Public Defender Michael puts on a clinic in trial advocacy when his client is accused of maliciously setting fire to… a palm tree. Yes, that's right — the prosecution turned a crispy plant into a felony.

Michael's research, quick wit, and sharp cross-examination exposed just how absurd the case really was. By the end, the jury saw what he did: this wasn't arson, this was nonsense.

This one's got it all — legal deep dives, trial fireworks, and the kind of courtroom comedy that makes you wonder how these cases even make it to trial.
