmm.
- Okay.

Well, interesting.

I'm a cop. I'm in favor.

If I said anything
other than Perkins ops

are an indispensable tool,
you'd know I'm lying.

They're legal. A little
unusual to use in here,

and I wouldn't do it myself,
but...

But?

Legal.

Mm. Is that
your final answer?

Final answer.

I'll think about it.

[ mouth full ] If I were you,

I would look
at how Jordan,1972,

addressing prisoner-attorney
communication,

is frankly trumped
by People v. Jordan,

no relation, 1990,

regarding permissive monitoring
of conference rooms.

You need to ponder
at length.[ phone beeps ]

Whoop.
I have a hearing.

Oh, good. I mean...

Walk with me.Really? Okay.

Two more crucial points.

You wouldn't be trying

to influence my decision,
would you?

- I would not.
- Infect me

with your old, conservative,
white guy rationale.

Well, such as it is?
Hey, look,

you want to exclude
the recording,

alienate all of
L.A. County law enforcement,

set the course of justice
back 25 years,

that is your business.

But you are a referee here,
and there are rules.

Benner: Carmichael!

Judge Benner.

How is it that, once again,

the entire courthouse

is talking about your case?
You have a talent.

Robin's about to get
an offer.

A job offer in D.C.?
Is he going to take it?

I can't think about that
right now.

Because you have a small,
little prisoners' rights-

attorney-client-privilege
gang-murder question

you need to think about
instead.

It's a slow day.

The privilege piece
is almost straightforward.

Third party voids
privilege,

but is a gang expert
a member of the defense team

or a witness you call
to the stand?

Then there's
the sticky piece.

Sixth Amendment questions.

Surveillance creep.
It's everywhere.

Suddenly people are free
to parachute

into other people's lives

and watch and listen
anywhere.

Robin's colleagues knew a lot
about me, my decisions.

They're not bugging
your chambers, Carmichael.

Yet. There was an open mic
in a meeting room

in this courthouse
used for lawyers.

I'm sure as a prosecutor,
you've used--

I obtained Perkins warrants
for prisons

and placed undercover
informants in cells

that we then bugged
to get information,

but never in the courthouse
and not like this.

If it were up to me--Are you really gonna finish
that sentence, Lisa?

The question is, how do I
finish that sentence?

Well, you don't have
to rewrite the Constitution.

Not today.

[ door opens, closes ]

[ exhales deeply ]

I found the mic.
What? When?

After we talked. I went all
Jason Bourne on the room.

Did you rip it out
and throw it in the garbage?

- Uh, no.
- Did you yell into it

and tell whoever was listening
where they could put their--

Seriously, Luke,
you don't actually think

that should be allowed to--The law's pretty clear.

Oh, actually, it's not.
It's not a Perkins.

A Perkins is targeted.There's precedent.

Luke, you're gonna be
a lawyer.

This isn't just
a theoretical argument.

You're gonna have to--We don't have to
talk about it.

- Yeah, we do.
- Yeah, you do.

Let me know how it ends.

I'm like this weird bailiff-
almost lawyer hybrid species,

foot in both worlds.

That's a copout.
What do you actually believe?

- That is a trick question.
- Another copout.

Why, because I'm not exactly
sure how I feel about something,

or because I might not
agree with you?

I'm not
a defense attorney, Em.

I don't have to convince myself
of things the way you do.

Wow.

That's--That's not
what I meant.

No.

I have to go.

We're not kissing in public
right now, right?

So I'm not making
a statement.

I'm just...walking away.

Hmm, let me guess.
Fashion shoot?

Clubbing, West Hollywood.
I'm gonna get drunk.

It's Carly's process.
Just go with it.

Mark, your father was framed.

What?

Carly's been busy. Tell him.

So the Armenians, they wanted
Addison Farwell dead.

- She was ripping them off.
- She was running

one of their card games,
and while her clients,

which were their clients,
were playing poker all night,

oh, my God, her guys were
literally robbing them blind--

their houses, I mean.

It's pretty ballsy, right?And when the Armenians
found out,

Addison had to go.Meanwhile, Vic Callan's

running his own little game
on their turf,

which is a big no-no.

So they kill Addison
and frame Vic.

Two birds, one stone.

The argument he had
with Addison?Motive.

- The bragging about the gun?
- Probable cause.

The murder weapon
in Vic's house.Planted.

And it worked.
The cops bit down hard.

He was framed, Mark.
Two birds, one stone.

That's my defense.

- And you can prove this?
- Maybe.

Probably.
Motion to traverse tomorrow.

You should come.

Let's go. You need to party.

Yeah.

It comes down to this.
Your father has a temper.

He is a piece of work

But is he capable
of murder?

Do you really believe that,
Mark?

I have a motion

And the worst part is everyone
has an opinion.

They all think they know
how I'm gonna rule.

I'm the creative judge,
the defense-friendly,

If I knew,
I wouldn't tell you.

I know kids like Diego,

single parent, no money--

they have to make a choice
way too early

how they're gonna survive,

and when they come here
to this building,

the deck is already stacked
against them everywhere else.

It can't be here.
- And yet?

And yet yes, exactly.

These gangs.

If we are going
to deal with them,

we have to be bold.

No snitching means
we need tools.

- Can I give you some advice?
- Can I stop you?

Forget what people
expect of you.

Forget how people think
Lola Carmichael should

look at a problem.
Focus on the law.

Focus on the arguments.

I'm gonna focus
on the accused,

who sit in these rooms

and talk to their lawyers
in good faith,

and I'm gonna focus
on the communities

being victimized,
and actually,

I'm gonna focus
on the victim.

A young man was killed.

Okay. All right.

Changing the subject,

I've been thinking
about you and Vic.
And?

I think you're missing
the entire point.
Really?

I don't think
it's about the murder.[ sighs ]

Not for you. I think
you are putting Vic on trial

for your entire
crappy childhood,

and guess what.
He is never, ever, ever

not going to be guilty.

[ sighs ]

How long have you been
holding that one back?

Ooh, too long.

Better late than never.

You should be thinking
about your case,

not me and Vic.

I can do both.

[ knocking ]

Ohh, Sherri, what is it?

Hey, Your Honor,
you got a minute?

- Is everything okay?
- Yeah.

Uh, Your Honor,
I know you can't--

This is nothing ex parte.
I just want to...

[ sighs ]
I need to say something.

Okay, so, um,
where I grew up,

the neighborhood, Lynwood,

it was full
of hardworking people--

families. It was amazing.

But there were gangs there,
too.

- Sara.
- Just part of the fabric of...

But not everyone is
a gang member,

and not all gangs...

gang members
are criminal.

They run businesses.

They raise
incredible families.

They contribute
to the community.

They just need a place
to belong, that's it.

But they all get targeted.

Sara, I need you to stop.

People use them.

They use these--
these boys, these men,

some of whom
are my family.

They are used by--
[ sighs ]--

as a political platform
to get sheriffs elected,

to get D.A.s elected,
to raise funds for police

rather than
for social services.

Now, I know it's hard
to get the truth out.

There is so much noise.

But in this building...

in 802,
you have inspired us all

by leveling
the playing field.

Now they are trying
to change that

by putting microphones
into our--

I have to stop you now.

But I hear you.

Thank you, Your Honor.

♪♪♪

Detective, when you obtained
your bogus warrant

to search my client's house--
- Objection. Argumentative.

No, it isn't. Overruled.

The sole basis for your warrant
was a statement

made by your informant
Mr. Torley

that on December 3rd
at 9 p.m.,

at the Shortstop bar
in Echo Park,

he overheard my client brag

about having a .357 Magnum
at his house,

which he'd use to, quote,
take care of business.

Correct, and I would add

that the defendant
was known to police.

For playing cards,
not murder.

So, Detective,

you had no idea
the informant was lying?

- Objection.
- Overruled. Sit down.

Look, we took the statement
in good faith.

In good faith, of course.

So you were unaware that,
on the night in question,

your informant was nowhere
near the Shortstop.

He was lying in a puddle
of his own vomit

on Abbot Kinney.

Your Honor,
even if this were true,

the "good faith"
exception applies.

Actually,
it doesn't, Your Honor.

I'm gonna establish why.

- Sit down, Mr. Koch.
- Detective,

at any point,
did you run Mr. Torley

through your own system?

No.
So you didn't see
an L.A.P.D. 647[f] citation

for public intoxication
in Venice,

16 miles
from the Shortstop.

- No, I did not.
- Nothing further, Your Honor.

Mr. Koch, rebuttal?

I--Ahem.
No, Your Honor, I'm good.

I've heard enough.
The witness may step down.

The gun is excluded.[ gavel bangs ]

Courthouse meeting rooms
should not be bugged.

For the record, I want to state
clearly and without ambiguity,

I personally believe

defendants' Sixth Amendment
rights should apply.

This is a courthouse,
not a prison.

It isspecial.

I find the defense's argument
that Mr. Domingues' presence

did not void
attorney-client privilege

to be compelling.

However, I am not convinced

that Mr. Domingues was
a part of the defense team.

An ex-gang member hired
as an expert at the 11th hour

to preserve privilege,
while creative,

does not meet the standards
established by precedent.

Further, the circumstances
by which this evidence,

these names, were obtained

does not invalidate
its probative value.

Law enforcement must be given
the leeway to do its job,

to seek justice
on behalf of the victim,

a young man whose life
was violently taken away--

Lucas Montez.

The motion is denied.
The recordings are in.

Emily: Your Honor--

And right on cue,
save it, Ms. Lopez.

Both of you, my chambers.

Your Honor, if I may...

You deal with terrible
crimes, Mr. Diaz,

and I value your work,
but if I may,

Diego Fondo may have been
present for the murder,

but that does mean
he took part.

- Of course, but--
- Those facts will undoubtedly

be discovered at trial
unless your case

against the other members
of the gang

will be a lot stronger

if you believe Diego
is telling the truth

and you can get him
to testify.

In exchange for immunity
and no jail time.

And relocation
for him and his mother.

They start again
somewhere else.

Otherwise, FDS will--

So Diego is prepared
to testify?

I believe so, Your Honor.
He's ready to tell the truth.

You know, he made a mistake,

but he had the strength
and the courage to fix it.

He came to me,
to us, for help.

He is the reason
we all do this.

When you're ready,
I'll see you back here

for the terms of the deal.
You're excused.

- That went well.
- Did it?

is incarcerated,

these are the only spaces
