Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham pleads not guilty to DUI counts

U.S. reality TV star Farrah Abraham has pleaded not guilty to charges relating to her DUI arrest last month (Mar13).

The former Teen Mom regular was pulled over by police officers in Omaha, Nebraska early on 18 March (13), while she was parking her car outside a club.

Her lawyer appeared in court on Monday morning (29Apr13) and entered not guilty pleas on his client's behalf for counts of aggravated DUI, refusal to take a field test and disorderly conduct, reports TMZ.com.

A breathalyzer test conducted at the scene of the incident revealed her blood alcohol level to be almost twice the state's legal limit.

Abraham, 20, recently claimed she had just been sick and cranky - not drunk - at the time of the arrest, and she was confident the DUI charges would be dropped, saying, "Because I'm sick, I could not give an accurate breathalyzer test, due to coughing and shortage of breath... I have a lawyer and all will work out with my ticket."
