Exiled: A Law & Order Movie is a 1998 (two-hour-format) television film based on the Law & Order police procedural and legal drama television series; it originally aired on NBC. Written by Charles Kipps (from a story by Kipps and Chris Noth), the film revolves around Noth's character, Detective Mike Logan. Kipps received a 1999 Edgar Award for his screenplay. Plot The movie begins three years after Detective Mike Logan's final appearance on Law & Order in 1995. At the end of the episode "Pride," Logan punches a corrupt, homophobic politician in the face on the courthouse steps after the man's acquittal on a murder charge, in front of several reporters. Although he does not lose his job, Logan is "administratively reassigned" to the Domestic Disputes Department on Staten Island. While he struggles to cope with feelings of resentment and isolation, fate offers him a chance at redemption when a forgotten homicide case unexpectedly drifts Logan's way. The case may uncover a dirty-cop conspiracy (ultimately leading back to the 27th Precinct, the very precinct that banished him), and his commanding officer repeatedly orders him to leave the case to the "real detectives" in the NYPD. Logan sees solving the case as the long-hoped-for chance to resurrect his career and get reinstated as a homicide detective. Logan also becomes romantically involved with the victim's relative. Soon, he must choose between one woman's feelings for him and doing whatever it takes to regain the only thing he has ever loved – being an NYPD homicide detective.
