Britney Goes on Trial for Traffic Offense
Britney Spears goes on trial, Wednesday, Oct 15th, in a Van Nuys, California court, on a charge of driving without a license, after more than a year of legal bickering.
Britney, is not required to attend because it’s considered only a misdemeanor case. However, the pop star faces up to 6 months in jail and a $1000 fine.
The trial will start the jury selection which is expected to last a few days.
Britney Spears, 26, chose trial by jury after rejecting a plea deal of one year’s probation and a $150 fine.
Britney’s attorney, Michael Flanagan, who turned down twice the prosecutors’ plea deal, says: “My client will never plead guilty to this charge, which should be reduced to an infraction”. “We’ll appeal any conviction.”
Spears was charged for a hit-and-run charge back in August 2007. The charge was eventually dropped after she paid the other driver for damages, but the driving without a license charge stuck.
At the time, Britney Spears had a Louisiana license, but later got a California license.
