ustin Timberlake has a court appearance in the Hamptons later this week stemming from his DWI arrest. But will the “SexyBack” singer himself appear in court?
The short answer: No
“Mr. Timberlake will not be in attendance on 7/26 court appearance,” a representative from the office of attorney Edward Burke Jr. confirmed to Newsweek on Tuesday.
“Mr. Burke will be attending the court appearance in person even though it is mostly virtual just because our office is right across the street from the court. This will be a very procedural conference with the District Attorney and the Judge.”
Justin Timberlake, 43, was arrested for DWI last month in Long Island. GETTY IMAGESTimberlake is scheduled to bring his “Forget Tomorrow World Tour” to Kraków, Poland, on July 26, meaning he’ll be far away from Long Island, New York where he was arrested for DWI on June 18.

Timberlake was charged with driving… SAG HARBOR POLICE DEPARTMENT VIA GETTY IMAGESPolice documents reported by the Associated Press claimed officers observed Timberlake running a stop light, swerving multiple times, and failing to maintain his lane while driving his BMW through the village after midnight.
The arresting officer did not know who Timberlake was, Page Six reported. The singer allegedly said under his breath at the time of his arrest, “This is going to ruin the tour.” The cop asked, “What tour?” and Timberlake replied, “The world tour.”
Timberlake refused to take a breathalyzer test following his arrest, allegedly telling officers, “I had one martini and followed my friends home.” The documents noted Timberlake’s “bloodshot and glassy” eyes, the “strong odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from his breath,” and his poor performance on all standardized field sobriety tests.

The former boy bander returned to his tour just days after his arrest in Chicago, where he addressed the controversy.
“We’ve been together through ups and downs and lefts and rights. And, uh, it’s been a tough week. But you’re here and I’m here. Nothing can change this moment right now,” Timberlake said “I know sometimes I’m hard to love, but you keep on loving me and I love you right back.”
This isn’t the first time alcohol has gotten JT in trouble. In 2019, paparazzi caught him holding hands with his Palmer costar Alisha Wainwright on a balcony in New Orleans. He publicly apologized to his wife Jessica Biel, 42, in a lengthy Instagram caption, admitting he “drank way too much that night” but “nothing happened between me and my costar.”
