"The Uncertain Courtroom of Themis" is based on a unique legal mystery by Sho Naoshima. It is a courtroom drama about a judge with a developmental disorder who struggles with his own unique characteristics while taking on complex cases. The screenplay is written by Hideya Hamada, who has also written the Fuji TV series "Ichikei no Karasu" and the "Absolute Zero" series.
In episode 4, new evidence is found in a trial over an accident caused by a transportation company driver, pointing to the company's responsibility, and the trial seems to be going in favor of the plaintiff, Shinomiya (Ito Ao). However, the shadow of an external organization with government backing behind the transportation company looms, and Kadokura (Endo Kenichi), who has been warned by the Supreme Court Secretariat not to "stand out in a bad light," begins to show hesitation in directing the lawsuit.
Then, he says something unexpected to Ando (Matsuyama), who keeps his resignation letter in his desk.
