Justin Timberlake’s driving privileges have been revoked in New York, nearly two months after his DUI arrest.
The singer, currently touring Europe, appeared virtually in a Sag Harbor court, pleading not guilty to drunk driving charges related to the June 18 incident.
His attorney, Edward Burke Jr., sought to dismiss the case, citing errors in the charging documents.
Timberlake was arrested after allegedly running a stop sign and driving erratically in his BMW X7.
He was also cited for failure to stay in his lane. If convicted, he faces up to one year in jail and $500 to $1,000 in fines.
Peter T. Goodrich, a New York attorney, noted that jail time is unlikely without an accident or egregious circumstances, saying, “If you had an accident, that spins the case a lot differently.”
Timberlake made light of his arrest during a tour performance, joking, “Is there anyone here that is driving? No, I’m just kidding.”
