Jagged Edge (1985) is a Columbia Pictures film starring Jeff Bridges and Glenn Close. It has a clear Ghostbusters reference: A No Ghost Logo poster in hanging on the wall of the kid's bedroom at 21:42. A screenshot of that was just uploaded to the Spook Central Patreon page here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/146686742
Many scenes later in the film take place in a courtroom. I think bits and pieces of this courtroom set were later re-used in Ghostbusters II. Not all of it, mind you, and the wall with the windows is on the opposite side, but I see enough details that do match - especially the wood molding and the placement of things, that I definitely think parts were re-used. I did a couple of quick screenshot comparisons to start the conversation. Hopefully the forum software resizes the GB2 Blu-ray screens to fit the page.
Obviously, the area behind the judge doesn't match, but the wood molding and columns, and placement of the doors and their frames, do match.

Most of the stuff in the room itself I'm ignoring, but I do think the tables that both sides sit at were re-used in GB2. That looks like the same swirl pattern on the legs.

The Judge's bench is not a match, but the witness stand and everything in the background on the right side does seem to match.

Different window panes above the door, but the door and wood panelling seem to match.

This first image is a composite panning shot from Jagged Edge. I thought I was on to something with there being three windows (the panes could have been changed later), but the GB2 windows go down lower than the JE windows.

If anyone wants to dig into this a little more, especially if an HD copy of Jagged Edge could be obtained (I only have it on DVD), feel free to do so. I did the best I could with what materials and time I have to work with right now.
