Singer and songwriter Justin Timberlake said "Bye, Bye, Bye" to his driver's license on Friday after a judge ruled to suspend it during a hearing for his DWI case on Long Island.

Timberlake, 43, a former NSYNC heartthrob-turned-solo artist, pleaded not guilty to a revised DWI charge during the hearing in Sag Harbor Village Justice Court. He appeared virtually from Antwerp, Belgium, where he is currently stopped for his world tour, reported Deadline.

The pop singer's license in New York was suspended by Justice Carl Irace. Edward Burke Jr., Timberlake's counsel, was reprimanded by Irace during the hearing for his "irresponsible" remarks during a hearing last Friday, per the New York Post, with Irace saying of the attorney's comments during the August 2 hearing, "It comes off as an attempt to poison the case before it even begins." Burke had criticized the officer who arrested Timberlake as being "young" and "part-time."

Timberlake was arrested in the Hamptons in June for allegedly driving while intoxicated (DWI). The singer was pulled over after driving through a stop sign and weaving on the road. He reportedly claimed at the time that he had just "one martini" while out with friends, according to court documents. The officer who made the arrest wrote in the criminal complaint that Timberlake was in "an intoxicated condition" with "bloodshot and glassy" eyes and "a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage" coming from him. He also "performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests."

During last week's hearing, attorney Burke argued that his client "was not intoxicated" when arrested. He motioned to dismiss the charges against Timberlake, claiming that a superior officer did not sign the initial charging documents, as per Deadline.

Burke withdrew his motion to dismiss after Irace presented him with the option to either continue with the motion, potentially forcing his client to appear in person to be re-arrested, or withdraw it since the Suffolk County District Attorney had submitted a new criminal complaint with the noted procedural errors fixed.

The next hearing is scheduled for Aug. 9 and Timberlake is not required to appear for it, however, the singer may be required to appear at a later hearing scheduled for Sept. 13.
