The Bench is set in the chambers of a busy magistrate's court. Every day our core characters face whatever challenges and dilemmas the legal system throws at them, from escaping prisoners to arsonists; jealous wives wreaking revenge to accidental killers. Not to mention the tensions, desires, frustration and outright resentment simmering under the surface of this high pressured legal team.
