Justin Timberlake Pleads Not Guilty in New York DWI Case

Justin Timberlake pled not guilty in his driving while intoxicated case, according to multiple media reports. During the hearing, the judge announced that Timberlake’s driver’s license would be suspended.

Timberlake virtually attended the Friday hearing, which took place in Sag Harbor, N.Y. Currently, the singer is in Antwerp, Belgium. The hearing was the singer’s second arraignment for DUI, which occurred because his attorney, Edward Burke, caught that a superior officer did not sign the charging papers from Timberlake’s arrest.

The “SexyBack” singer spoke twice during the session to answer “yes” to Justice Carl Irace. At one point, the judge reprimanded Timberlake’s lawyer, Edward Burke, for the “irresponsible” comments he made to the media last week following his client’s court appearance.

The singer was arrested in June after failing to stop at a stop sign. An officer from Sag Harbor Police stated that Timberlake had “slowed speech” and that he “performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests”

ABC 7 NY was the first to report this story.
