Justin Timberlake Gets License Suspended at DWI Hearing, Judge Threatens Gag Order

Justin Timberlake‘s going to have to stay off the road for the foreseeable future — ’cause a New York judge just suspended his driver’s license during a hearing.

The singer-songwriter — who appeared virtually from Belgium Friday — had his driving privileges temporarily yanked … with the judge citing the fact he turned down a Breathalyzer test when cops pulled him over in June.

Unclear exactly how long the suspension will remain in place — presumably, until the case wraps. Worth noting … this is SOP in NY — the law requires the DMV to suspend a driver’s license if they refuse a breathalyzer for up to a year. So … this was already coming.

BTW … Justin’s attorney, Ed Bruke Jr., was also reportedly reprimanded at the hearing … with Justice Carl Irace saying he made “irresponsible” comments when he appeared in court and tried to get the case tossed last month. The judge also threatened a gag order, if Ed keeps yapping.

Remember … Justin was pulled over after leaving The American Hotel in Sag Harbor — after cops say they observed him blow through a stop sign and weave on a residential street.

Cops say they asked Justin to step out of the car and perform a series of sobriety tests … all of which they say Timberlake completely bombed. Police arrested him on one count of DWI.

We obtained video showing Timberlake’s car driving on the night in question … though it didn’t appear to be swerving much in the surveillance video.

Timberlake was arraigned and released the next morning … and, his attorney’s quite clear he and his client plan to fight this case until the bitter end — with Burke Jr. even claiming Timberlake wasn’t intoxicated when he was pulled over.

Timberlake’s “The Forget Tomorrow” world tour — which he allegedly mentioned during his arrest — is still rolling on, which is why Timberlake didn’t appear in court in person Friday.
