But Bieber, don't bother showing up to Miami criminal the Canadian paparazzi-magnet is not expected to appear at the Wednesday afternoon hearing.
The state is expected to drop the DUI charge, and his lawyers will accept a guilty plea for careless driving and resisting an officer without violence, according to Miami Herald sources.
As part of the deal, the Biebs will have to attend a 12-hour anger-management private classes, because anything else would morph into a media-and-fan frenzy that would be distracting to other participants.

Bieber's lawyers will appear before Miami-Dade County Judge Bill Altfield.
Back in January, Miami Beach police arrested Bieber and buddy Khalil Sharieff after they allegedly drag-raced down Pine Island Drive, which had been blocked off by the star's security team.
Bieber, 20, was behind the wheel of a high-octane, yellow Lamborghini after days of partying and recording music in South Florida.
When he was stopped by police, Bieber unleashed a barrage of bad-words, police said.
Last month, Bieber pleaded no contest to egging and vandalizing his neighbor's house. He was placed on two years of probation and was required to take anger-management classes, complete community service and pay restitution to the neighbor.
