Rick Fox and his girlfriend
Eliza Dushku didn't just go the extra mile for a family member Thursday -- they went an extra 115 miles -- driving from L.A. to a courtroom in the Mojave Desert to support Eliza's big bro.
Turns out, Eliza's big brother -- actor
Nathaniel Dushku -- was busted in the desert city of Barstow, CA back in January, after cops say dude was speeding down the highway at more than 100 MPH.
Nate was due back in court yesterday -- and Rick and Eliza made the drive to lend support.
But this story has a happy ending -- we're told the officer who busted Nate was a no-show in court and the ticket was dismissed.
Former Laker
