Nicole's Trial Gets Delayed

Such a lucky girl!

Nicole Richie’s DUI court case has been pushed back for the second time!

A continuance was granted to the Simple Life star on Wednesday because a drug expert she has hired in her defense is not available to testify now.

“His testimony will be critical to Miss Richie’s case and there is no other expert retained by the defense who can testify in this regard,” Richie’s lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, wrote in her motion.

The start of her DUI case is now August 16th and Nicole will be required to be in court then.
