As well as featuring individual stories, the series features an ongoing story arc throughout all five episodes. As well as looking at the work of the justice centre, plotlines also look at Coburn's troubled past and the relationship with parish priest Father Jim Kelly (Tom Georgeson). The series was released on Region 1 DVD on October 25, 2011. No further series of Justice were commissioned, due to then-BBC1 controller Danny Cohen claiming that there was "too many crime dramas on TV", and axing it alongside other BBC crime dramas, including Zen.
