Overview
Newman's Law is a 1974 American crime film directed by Richard T. Heffron and starring George Peppard.
Plot
Vince Newman (George Peppard), a hard-nosed Los Angeles cop, is loyal to his partner Garry (Roger Robinson), devoted to his family and far too principled to take a bribe. So when he gets booted from duty after being falsely accused of extortion, he decides to go rogue and keep investigating an organized crime case he was working on. As he digs deeper, he stumbles upon a conspiracy that might extend beyond the local mob scene, perhaps even to the highest reaches of his own department.
