PLOT:
An eccentric fun-loving judge presides over an urban night court and all the silliness going on there.

season 1 - 
The staff of a Manhattan arraignment court is surprised by the arrival of a maverick young judge named Harry Stone. His first ruling: that a feuding couple should go to dinner with the attorneys, results in a fight breaking out that injures Dan. Harry must deal with a pair of volatile teenage runaways and an old man who believes he's the real Santa Claus. An office bet over what Harry's true age is leads to the discovery that he has a criminal record. Harry's "missing" mother and a beauty pageant operator appear in court. Bull feels misunderstood and quits in anger. A blind shoplifter awaiting trial keeps trying to give his police handler the slip. A rock is thrown through the courtroom window, with a death threat in Harry's name. A smitten prostitute waits for Harry in his chambers. Dan and Bull are at odds over the same woman, Harry throws his cap into the ring when he realizes the woman has a spare ticket for a Mel Torme concert. Lana starts acting crazy after overdosing on some medications. A Russian immigrant threatens to set himself and the courtroom on fire. Harry's relationship with a rock star leads to the courtroom being overrun by her fans. Bull is a walking zombie at work, and the court staff finds that he has been taking care of a baby for a neighbor who has apparently abandoned him. A woman must choose between her two husbands, one of whom was thought killed in Vietnam.

season 2 - 
A young novice nun decides to leave her convent after becoming smitten with Harry. Bright young public defender Christine Sullivan finds out she still has a lot to learn after her first day in Harry's court, while Harry ends up throwing her overprotective father in jail for insulting him. On her first day, public defender Billie Young takes an aggressive stand in defense of her client against a powerful corporation, a stand that leads to her being jailed for contempt. A humble man with a $3 million lottery ticket wants Harry to give it away to the most worthy person. A school-aged computer whiz hacks into the school district's database and takes their permanent records hostage. When Bull becomes a volunteer father to a 13-year-old boy, he is in for a real surprise, he discovers the boy is a girl. Harry's nemesis, Judge Willard, has him tried before the Judicial Review Board on charges of unprofessional behavior. When an exclusive house of prostitution gets busted, Harry must decide whether to admit the madam's private diary as evidence in the case against her. Harry is struck down in the middle of session by crippling stomach pains, but stubbornly refuses medical treatment. A blizzard traps the gang inside the courthouse without supplies, and an electrical failure traps Dan in an elevator with a gay man who finds him very attractive. Mac marries a woman he met in Vietnam and Harry refuses to ignore his duties despite the loss of his sight. Feeling sorry for Harry on his birthday, Billie takes him to her apartment for a nightcap. They are held up by a burglar and spend the night tied together. Dan's extremely rustic parents come to visit him in Manhattan, embarrassing him all night until he disowns them. A group of mental patients fleeing their hospital run loose in the courtroom, with one, a mute, shutting herself in a closet with a revolver.
