description Abstract: This paper aims to carry out a thorough discursive analysis of the community depicted in the famous TV series How to Get Away with Murder. Drawing on the theoretical framework provided by scholars John Swales, Dell Hymes, Teun van Dijk and Jean-Michel Adam, the discourse community at issue is described in depth and three relevant discourse samples are analyzed: the cross-examination of a defendant (SPEAKING model), a sign setting out the court dress code to be enforced, and part of an emergency custody order (macrostructures and superstructures, and textual sequences).
