Probation Extended For Nicole Richie

Lindsay Lohan could learn something from Nicole Richie, who recently extended her probation.
The socialite - who was put on probation in 2006 following a driving under the influence (DUI) offence, after being arrested for driving the wrong way down a Los Angeles motorway and failing a sobriety test - was told it wouldn’t be terminated next month as expected, because she hasn’t attended enough alcohol education classes.
According to her lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley - who appeared in a Los Angeles court yesterday - the 28-year-old starlet failed to complete the course because she has been too busy looking after her children Harlow, two, and nine-month-old Sparrow, her kids with her rocker fiance Joel Madden.
Her probation period has now been extended to March 2011, but the judge has promised to terminate it early if she completed the alcohol program before then. Despite the extension, Nicole has been praised for her work on the course so far. Her report states, “Her attitude is excellent.”

Lindsay Lohan Needs Alcohol Education

Lindsay Lohan has been ordered to attend regular alcohol education classes. The Mean Girls actress has been on probation for driving under the influence.
“I am going to order that this has to be done. It’s been long enough,” Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel said. “This has to be a top priority whether she has a job somewhere else or doesn’t or something else comes up. This has to be done once a week. Right now, the other things will take second place and this will take first place.”
Lindsay has until July 15, 2010 to complete six months of program time.
In October, Lohan was ordered to a Beverly Hills court amid rumors she was not complying with the court-ordered alcohol education lessons. TMZ claimed sources running the course contacted the court about Lindsay’s conduct and that she has been “outright violating the terms of the program.”
