Winehouse called to Norwegian court

Amy Winehouse has been summoned to appear in a Norwegian court on 12 January over her 2007 marijuana possession charges in Bergen.

Amy Winehouse has been summoned to Norway to appear in court on those old charges of possession of marijuana.

As previously reported, she was arrested in the city of Bergen along with her husband Blake Fielder-Civil and her hairdresser, back in October 2007 after being found with seven grammes of the drug. The three were released after paying a fine of £294, although Winehouse later disputed the fine.

Winehouse is now expected to stand trial in Norway on 12 Jan. Prosecutor Rudolp Christoffersen said: "I was informed by British police on 23 Dec that has been legally summoned, and we expect that she will be there when the trial opens on 12 Jan".

Christoffersen said that a summons had also been sent to Fielder-Civil, who is currently in prison in London, of course, and that British police were attempting to locate the whereabouts of Winehouse's hairdresser.
