Judge Ben Phalen (Noah Beery) deplores the fact that his son Gil (Donald Barry), brilliant young lawyer, wastes his talent defending crooks. Doctor Andrews (Bryand Washburn), outwardly respected citizen, is secretly the head of an outlaw gang. Andrews makes it appear that Gil has bribed a witness and has him suspended. The bank is robbed and the Judge murdered. Gil is blamed for the crime. Linda Ward, the Judge's secretary , gives Gil information that arouses his suspicions of Andrews. Gill finally gets the truth from a dying gunman, is absolved,and replaces his father as Superior Court Judge of Carson City.
