Judgment at Nuremberg centers on a military tribunal convened in Nuremberg, Germany, in which four German judges and prosecutors stand accused of crimes against humanity for their involvement in atrocities committed under the Nazi regime. Judge Dan Haywood (Spencer Tracy) is the Chief Trial Judge of a three-judge panel that will hear and decide the case against the defendants. Haywood begins his examination by trying to learn how the defendant Ernst Janning (Burt Lancaster) could have sentenced so many people to death. Janning, it is revealed, is a well-educated and internationally respected jurist and legal scholar. Haywood seeks to understand how the German people could have turned blind eyes and deaf ears to the crimes of the Nazi regime. In doing so, he befriends the widow (Marlene Dietrich) of a German general who had been executed by the Allies. He talks with a number of Germans who have different perspectives on the war. Other characters the judge meets are U.S. Army Captain Byers (William Shatner), who is assigned to the American party hearing the cases, and Irene Hoffman (Judy Garland), who is afraid to bring testimony that may bolster the prosecution's case against the judges.

Philo est à Vienne travaillant pour le gouvernement des États-Unis pour voir si Archer Coe vend des dessins d'avions à des puissances étrangères. Il saisit les plans avec la signature Archer, mais est capturé par la police avant qu'il ne puisse échapper. Déporté, il revient à l'Amérique et des plans pour faire face à Archer, mais Archer est retrouvé mort dans sa chambre fermée à clé avec un fusil à la main. Bien qu'il ressemble à un suicide, Vance sait mieux et le coroner estime que Archer a été tué, frappé avec un objet contondant et poignardée - qui fait du suicide improbable. Mais Vance est sur l'affaire et cherche à voir si les secrets du gouvernement ont été vendus et qui a assassiné Coe. Ceci est un remake de « The Assassiner Kennel Case » à l'aide des dessins d'avions et d'espionnage au lieu de la porcelaine chinoise et des spectacles de chiens.
