Description - This listing is for 1 DVD containing 13 episodes of A Life In Your Hands.

"A Life In Your Hands" was a murder/melodrama and courtroom procedural program broadcast that served as a summer replacement show alternating on NBC and ABC during its run from 1949-52.

"Jonathan Kegg", the fictitious hero of "A Life In Your Hands", represented neither the prosecution nor the defense in these murder stories, but was allowed to examine witnesses on both sides in order to learn the truth. Ned LeFevre, Carleton KaDell and Lee Bowman all played the role of "Jonathan Kegg, amicus curiae (friend of the court)".

It is commonly stated that Erle Stanley Gardner of "Perry Mason" fame developed and wrote scripts for this series, but in reality, he contributed his name only.
