Lawyer Jeff Toland hangs out his shingle in Ivestown, but is ordered out by a vigilante group headed by Les Harper. The vigilantes are merely a cloak under which the band of outlaws headed by Harper operate to terrorize and control the town. When it is learned that the new railroad survey takes the tracks through East Ivestown instead of Ivestown, the gang plans to drive out the homesteaders and ranchers along the right-of-way and file on the land themselves. Jeff leads the fight for the intended victims against the gang.
Legion of the Lawless (great title) is another lively western starring George O' Brien who is on top form as a lawyer. He gets tangled with lawlessness and vigilantism and Virginia Vale who plays the daughter of a vigilante leader - the good one. There's a bad vigilante played by Norman Willis who leads other bad apples in the vigilante group.
This RKO western is engaging, has some snappy and witty dialogue and a good chemistry from O' Brien and Virginia Vale - there's an intelligence to the plot, but also a little action to keep things ticking.
