Your Code should work. I simplified it and ran it here (see below).
You can try the following:
clear % run this
clear 'all' % and also try this
% before you plot make a line like this (this forces a new figure)
figure(10); hold on; grid on; clf;
And also try restarting Matlab. If this also does not help you have to provide the whole code (as already suggested). Maybe you plot I3 before for some reason. This can be tested: Just enter more names in the legend:
legend('test1', 'test2', 'test3', 'test4', 'test5', 'test6', 'test7', 'test8')
The Code that works:
L_interp = linspace(0,10,10);
I3 = rand(1,10);
I2 = rand(1,10);
plot(L_interp, I3, 'g--', L_interp, I2, 'b--');
xlabel('wavelength');
ylabel('I');
legend('I3', 'I2');
