\n\tBritney Spears<\/a> is facing a criminal charge after being pulled over and arrested<\/a> for allegedly driving under the influence<\/a> in March.<\/p>\n \n\tOn Thursday, April 30, prosecutors in Ventura County, California charged Spears with one misdemeanor count of driving under the influence. Her arraignment is scheduled for Monday May 4 at 9 a.m. PT. Spears is not required to attend in person and her attorney will be able to appear on her behalf.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tA press statement from the Ventura County District Attorney\u2019s Office noted that it plans to offer Spears a type of plea deal known as a \u201cwet reckless.\u201d This is offered to people without past DUIs, low blood alcohol level, and where there was no crash or injury.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tThe DA\u2019s office noted that this type of resolution is \u201ccommon, particularly when a defendant demonstrates self-motivation to address underlying issues\u201d through rehab or treatment. Spears voluntarily checked into a rehab<\/a> facility earlier this month.<\/p>\n \n\tIf Spears takes the deal, she\u2019ll be able to plead out to reckless driving involving alcohol and\/or drugs. The punishment will likely include 12 months of probation, fees and fines, the completion of a DUI class, and credit for any time spent in custody.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tA rep for Spears did not immediately return a request for comment.<\/p>\n
