65 Folgen (3 Staffeln)
Deutsche Erstausstrahlung: 07.01.1985 (Sat.1)
Der alte Richter Milton G. Hardcastle steht kurz vor seiner Pensionierung. In seiner letzten Verhandlung bearbeitet er den Fall des Rennfahrers Mark McCormick, der angeblich einen superschnellen Sportwagen gestohlen haben soll. Doch die Hintergründe sind kompliziert: McCormick ist eigentlich unschuldig und hat in gutem Glauben gehandelt. Da Richter Hardcastle nicht vorhat, sich wirklich zur Ruhe zu setzen, sondern sich künftig um ungeklärte Fälle kümmern will, scheint ihm deshalb der findige McCormick als idealer Partner. So versuchen sie zunächst einmal, Licht in den Fall des gestohlenen Autos und den Tod seines Erbauers zu bringen. Da ihre Zusammenarbeit erfolgreich verläuft, bleiben die beiden Partner und ermitteln als Detektive in bisher ungeklärten Fällen von verschwundenen Personen, Mordfällen, Hehlerei oder Bestechung.
