Nicole Richie, who was to face the court today for her December DUI arrest in California, will now have an extra month to prepare her case.

Snitches claim that the new date is expected to be April 30.

On Dec. 11, Nicole was arrested and charged with DUI after allegedly being seen driving the wrong way on the 134 Freeway in Burbank, Calif. This is her second DUI arrest. In 2002, she pleaded No Contest to the charges and was given three years probation and had her license suspended for one year. According to California law, a second DUI conviction requires a mandatory five consecutive days in jail and suspension of driving privileges for one year.
