Stranger On Horseback (1955)
Judge Thorne (Joel McCrea) is a circuit judge who comes to a small western town which is under the feudal thumb of the Bannerman family. Headed by Josiah Bannerman (John McIntire), his trigger-happy son, Tom (Kevin McCarthy), and his strong-willed niece, Amy Lee (Miroslava) the whole town is either related to the Bannerman's or working for them. After a man is killed by Tom Bannerman in supposed self-defence, Judge Thorne states that Tom has to stand trial in his court. As the Bannermans close in on Judge Thorne, he remains steadfast in his desire to uphold the law, even if it means putting on his gun belt again...Outlaw Women (1952)

When the Doctor is kidnapped by Beth Larabee (Carla Balenda) and taken to Las Mujeres to attend to a dying woman he finds himself in the middle of a shootout when Callaway arrives.
