Latest court update and next hearing
During Tuesday’s virtual session at Montville Township Municipal Court, attorney Alan Kraminsky told the judge he had met with the prosecutor. The prosecutor asked to delay proceedings so Giudice could complete an anger management program.

The judge agreed and set a new court date for Sept. 29. He also noted prosecutors still need to review discovery and interview responding officers.
What prosecutors allege in the arraignment
At Milania’s July arraignment, the court record said she struck a person identified as “LR” in the head during a domestic dispute.
The alleged blow reportedly caused visible redness to the victim’s forehead. The charge filed is one count of simple assault, a disorderly person’s offense under New Jersey law.
Potential consequences if convicted
- Jail: Up to six months
- Probation: Possible court-ordered supervision
- Fines: More than $500
How the May incident is described by police
Montville Township Police arrested Giudice on May 14 at the home she shares with her mother and stepfather in New Jersey.
The incident report says the dispute involved Giudice throwing food and candles. Gabriella Giudice, her sister, is listed as the reporting party and called 911 just before 6:15 p.m., telling dispatch her sister was acting erratically.
The report states no weapons were used during the altercation.
Dashcam footage and booking details
Police dashcam video obtained by outlets shows officers placing a handcuffed Milania into the back of a patrol vehicle. The clip includes her being belted into the seat and looking toward the open door before returning her gaze forward.
She was taken to MTPD headquarters, processed and released pending her next court appearance. She has pleaded not guilty.
Milania’s public response on social media
The University of Tampa student addressed the fallout in a late June TikTok. She pushed back against a circulating image she called an AI-generated mugshot and said she was going through a difficult period at the time of the incident.
In the clip, she acknowledged mistakes, suggested she’s trying to learn, and said outsiders do not know the full story of her life.
