The synopsis for the next episode of season 7 of The Good Wife reveals that Alicia (Julianna Margulies) is going to have to go back to bond court to help a wrongfully convicted client.

The episode, titled "Judged," is also going to focus on another case, in which Diane will be defending a student editor of a college newspaper who has been threatened to be fired for an article she wrote.

Here's the official synopsis:

Could Hillary Clinton Guest Star In An Upcoming Episode?

"Alicia argues against Judge Schakowsky (Christopher McDonald) when she learns that a former bond court client was wrongfully imprisoned. Also, Diane assists the student editor of a college newspaper when the school threatens to fire her for writing a politically charged article."

The previous episode, titled "Tracks," was slightly consequential as it saw the exit of Ruth (Margot Martindale) and the reentry of Eli (Alan Cumming) in his original position as Peter's (Chris Noth) campaign manager. This shuffle has also caused the tension to escalate between Eli and Alicia on the legal drama, as now Eli needs to get Alicia to cooperate to help with Peter's campaigning.

The episode will air on January 31 on CBS.
