Arthur Branch was a regular cast member on Law & Order and Law & Order: Trial by Jury. He also made several guest appearances on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and one appearance on Conviction and Law & Order: Criminial Intent. He is the District Attorney of New York County. He was elected in 2001 and replaced Nora Lewin. He resigned, for still unspecified reasons, in 2007 and was replaced by Jack McCoy. His politics are generally much more conservative that Lewin's, as he generally supports capital punishment and does not acknowledge a constitutionally-based right to privacy.
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: Called Home)
