Jury selection has begun in that previously reported Britney Spears court case in which the singer is facing charges of driving without a valid licence. The trial appears to be going ahead, then, despite the fact that Spears' lawyer claims that she's been unfairly targeted because of her celebrity status, and has been attempting to have the offence reduced and settled out of court with a fine. An hour long conference with the judge yesterday failed to yield results, and the selection of jurors began the same day.
If convicted, Spears could face time in prison as well as a fine.
