Attorneys for pop star Justin Bieber entered a guilty plea on his behalf on Wednesday to lesser charges for his arrest earlier this year In Florida where he was originally charged with resisting arrest without violence, a DUI and driving with an expired license.

Bieber was not present in court so his attorneys entered the guilty plea on his behalf for the misdemeanor charges of careless driving and resisting arrest without violence. The DUI charge was reportedly dropped as part of the plea agreement.

Part of the plea agreement requires Bieber to take a private anger management course and make a $50,000 charitable donation to a children's charity, according to media reports.

Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle had the following to say in a statement about the plea deal, "The strengths and weaknesses of the case motivated everyone to seek this appropriate resolution."

She also said, "The ultimate purpose of the Miami Beach Police Department's initial traffic stop was to end some rash juvenile type conduct before a tragedy occurred. The intervention and counseling parts of the plea should provide a pathway toward adult responsibility."
