Justin Timberlake has recently made a major legal decision regarding the release of his DWI arrest video on March 2.

The American singer reportedly filed a lawsuit to halt the release of police body cam video from his drunk and driving arrest in June 2024.

For those unversed, Timberlake was taken into custody on account of driving while intoxicated, eventually breaking two road rules, one for running a stop sign and one for failure to keep in the lane.

Now, the singer’s lawyer submitted the documents and maintained that Timberlake wants an order from a Suffolk County Supreme Court judge to avoid “the public dissemination of footage from his traffic stop” on June 18, 2024.

Timberlake’s attorney argued that it “constitutes an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy”.

In the court documents obtained by US Weekly, the Bye Bye Bye crooner’s legal team claimed that he is shown “in an acutely vulnerable state during a roadside encounter with law enforcement”.

The singer’s lawyer pointed out that the footage “would cause severe and irreparable harm” to Timberlake’s “personal and professional reputation” and would subject him “to public ridicule and harassment”.

Also, Timberlake’s attorney declared that the video “serves no public interest”.
