The situation leads to her to consider finding a higher-paying job. |
| 2x05 - Is There a Doctor in the House?: | | Jerry defends the case of a woman picked up for drug possession, for a substance which she insists is only laundry detergent.

| 2x06 - I'll Be Down to Get You a Taxi, Honey: | | Jerry takes on a pro bono case in which he defends a man arrested for running over his crooked lawyer with a car.

And Bobbi’s final divorce papers are ready to sign. |
| 2x07 - Fine and Dandy: | | Moments after being acquitted on a weapons charge, one of Jerry’s clients is re-arrested on a parole violation for weapons possession. Richard picks a fight with Judge Kessler, claiming that her decision to jail his client for 30 days over a $75 fine is essentially punishment for being poor.

Meanwhile, Bobbi has difficulty adjusting to her new living situation, and Jerry’s attempts [...] (More) |
| 2x08 - Trust Me: | | Bobbi defends a confidential informant demanding a separate trial from his co-defendent, who could have him killed if word gets out about his cooperation with the police.

| 2x09 - Trout Fishing: | | In order to help give a woman the chance to help her son complete his college applications before she has to go into prison, Jerry tries to get a continuance based on having to work a trial in Judge Kessler’s courtroom. But Farnsworth won’t grant the continuance, and that creates a battle of wills between him and Kessler, with Jerry and his clients caught in the crossfire. Balco, meanwhile, uses Michelle to seek a continuance on a trial in which Richard’s client is accused of murdering his own wife. [...] (More) |
| 2x10 - Making Up is Hard To Do: | | Bobbi defends a young woman accused of trying to smuggle a brick of cocaine, but her client’s appearance proves to be an issue. Michelle, who is prosecuting the case, has to rely on testimony by her cop boyfriend, but there’s something a little too coincidental about his involvement. Meanwhile, Jerry works on Marcus to secure a better deal for his client, but Marcus refuses, saying Jerry should have accepted the offer a year ago, when it was first made. Marcus also uses the case as an opportunity [...] (More) |
| 2x11 - Bobbi Ba-Bing: | | Jerry defends a young man who stabbed a fellow inmate. But the client should never have been in jail in the first place.
