Synopsis
[The following plot summary is based on the English-language version of this film, The Trial of Mary Dugan ; character names refer to that version] Pretty Mary Dugan is placed on trial for the murder of her sugardaddy, who was found shot to death in the apartment he kept for her. Edward West, Mary's attorney, deliberately restrains himself in his cross-examination of the witnesses for the prosecution, and Mary's brother, Jimmy, who is a fledgling lawyer, strongly protests. West withdraws from the case, and Jimmy takes over his sister's defense. Jimmy puts Mary on the stand, and her subsequent testimony reveals that she had been the mistress of four successive men in order to earn enough money to put Jimmy through law school. Jimmy brings about Mary's acquittal by proving that Edward West was the man who murdered Mary's benefactor.

Notes
This is the Spanish-language version of the 1929 English-language film The Trial of Mary Dugan, which was written and directed by Bayard Veiller and starred Norma Shearer and Lewis Stone. M-G-M also made French and German-language versions (see Le procès de Mary Dugan and Mordprozess Mary Dugan.) The onscreen credits were taken from a studio cutting continuity. Some sources include actor Juan Duval in the credits of the Spanish version, but his participation in the released film has not been confirmed.
