Deliberate mistake: A witness during the murder trial says she was home watching "Boston Public." That series was also created by David E. Kelley, but takes place in the same fictional reality as "The Practice," as evidenced by the two series having a two-part crossover earlier in the season in which Ellenor defended a coach from being fired.
The Practice (1997)
1 deliberate mistake - chronological order
Starring: Dylan McDermott, Steve Harris, Camryn Manheim, Michael Badalucco
Continuity mistake: During the pre-trial hearing between Frutt and Lowe, Frutt's hair alternates between being back off her shoulders to down over her left/right side. She at no time uses her hands to move the hair.
Bobby Donnell: It's better that ten guilty men go free, than one innocent man suffer.
Trivia: Camryn Manheim uses sign language with her client, played by Marlee Matlin. Before becoming an actress, Camryn Manheim actually worked as a sign language interpreter and job trainer/placement specialist for the deaf. She also used her sign language skills in an episode of "Law and Order" called "Benevolence," where she portrayed a defense attorney for a deaf man accused of murdering his girlfriend.
