A Courthouse Line XI “Love conquered all” at the eleventh installment of the Atlanta Bar’s Courthouse Line musical parody comedy series at the Rialto Center for the Arts at Georgia State University on May 1 and 2. “A Courthouse Line XI – North Side Story” featured a West Side Story romance between adversaries in a medical malpractice case before a judge who thought he was James Bond.
