This episode marks the first appearance of Diane Neal as ADA Casey Novak since the season nine finale, Cold (2008). Consequently, it is revealed that her character was censured and lost her license for three years rather than being disbarred, as Kim Greylek erroneously claimed in season ten's Confession (2008).
One of two different shows that Afton Williamson & Vondie Curtis-Hall both guest starred in 2011. The other was A Gifted Man (2011), episode "In Case of Missed Communication (2011)".
