Arthur Branch was the District Attorney (D.A.) of New York County from 2002 to 2007.

History[]

He was elected in 2001 and replaced Nora Lewin. He resigned, for unspecified reasons, in 2007 and was replaced by Jack McCoy. His politics are generally much more conservative than Lewin's, as he generally supports capital punishment. He does not acknowledge a constitutionally-based right to privacy and said he feels Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided because of that view.

Michael Cutter told Branch's successor Jack McCoy that Branch was being recruited to participate in a reality television show revolving around the case they had just closed. Cutter did not respond when a stunned McCoy asked if that statement was a joke. (L&O: "Reality Bites")
