these legal mysteries/thrillers invite you into the courtroom; to stand trial, defend the accused and listen to attorneys and judges. Here, the courtroom is central or at least very important to the story. The protagonists are either lawyers or working for the court in some other way. Sometimes, they have to defend someone close to them, sometimes they are the accused...

This list is open for suggestions!

Because good movies appreciate good stories first. Adding more to this all the time!
