Nicole Richie has had her court date finalised for charges of driving under the influence. A spokesperson for the LA Attorney's office said that the proceedings will go ahead on July 11 after a number of delays following the incident in December. They told Entertainmentwise: , "Commissioner Steven Lubell did not want any more delays. The trial is now set for July 11. It must happen within 10 days of that date or Richie must enter a plea."

However, Richie's lawyer said that nothing was confirmed yet: "Just because it is set for trial that does not mean we are going to trial. We are still discussing things and we are still looking at the case."
