DEAD LAWYERS: Gets Second Shot with John Stamos as Star

Originally developed for Syfy eight years ago, Sony Pictures TV is looking to give another shot to the premise for Dead Lawyers. This time out the pilot is set to star John Stamos, with Graham Yost serving as co-writer and executive producer. Deadline.com describes the premise as follows: "A hotshot defense attorney is run over by a bus and finds himself in his own version of hell: a law firm on earth composed of other dead lawyers, all trying to right miscarriages of justice in order to redeem themselves."  The studio is taking the premise out to the different networks to see who might be interested. Stamos is always considered a hot property, so it's likely Dead Lawyers will have its day in court.
