The judge in the case read out, “I believe you are entering a not guilty plea here today, and I believe you had a chance to consult with the prosecutor and council and we are going to reset this matter for what we are hopeful will be a resolution, is that your understanding?”
To which Angelina’s attorney, James Leonard, confirmed and said “Yes, your honor.”
The judge then confirms the date for the next court hearing and says it is her understanding that the responding officers are not needed for it, which the legal eagle affirms is correct.
Angelina’s fiancé Vincent, aka Vinny, Tortorella was present on and off during the reality star’s first hearing.
The case was heard virtually.
As The U.S. Sun first exclusively reported Angelina was arrested on June 2, at her Freehold, New Jersey, mansion that she shares with her fiancé, Vinny Tortorella.
At the time, a source said there was an incident that required a visit from the Freehold Township Police Department.
Angelina was charged with “simple assault, criminal mischief, obstructing the administration of law, and resisting arrest,” according to the court clerk.
The Jersey Shore star was arrested at 11 pm, but despite being cuffed, she was never brought to the county jail and was just issued a ticket due to the degree of the crime.
Vinny was not charged during the incident.
When reached for comment, Angelina’s attorney told The U.S. Sun in June: “We look forward to resolving this matter favorably and putting it behind us.
“Angelina is home resting and has no further comment at this time.”
The attorney also told The U.S. Sun in a statement: “We look forward to resolving this matter favorably and putting it behind us.
