Matt’s DUI Trial Date Set For December 5th
Kevin November 12th, 2007
Fox12 in Oregon reported Friday that Matt’s DUI trial has been set for December 5th. Matt was pulled over last June, and later cited after failing a sobriety test.
HILLSBORO, Ore. — A trial date has been set for television star Matt Roloff, who is accused of driving under the influence.
Roloff stars in “Little People, Big World,” a reality television show on The Learning Channel that focuses on the lives of Roloff, his wife and his son, all of whom are dwarfs.
He appeared in court Friday and a trial date was set for Dec. 5.
In June, a Washington County deputy pulled Roloff over as he was driving on West Union Road.
Deputies said Roloff failed a field sobriety test and was arrested. He was taken to the Washington County Jail and cited on charges of DUII, refusing a breath test and failing to drive within a lane.
It was the second time Roloff had been linked to a driving under the influence charge. In 2003, he had a DUII charge dismissed after completing an alcohol diversion program.
Roloff and his family live on a farm in Helvetia, Ore.
The news site also has a video of Matt in court - for those interested.

Word has it on the TLC forums that the trial has been delayed until mid January, which explains why there has been no news about the outcome of the December 5th trial.
