A defense attorney tries to prove the innocence of his client on a murder charge, despite witness after witness testifying against him. However, during a cross examination of a crucial witness, the lawyer is able to establish the real truth.

Defense Attorney Gerald Waring uses great skill and ingenuity in his efforts to save the life of a boy charged with the murder of his father.
