Judge scolds Courtney Love

NEW YORK (Reuters) -- Courtney Love showed up five hours late to a New York court hearing on a reckless endangerment charge Monday, drawing a sharp
rebuke from the judge, who warned the dazed-looking rocker that she narrowly missed being deemed a fugitive.
A visibly annoyed New York Criminal Court Judge Melissa Jackson admonished the 39-year-old singer that she was about to issue a bench warrant for
Love's arrest for being tardy.
"I want to make it clear to you that you are supposed to be in court at 9:30, not 3 o'clock," Jackson said. "Three o'clock is
not acceptable. The rule applies to you, the same as it does to everyone else."
Taking a box of cigarettes from her purse as she stood in the courtroom, and seemingly bewildered in pink spike heels, Love barely mustered an apology
to the judge, replying, "Sorry."
A California judge issued an arrest warrant for Love in February after the former lead singer of the rock band Hole skipped proceedings in two
criminal cases, but that warrant was withdrawn when Love made it to a later hearing.
Before her case was called on Monday, Love took a seat in the second row of the gallery, next to two other defendants, asked their names and offered
them cigarettes, which they declined.
Love is accused of reckless endangerment stemming from an East Village nightclub engagement in March in which police said she threw a microphone stand
into the audience, striking a man in the head. If convicted, she faces up to a year in jail.
As her lawyer, Scott Tulman, and prosecutor David Filer met at the bench with the judge to set up a schedule of court motions, Love became fidgety,
turning around to spectators in the courtroom, and began talking to another defendant handcuffed to a bench, until she was told to keep quiet.
Asked how she felt following the 15-minute hearing, Love answered: "I feel great except for this nonsense."
Earlier this month, Love turned herself in to authorities in California to face an assault charge stemming from an altercation with another woman in
April at the Los Angeles home of her ex-boyfriend. Days later she postponed a summer concert tour to deal with her mounting legal problems.
She pleaded guilty in Los Angeles in May to having been under the influence of cocaine when police found her breaking windows in the middle of the
night last October. She faces a separate drug possession charge in Beverly Hills.
