Celebrity Justice
Britney Doesn't Want to Stand Trial for Ding, Dang

Posted Sep 29th 2008 7:38PM by TMZ Staff

Britney SpearsShe may not have put the brakes on when she should have, but Britney now wants the judge in her lil' traffic accident case to slam those suckers down.

You'll recall Brit is set to stand trial for driving without a valid California license -- a case that has dragged on for a year. Remember, the crazy version of Britney struck a car in August of last year and the cops found she was driving with a Louisiana license in Los Angeles.

Now her lawyer wants the judge to stop the trial, at least for now, because of the conservatorship. According to the docs, she's still not totally with it. Brit is "unable to participate meaningfully in her defense."

It's kind of weird, because we're hearing the conservatorship could end as early as next month. So the new trial of the century may still be coming to a cable channel soon.

1. "According to the docs, she's still not totally with it. Brit is "unable to participate meaningfully in her defense." Love that comment! Yet she is planning to go on tour again. What a liar!

5. She's not well enough to participate in her own defense, but they're going to consider her conservatorship next month. Hmm... I predict she'll be dead by the end of next year. Sad, but true!

7. Once again, a Los Angeles DA is making a big deal over nothing because they have a celebrity on their hands.
Honestly, this is BS.

Why aren't they out they out there catching REAL criminals instead of creating another three-ring circus over an out-of-state driver's licence, the "problem" has already been corrected.

8. What is it with you posters that you are always trying to bring celebs down. Get a life and curb your damn envy.

9. Hey, the crazy bitch hit someone's car and drove off. You think a hit and run is ok? Lucky for her she got off those charges but she was already warned about driving without a valid license and ignored it. They should lock this cow up and throw away the key (I thought they had).

10. @9- if you call hitting a parked car a hit and run then so be it but you make it sound like she plowed down a child and ran off

she was ill and shouldn't have been driving but people who MURDER suffer less mental defect than she was at the time and get off scott free

LA police should be out doing something meaningful with there time instead of trying to get close tot he rich and famous any way they can

11. A more interesting story, and I don't know why TMZ isn't carrying it, is Adnan shopping around the sex tape he made with Brit-Brit. What a classy guy. What a classy girl.

13. DRIVING IS NOT A RIGHT SHE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO CORRECT HER DRIVERS LICENSE UNTIL SHE SETTELED HER COURT CASES AND PAID RESTITUTION . NOW SHES DRIVING AROUND TOWN AND NOT EVEN STABLE ENOUGH TO TELL A JUDGE WHY SHE COULDNT FILL OUT A STUPID FORM FOR A CALIFORNIA DRIVERS LICENSE???HER DAD SHOULD TAKE AWAY ALL HER CARS FOR EVERYONES GOOD. MOST BI-POLAR MEDS WARN ABOUT OPERATING A MOTOR VEHICLE ANYWAYS....
