HOLLYWOOD -
Britney Spears is pleading innocent to her latest motoring misdemeanor charge--driving without a valid license.
The troubled pop star's attorney, J. Michael Flanagan, told TMZ.com he will plead not guilty on behalf of the 25-year-old when he enters the courtroom on Thursday.
Spears, who will not be present in court, has been booked with one count of hit-and-run causing property damage, and one count of driving without a valid California license. Both charges are misdemeanors, each carrying a maximum of six months in jail.
The charges stem from an incident on Aug. 6 in Los Angeles, where Spears allegedly smashed into a parked car in a private parking lot in the San Fernando Valley. The singer reached a settlement agreement with the woman whose car she hit, and it is thought that the hit-and-run charge is likely to be dropped.
