Jerry Kellerman tries to find justice in a system plagued with corruption, bias and incompetence. He’s a new kind of TV lawyer, and if his passionate public defender rings true, that may be because he is based on, and created by, former P.D.-turned professor- turned TV producer: Seton Hall Law’s David Feige.

Sandy King and Ray Brown sit down with Professor Feige to preview and discuss “Raising the Bar” - the new weekly drama he’s producing with TV veteran Steven Bochco for TNT - and the uplifting and heartbreaking conflicts he witnessed in and out of court as chief of the groundbreaking Bronx Defenders.
