Changes: Arthur Branch

Revision as of 10:36, 14 January 2020

Arthur Branch was the District Attorney of New York County from 2002 to 2007. 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 and does not acknowledge a constitutionally-based right to privacy. He has said he feels Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided.

Michael Cutter told Branch's successor Jack McCoy that Branch was being recruited to participate in a reality television show. He did not respond when McCoy asked if that statement was a joke. (L&O: "Reality Bites")
