Justin Timberlake has lost his driving privileges in New York, a court ruled today.

The former NSYNC bandmember was arrested for driving while intoxicated in Sag Harbor, a wealthy village in the Hamptons in New York state in June for an alcohol-related offence.

The US popstar, 43, appeared in court virtually from Antwerp, Belgium and pleaded not guilty to a revised misdemeanor charge of driving drunk, as reported by People.

Sag Harbor Village Justice Carl Irace has ruled that the singer’s driving privileges in the state of New York will be suspended. How long this suspension will last for is unconfirmed.

Following the hearing, Timberlake’s lawyer Edward Burke Jr. told reporters the suspension is ‘standard with every DUI’.
