Judge sets deadline for Bieber video case

A judge has set a Wednesday afternoon deadline for Justin Bieber's lawyers to file objections to the release of police video taken after his January 23 arrest.

A judge has set a Wednesday deadline for Justin Bieber's lawyers to file objections to the release of police video taken after the singer's January 23 arrest in Miami Beach.

Miami-Dade County Judge William Altfield ruled that any objections to additional video releases must be filed by 1400 Wednesday (0500 AEDT Thursday).

Altfield is already withholding for review four clips of police video that depict Bieber urinating into a cup for a drug test.

Bieber's lawyers want to review the entire 10 hours to determine if other images show the 19-year-old singer in various states of undress.

The Associated Press and other news media organisations are seeking the video under Florida's public records law.

Bieber has pleaded not guilty to driving under the influence, resisting arrest and invalid-licence charges.
