This comedy/courtroom drama is based on the true life events of mobster "Fat Jack" DiNorscio (Vin Diesel) with most of the dialog coming directly from court transcripts. After being sentenced to 30 years on a drug charge Jack’s lawyer (Jerry Adler) sets up a meeting between Jack and the prosecutor Sean Kierney (Linus Roache) to lessen his sentence in exchange for testimony against Nick Calabrese (Alex Rocco) and other members of the crime family in an upcoming RICO case. After turning down the plea he becomes fed up with his attorney’s perceived mishandling of his drug case, fees, and the idea he would set up a deal. Jack decides to defend himself in what would turn out to be the longest running mafia trail in U. S. History, with 20 defendants each with his own lawyer and 76 charges the case lasted 21 months. Jack stumbles around procedure and uses his charm to work the jury. All involved except Jack and Judge Finestein (Ron Silver) want Jack to have a separate trial. Along the way Jackie finds his footing and even manages to win over defense attorney Ben Klandis (Peter Dinklage) while enroute to a non guilty verdict.
