Anthony Edwards had quite the memorable role on Law & Order: SVU, when he reunited with his former ER costar, Mariska Hargitay, as Olivia Benson’s former partner, Patrick Griffin, whose son was guilty of rape. In fact, his son was played by none other than Corey Cott, who’s currently playing another character on SVU, also named Griffin (no relation).

But when Edwards pops up in the May 14 Law & Order finale, he’ll be playing a different character. He’s guest-starring as “a judge whose unusual rulings in the courtroom make a challenging case for Price [Hugh Dancy] and Maroun [Odelya Halevi],” TV Insider has learned.
