Winehouse wants to postpone court hearing
BERGEN, Norway (AP) -February 27, 2008 Winehouse and her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, were arrested in
the western city of Bergen in October. They were held overnight on
charges of possessing 1/4 ounce of marijuana and released the next
morning after paying fines of $715 each.
The tattooed songstress later appealed the fine, claiming
Norwegian police made mistakes in the case.
A court hearing is scheduled Friday. Her lawyer, Ole Kvelstad,
said Winehouse hasn't received the letter detailing the date, news
agency NTB reported.
Bergen Police Attorney Rudolf Christoffersen told NTB that
Winehouse knows the date of the hearing, even if the letter hasn't
arrived.
Winehouse, 24, won five Grammy Awards earlier this month,
including best record ("Rehab"), best song ("Rehab") and best
new artist.
