Brooklyn D.A. (miniseries)
Brooklyn D.A.[1][2] was a six-part television mini-series that focused on "assistant district attorneys and other underlings of Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes.[3] It aired on CBS prior to the 2013 primary election. In defense of charges[4][5][6] for having violated equal-time provisions CBS claimed that it was a news series.[7][3]
Hearings regarding the legalities involved disclosure requests for eMails.[8] Another matter was "from a lawyer complaining" that some of what was aired might affect his client, since the mini-series might "prejudice prospective jurors when his client goes on trial."[9]
