On Wednesday, the 43-year-old entertainer's lawyer, Edward Burke Jr., spoke on his behalf after he was arrested in the Hamptons for drunk driving.

Per Deadline, the attorney stated, "I look forward to vigorously defending Mr. Timberlake on these allegations."

"I will have a lot to say at the appropriate time but am currently awaiting full discovery from the District Attorney's office."

The *NSYNC member's legal aid also dished to Us Weekly, "The charge was a single count because he refused the breath test."

"Mr. Timberlake was also charged with two other court citations, running a stop sign and not traveling in the correct traffic lane."

Justin's mug shot went viral after his Monday arrest when he was pulled over by Sag Harbor authorities for running a stop sign and swerving in the road.

Reports revealed that the Trolls actor, who's in the middle of his global tour, refused a breathalyzer and argued that he only had "one martini" at the restaurant he dined at prior to his arrest.
