Jaime Pressly has been arrested for driving under the influence (DUI).
The My Name Is Earl star was taken into custody in Los Angeles last night after police performed a sobriety test when they pulled her over for allegedly committing a traffic violation at approximately 11pm, according to TMZ. Law enforcement officials have not confirmed the 33-year-old actress' blood-alcohol level, although her bail - which is normally $5,000 - has been set for $15,000, which usually only occurs when a person is over .15 per cent. The legal limit in the state is .08 per cent.
Pressly is reported to have been alone in the car at the time of her arrest and there were no drugs found in the vehicle.
Paris Hilton Makes Deal, Avoids Jail Time
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Legal Issues,
Although it appears Lindsay Lohan might be heading back to jail, Paris Hilton will be avoiding a second trip behind bars ... at least, for now.
According to Clark County District Attorney David Roger, the socialite has reached a plea agreement in relation to her August 27 arrest. On that evening, Las Vegas police officers pulled over a vehicle driven by boyfriend Cy Waits. Hilton was later charged with misdemeanor drug possession (because less than a gram of cocaine was found in her purse) and obstructing an officer (because she lied about owning said purse).

Paris Hilton Charged With Possession
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Drugs, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Looks like the “It Wasn’t My Purse” defense didn’t get her out of this one: Paris Hilton has been charged with cocaine possession.
The hotel heiress could face up to four years in prison after 0.8 grams of the illegal drug was found in her handbag when she and boyfriend Cy Waits were stopped and searched by police in Las Vegas on Friday night.
It has been claimed District Attorney David Roger - who is overseeing the case - is set to sentence the 29-year-old socialite to prison, because he “won’t tolerate celebrities” who get into trouble. “Roger won’t tolerate celebrities coming to Las Vegas and thinking they can get away with illegal behavior. It’s going to be extremely difficult for Paris to get out of these charges, even with the brilliant legal skills of her lawyer, David Chesnoff,” said a source.
She is due in court on October 27 over the felony possession of a controlled substance charge, which was filed in court by the Clark County District Attorney’s Office.

A new month means a new drug-related arrest for Paris Hilton.
The hotel heiress kicked off her weekend with a brief stint in jail last night after cocaine was discovered in her purse. The 29-year-old and and boyfriend Cy Waits were initially pulled over by Las Vegas police when suspected marijuana smoke was seen blowing out of their car. Waits, who was the driver, was later booked for a DUI (influence of drugs) while Paris was held for possession.
Hilton, who secured celebrity lawyer David Chesnoff as her attorney, was released on her recognizance a short time later without having to post any bail. According to TMZ, the socialite plans to use the “It Wasn’t My Purse” defense as her excuse.

The DJ, who was in an on-off 16-month relationship with the troubled actress from the start of 2008, took to her Twitter account to support her former lover after the 77-year-old comedienne left a series of comments laughing at the star’s personal problems and upcoming jail sentence.

Cop at Lindsay Lohan’s DUI Scene Tampered With Evidence
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Legal Issues,
Whether or not people think she deserves it, Lindsay Lohan got a big break. Perhaps not career-wise, but more along the lines of her legal woes…
Lohan’s now-infamous 2007 DUI could have been a lot worse for the celebrity fashion designer. According to a Santa Monica Police report, the officer at the scene of the crime mistook her cocaine for a crushed breath mint!
“[I] discovered a folded Clinique sun care card with an unknown substance caked on to the surface of the card in Lohan’s right rear pocket… Some of the white substance fell to the floor. I used my foot to see what had fell but thought nothing of it. I did not recognize the substance attached to the card and initially thought the substance was a wet crushed breath mint. I put the card into the jail trash can next to the booking windows. I was looking at the floor and began to recognize the substance as resembling powder cocaine. I then recovered the card from the trash.”
Either she paid the guy or he’s a big enough fan of the actress to tamper with the evidence—could a police officer truly be that incompetent?

Probation Extended For Nicole Richie
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Celebrity Babies, Drunk, Legal Issues, Where Are They Now?,
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.”
