Lindsay Lohan (Dresses Appropriately For Court) Gets Sentenced To 30 Days For Parole Violation

Lindsay Lohan went to court today, dressed in a modest navy and white polka-dot dress, to find out exactly what her sentence would be for violating conditions of her probation.

Lohan, who was kicked out of the Downtown Women’s Shelter in Los Angeles for being a no-show, faced Judge Stephanie Sautner this morning in court and was sentenced to 30 days in jail.

The judge also was absolutely clear – no house arrest for Lindsay, she will be incarcerated.

Because of over-crowding, almost all non-violent offenders in California only serve 20% of that time behind bars. That translates to approximately 6 days of time.

Once she’s out of jail, the rest of Lohan’s remaining probation conditions were altered slightly – she must do all her community service at the Los Angeles County Morgue.

Sautner outlined a schedule for Lindsay to complete her time and she must start her work at the morgue the next business day.

Beginning December 14th, she must have completed 12 days at the morgue and 4 psychotherapy sessions. By January 17th, 12 more days and 4 more sessions. Each month she has to have that minimum number of days of work and therapy until the end of her probation – March 29, 2012.

Lindsay was also cautioned about tweeting her experiences at the morgue.

If she fails to comply the judge said she will issue an arrest warrant for Lohan and she will serve 270 days in jail.

Lohan was given until November 9th to surrender to be allowed to finish her Playboy shoot and get any personal affairs in order before she spends her week in a single cell.

Can I just say that I have high hopes for Lindsay because she dressed appropriately, finally! It could be a turning point and I hope it shows that she really understands that she’s responsible for her own predicament.

Lindsay Lohan’s Probation Revoked

Lindsay Lohan has just had her probation revoked by Judge Stephanie Sautner.

Lohan, who appeared in court today for a progress report on the community service requirements of her probation stemming from multiple arrests over the years, has a number of conflicting issues that the Judge wants to sort out on a hearing she scheduled for November 2nd.

The main issue is that the Mean Girls actress was kicked out of the Downtown Women’s Center – the place she was specifically ordered to perform her community service by Judge Sautner – because she missed 9 scheduled appointments.

Lohan was also ordered to complete the 360 hours in 4 hour shifts. The report the judge had said Lohan had only done one shift for less than 2 hours before she left.

Shawn Holley, Lohan’s lawyer, mentioned that Lohan has completed most of the probation requirements the court has set out for her, but the judge was not sympathetic saying Lohan made her own mess and only completed things in the days just before a hearing implying Lohan was barely making the commitments.

Judge Sautner noted that Lohan has completed her court-ordered shoplifter’s diversion course, but also remarked that she’s had 6 months to complete it and didn’t finish it until the night before this hearing.

The judge also told Lohan that the probation department did not have the authority to reassign her to the Red Cross, which it did last week after the Downtown Women’s Shelter said she couldn’t come back right away. Lohan will not get credit for those hours.

Instead the judge reassigned her to the other part of her probation – 120 hours in the morgue. Judge Sautner was very clear that Lindsay must complete at least 2, 8 hour shifts per week leading up to the probation hearing on November 2nd.

The judge decided Lindsay could have bail at $50,000 on each of the two counts she is serving probation for.

Lohan was taken out of the court in handcuffs to post bail and Holley said she had a bondsman on hand to handle her bail.

Soulja Boy Arrested For Felony Drug Possession, Out On Bail

Soulja Boy

Rapper Soulja Boy was arrested in Georgia early Tuesday morning, October 18, after a routine traffic stop revealed more than he and his passengers bargained for.

Soulja Boy, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, was riding in an SUV near Temple, Georgia, with four other occupants.   They were pulled over due to a broken light on their vehicle.  The Times-Georgian reports that the officer found “handguns, less than $50,000 in cash and more than five ounces of marijuana” in the car, which was a rental and was being driven by a hired driver.  A puppy was also evidently found in the car.

The men were all charged with three crimes:  felony possession of marijuana, possession with intent to distribute and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime.  Way’s bond was set at $10,000 and he was released on Tuesday afternoon after posting bail.

‘Hannah Montana’ Star Mitchel Musso Busted For DUI – He’s Only 20

Mitchel Musso, Miley Cyrus‘ former costar in the super successful show Hannah Montana has been popped for DUI in Burbank, California.

The actor, who is 20 years-old and under the legal drinking age, was stopped on October 16th after he was directed to slow down by an officer on the scene of an accident.

“He drove through the intersection and failed to do what the officer instructed him to do,” Burbank Sgt. Sean Kelley said.

Musso was then pulled over where police say they noticed a “strong odor of alcohol” and he failed the field sobriety test. He also blew well over the legal limit .08 in a breathalyzer test that was administered, according to TMZ.

The actor and singer was booked on the DUI charge and then released for $5,000 in bail. No word on if he will be charged for underage drinking.

Musso stars in two current Disney shows, Prank Stars and Pair of Kings. He also voices a character on Phineas and Ferb.

Anthony Michael Hall Arrested For Disturbing The Peace

Anthony Michael Hall was arrested on Monday evening in Los Angeles for allegedly disturbing the peace.

The 80s teen movie star (Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club with Molly Ringwald) had an ugly confrontation with a neighbor at his Playa del Rey, CA condominium complex.

A neighbor heard noises in the building and came out of his home to find Hall tearing up the plants. When the neighbor questioned Hall about what he was doing, the neighbor told police it turned frightening fast.

Hall allegedly responded with an obscenity and threatened to “beat him to a pulp.” A short time later, Hall knocked on the man’s front door and when the neighbor opened the door, the actor told him to come outside to fight, the sources said. The man slammed the door and called the police.

Hall’s neighbors also tell TMZ they are concerned about the actor’s temper. They allege this isn’t the first time The Dead Zone star has threatened them with one person telling the website they think they need protection.

“I have considered buying a gun to stay safe from Hall … he’s the scariest person I’ve ever encountered in my life.”

Hall was taken into custody by the LAPD without incident and released on the same night.

Redmond O’Neal Busted For Heroin Possession – Again

Still struggling with sobriety, Redmond O’Neal, son of the late Farrah Fawcett and Ryan O’Neal, was arrested in Santa Monica, California on Tuesday after being pulled over for a traffic violation and police found drugs in his car.

Redmond, 26, was stopped for making a left hand turn on a red light. The subsequent search of his car (which he consented to) turned up marijuana and heroin.

O’Neal was booked for the traffic violation, drug possession and parole violations. He is currently being held without bail while awaiting his next court appearance.

The troubled son of Fawcett and O’Neal has spent various lengths of time in and out of substance abuse programs and jails. He was arrested in 2009 for heroin possession while on probation for DUI and methamphetamine charges.

O’Neal was just days away from celebrating his one-year anniversary of sobriety after spending another stint in court-ordered rehab.

Lindsay Lohan’s Ex, Samantha Ronson Arrested For DUI

DJ Samantha Ronson was arrested for DUI at 10:30 AM Monday morning while driving through the California town of Baker.

The 33 year-old was leaving Las Vegas in a black Porsche with a female friend when she was pulled over for speeding.

Officers gave Ronson a field sobriety test that she did not pass. When the police asked her to take a “roadside blow” test (a less accurate breathalyzer,) she refused and was arrested.

The deejay was transported to the police station and she did submit to a breathalyzer at the station where it was determined she was well over the legal limit.

Ronson was reportedly cooperative through the process.

Ronson was working at Lavo nightclub in Sin City and on her way back from her gig when she was pulled over.

Samantha dated Lindsay Lohan in 2008 and into 2009 at the height of Lohan’s personal troubles. She is also the sister of British musician and producer Mark Ronson.

Lindsay Lohan Turns Herself In, Begins House Arrest

Lindsay Lohan is in the clink again, sort of.  She began serving her house arrest term Thursday morning after turning herself in at the Lynwood Jail.   What’d she do now?  I know it’s hard to keep track of Lindsay’s various legal issues; she has so many.   She pulled four months of jail time for stealing a necklace, remember?  But since the jails are overcrowded, she’s evidently eligible for house arrest.   Lucky girl.

Lilo was processed, fitted with an ankle bracelet (something she’s used to), and sent home, where she’s expected to stay put for at least the next 35 days.  The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department explained:

“She is now confined to the interior premises of her home at all times.”

Certain, as-yet unspecified, exceptions could allow her to leave her home during her term.  However, one thing is for certain: she won’t be let out to work off the 480 hours of community service she’s also been sentenced to. She’s been forbidden to do community service while under house arrest.

It will be interesting to see whether any of this actually does Lindsay any good.   I’m not holding my breath, though.
