Star Justice: Courtney's New Leaf, Sandra's First Time
August 20, 2004

Two big-name stars were in court Friday: Sandra Bullock and Courtney Love. "Extra" got the details on the new and improved Courtney Love, and how Bullock's day turned into a family affair.

Beautiful leading lady Sandra Bullock came with her father to court Friday, to fight against the developer of her Austin mansion.

Sandra fell in love with Austin while shooting her movie "Hope Floats" in 1998, and decided to build a house there -- but she likely never imagined her dream house would end up as a courthouse nightmare. Today the jury heard opening arguments in the lawsuit Sandra's against the developer for, "defective work."

Meanwhile, a very different Courtney Love showed up to a Los Angeles courthouse. The usually rebellious rocker was on time, conservatively dressed and humble. "It's scary," she revealed to us. "I'm scared"

Love is charged with beating aspiring rock singer Kristin King with a liquor bottle and a metal flashlight. Courtney pleaded "not guilty," but the experience left her badly shaken. "I just want to play music, and being in the court and having him say, 'The State of California Versus Me.' It's just scary," she told us.

The judge reminded Love to stay away from King, and on the way out, the singer seemed to regain her sense of humor, saying to a police officer, "No offense, but I hope I never see you again."
