Joe Simpson has been found guilty of driving under the influence back in August and has been sentenced.

Despite his efforts to plead no contest, Jessica's and Ashlee's father will serve three years of probation and attend an alcohol-education class.

Simpson was stopped in the Sherman Oaks area of Los Angeles in August when officers believed him to be intoxicated and made an arrest, later causing the 54 year old to spend the night in a jail cell.

The father of two is currently in the middle of divorcing his wife Tina of 35 years, amid rumors that he's gay; Simpson has subsequently denied the rumors.
