"HE DOUBLE CROSSED JUSTICE...UNTIL LOVE DOUBLE CROSSED HIM!!"
A sleazy lawyer's favorite technique is to teach his female clients how to use their bodies provocatively in court to influence the jury. His methods are undoubtedly successful. Unfortunately, his female assistant is offended by the tactic and threatens to expose him. Instead, she falls in love with him. She then uses her own feminine charms to get him to stop.
