Justin Bieber's Driving Under the Influence (DUI) trial has been delayed in Miami.
The 'Confident' hitmaker was due to appear in court on May 5 to face charges for DUI, resisting arrest and possessing an invalid driver's licence in January, but his lawyers convinced a judge to postpone the case until July 7.
A source also told E! News that the decision was made on Wednesday (23.04.14) at a preliminary hearing and another hearing will take place on June 25 before the trial.
The Canadian star celebrated the news by taking time out of his holiday to pay a surprise visit to an orphanage in Japan with his mother, Pattie Mallette, on Wednesday.
He shared a heart-warming video of himself hanging out with the children there on Instagram, with the caption: "Love these kids!"
His mother also wrote on Twitter: "In Japan and JB just randomly decided to show up at an orphanage and surprise some kids. #SoProud"
But their trip hasn't been without controversy.
The singer was forced to apologise after he posed for a picture at the controversial Yasakuni shrine in Tokyo, which honours those who died in conflicts spanning from the Boshin War of 1868 to the end of World War II, earlier this week, and admitted he had no idea what the monument stood for.
The 'Heartbreaker' singer is trying "to be a better person" and wants to repair his reputation after displaying bad behaviour in recent months.
Another insider recently said: "He's making more of an effort to hang out with people who are positive influences in his life.
"He has started listening to the people around him and he knows it is not too late to change things. He's being more selective with his friends. He wants people around him that will help him and guide him and keep him on the right path."

Gwyneth Paltrow has hit back at reports her lifestyle brand is struggling financially.
The 'Iron Man 3' star, who split from her husband Chris Martin last month after 10 years of marriage, plans to make a lot of changes to her website Goop.com, following the recent departure of its CEO Seb Bishop and speculation the company is $1.2 million in debt.
Speaking at a promotional event for her latest cookbook, 'It's All Good,' in Hong Kong, her first official appearance since announcing her separation, the 41-year-old beauty said: "Those numbers are based on filings from a couple of years ago, so you shouldn't believe everything you read."
But the Oscar-winning actress, who claims she lives a "quiet and domestic" life, also confirmed plans to make a lot of changes to the website in the next three months and is moving her company from London to Los Angeles, according to the South China Morning Post.
She said: "We're on the verge of a lot of changes at the website right now and we have some really exciting announcements coming up."
Gwyneth, who has daughter Apple, nine, and son Moses, eight, with Chris, added: "I really love my office job. I started Goop, my website, because I had a lot of creativity and I wasn't doing as many films."
News that the actress plans to focus on her growing her business comes just days after it emerged that British entrepreneur Seb - who began working for the actress in 2011 - resigned because he was allegedly upset that she used to website to officially announce she was "consciously uncoupling" from from Chris.

Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie still regularly "check in" on each other.
The 'Fargo' star, who split from the 'Maleficent' actress, 38, in 2002 after two years of marriage, admits he is still very protective of her, even though she is engaged to Brad Pitt, with whom she has six children, Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, seven, and five-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Asked if they are still friends, the 58-year-old actor told Your Tango: "Of course. She's amazing, amazing."
He added: "She's got so much energy and so much goodness in her, and we check in on each other all the time. She makes sure I'm doing okay [and] I make sure she's doing okay."
The 'Monster Ball' actor has been dating Connie Angland since 2003, with whom he has a 10-year-old daughter, Bella.
The 'Bad Santa' star also has three children, Amanda, William and Harry, from prior relationships.
Billy Bob previously admitted that he "blew" his marriage to the actress because of his insecurity.
During an interview in 2012, he said: "I blew it because I didn't think I was good enough for her. She has one way she wanted to live her life and I had another way to live mine and I was just too insecure.
"I did feel like the Phantom of the Opera hiding in the catacombs. People have actually said that I didn't deserve to be with her."
He added: "We had a great time together. We had a great marriage and I chickened out because I didn't feel good enough. That's all that happened. It was no big deal, we never hated each other."

Lupita N'yong'o has been named People's Most Beautiful woman.
The 31-year-old actress is thrilled to have taken the coveted title and hopes her appearance on the cover of the publication will help young black women feel "a little more seen".
She said: "It was exciting and just a major, major compliment.
"I was [especially] happy for all the girls who would see me on [it] and feel a little more seen."
The Oscar-winning star, who was born in Mexico and raised in Kenya, considered beautiful women to only the ones she saw on television who looked nothing like her.
She said: "Light skin and long, flowing, straight hair. Subconsciously you start to appreciate those things more than what you possess."
Lupita claims her mother, Dorothy, "always" told her she was beautiful growing up and she "finally believed her at some point."
Despite appearing on best-dressed lists after being made to look her best for red carpet events, the '12 Years a Slave' star insists the best compliments come when she is praised for her natural look.
She said: "[The best compliments are] when I have been called beautiful with not one drop of make-up on.
"And also before I comb my hair or put on a pretty dress. Happiness is the most important thing."
Last year, Gwyneth Paltrow was named Most Beautiful by the publication.

Justin Bieber has apologised after he posed at a controversial Japanese site.
The 'Baby' hitmaker visited the Yasakuni shrine, which is located in the country's capital Tokyo and honours those who died in conflicts spanning from the Boshin War of 1868 to the end of World War II, earlier this week, but insists he did so unaware of what the monument stood for.
He wrote the message "Thank you for your blessings," alongside an image of himself at the site on Twitter - a post which has since been removed.
This caused outrage since countries including China, South Korea, and Taiwan see the site as being unapologetic about the events of World War II and so Justin has reached out to fans.
He wrote: "While in Japan I asked my driver to pull over for which I saw a beautiful shrine. I was mislead to think the shrines were only a place of prayer. To anyone I have offended I am extremely sorry. I love you China and I love you Japan."
Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Qin Gang, is hoping the incident has helped Justin understand the importance of the historical relations between Chinese and Japanese.
He told the South China Morning Post newspaper: "I don't know the political stance of this Canadian singer, but China's view on Japanese leaders visiting the Yasukuni Shrine is clear and consistent.
"I hope this singer can learn more about the history of Japanese militarism, and the wrongful historical and militaristic views promoted by the shrine after the visit."
Justin previously caused outrage when for comments made during his visit to the Anne Frank Museum in Amsterdam and was arrested for driving under the influence in January.

Michael's mother, Diana Douglas, first confirmed that he and Catherine were back together last month.
She said: "They are together. I knew they would work it out. They're both gentle people, not hysterical. They're always very affectionate and easy with each other. I figured the more everybody stayed out of it the better."

Joan Rivers has poked fun at Lindsay Lohan's miscarriage.
The outspoken comedienne even stunned her daughter Melissa with her remarks, which followed the troubled actress' revelation on her 'Lindsay' reality show at the weekend that she had recently lost a baby.
Asked what she thought about the news, Joan, 80, told TMZ: "I hope she kept it."
As Melissa recoiled in horror, she added: "Excuse me, what do you think I am? I was born with a coat hanger in my ear."
The 'Fashion Police' host then laughed when she was asked if she thought the 'Mean Girls' star would have made a good mother.
She replied: "She would have been diapering the wrong end."
Lindsay, 27, made the revelation on camera when explaining why she had taken a break from filming the OWN show, which chronicled her attempts to relaunch her career following her sixth stint in rehab.
She said: "No one knows this, and we can finish after this, I had a miscarriage for the two weeks that I took off."
After a long pause, the flame-haired beauty added: "It's a very long story," and failed to offer any other details, including who the father of her unborn child was.
