What is Judge Fayard Called the Sheriff about?
Jean-Marie Fayard is a young examining magistrate in a large provincial french city.

Criticism and pressure are brought to bear upon him but he is aware of his value, professionally, and refuses to make any concessions. He follows an unwavering course.
