John Galliano stands trial tomorrow

John Galliano will appear in court tomorrow (Wednesday) to stand trial over alleged anti-Semetic remarks he made against a couple in Paris café in February.

According to reports, the former fashion giant is still in rehab; his treatment is expected to be long and arduous but he is humble, apologetic and hopeful that he can recover.

His initial hearing on Wednesday will be held in front of three judges and no jury as it is a minor offense and will last between four and five hours, with witness from both sides giving evidence.

The 50-year-old designer will blame alcohol and drugs for his current miserable situation, while his lawyer Aurelien Hamelle admits John can't remember the alleged incident.
