JMM (Better Call Saul)
JMM refers to "Justice Matters More," a fictional legal scholarship fund featured prominently in the American television drama series Better Call Saul. The fund is established by Clifford Main, a senior partner at the prestigious law firm Davis & Main, where Jimmy McGill (later Saul Goodman) briefly works.
The Justice Matters More fund is intended to support law students dedicated to pursuing public defender work, providing them with financial assistance and opportunities to gain experience in the field. It represents Main's commitment to ethical and socially conscious legal practice.
The fund becomes a recurring plot point throughout the series, particularly in relation to Jimmy's actions and his relationship with Clifford Main. Jimmy's impulsive behavior and tendency towards unethical tactics often clashes with the fund's intended purpose and Main's values, leading to tension and conflict. The JMM acronym itself serves as a constant reminder of the ideals that Jimmy struggles to uphold, highlighting the contrast between his aspirations for legitimate success and his eventual descent into Saul Goodman's morally ambiguous world. The fund serves as a symbol of the type of law Jimmy could have practiced.
