AKRON, Ohio -- LeBron James' mom isn't helping her standing with the judge in a case accusing her of drunken driving. Gloria James showed up 10 minutes late Tuesday for a hearing in Akron Municipal Court. That prompted Judge Lynne Callahan to tell her lawyer that the Cleveland Cavaliers star's mom was no different from any other defendant. Gloria James is charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated, disorderly conduct and damaging police equipment. Officers said they pulled her over in January after her Cadillac Escalade almost hit their unmarked vehicle.
They said she smelled of alcohol, struggled while being handcuffed and kicked the window of a patrol car off its track.The hearing addressed James' automobile license suspension and if off-duty Akron officers had the power or authority to arrest her. Her trial is set for April 24.
