Lindsay Lohan Leaves Rehab

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Child Stars, Drugs, Legal Issues,

Lindsay Lohan

has been discharged from the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Hospital after receiving just 22 days of treatment. It’s believed the 24-year-old star left the treatment facility via a back door yesterday afternoon.

The actress had been ordered by Judge Marsha Revel, the original judge presiding over her case, to undergo a three-month stint in rehab after her release from jail. However, staff at the facility recommended the sentence was excessive, and advised she should be released from the clinic early.

Lindsay Lohan Misdiagnosed, Demanding Apology From Courts

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Legal Issues, Rants, Rumors,

Lindsay LohanDespite being on rehab lock-down, is making quite the fuss, reportedly wanting an apology from the Californian courts.

The actress is said to be “fuming” after medical assessments at the UCLA Medical Center - where she is currently undergoing a 90-day stint as part of her sentence for breaching probation - found she may have been misdiagnosed with attention deficit disorder (ADD) and is not suffering from bipolar disorder or addicted to drugs as was previously claimed.

Instead, medics believe it is possible her prescription for Adderall, which treats ADD, led to her erratic behavior, meaning the 24-year-old star feels her sentence was unfair. “Lindsay is fuming - she is really upset that the courts put her through all this,” said a source.

Although the insider says Lindsay’s representatives are “exploring their options,” it is not expected she will be able to gain legal action against the perceived damage to her public image. Criminal Defence Attorney Steve Cron explained to Fox 411’s Pop Tarts, “No judge or prosecutor could be sued under these circumstances, they have absolute immunity. Judge Revel formulated her opinion of Lindsay based on the information she had at the time from another program. The judge could still be dissatisfied with the report from UCLA and seek independent opinions or insist Lindsay be enrolled in other programs.”

Lindsay Lohan Officially in Jail


UPDATE: L.A. sheriff’s spokesman Steve Whitmore says it’s likely Lohan will only spend 14 days in jail.

You won’t be seeing any more tweets from Lindsay Lohan for at least a little while.

The 24-year-old, who was once again running late for a date in court, arrived at the Beverly Hills courthouse early this morning to be remanded into custody. Lindsay, who was accompanied by on/off attorney Shawn Chapman Holley, had to face Judge Marsha Revel one more time before formally starting her 90-day jail sentence.

Lindsay didn’t speak during the brief court appearance, but nervously watched on, biting her nails.

It was claimed by Holley that Robert Shapiro - who reportedly quit as Lindsay’s lawyer last night - was never officially hired to represent her and only worked as a “consultant.” (Shapiro supposedly joined Lindsay’s legal team earlier in the week after Holley resigned, and then allowed her to stay in the Pickford Lofts sober living house he founded.)

Lindsay Lohan Loses Latest Lawyer

Lindsay LohanI know one shouldn’t focus on alliterative titles at a time like this, but…

Less than 24 hours before she is supposed to enter jail, has a new problem: she doesn’t have someone to escort her to the courthouse Tuesday morning.

The last time the troubled actress appeared before Judge Marsha Revel, Shawn Chapman Holley was the lawyer fighting on Lindsay’s behalf. Unfortunately, Shawn (understandably) parted ways with Lohan after the sentencing.

Although Robert Shapiro - one of O.J. Simpson’s former attorneys - had been hired to handle Lilo’s appeal, he informed the judge late today that he is no longer representing his client. It’s not known why Shapiro made the last-minute decision, though it’s believed Lohan may not have fully cooperated with his requirements.

Lindsay Lohan Submits to Random Drug Tests, SCRAM

Lindsay Lohan in courtAfter a weekend of hardcore partying in Cannes, is back in the states and has been ordered to submit to random drug testing.

The

professional party-goer

actress appeared in a Beverly Hills court today for a probation review hearing, where she was told by Judge Marsha Revel she can remain out on bail, but only if she abstains from drinking alcohol, wears a SCRAM bracelet - which monitors alcohol consumption - and attends at least one alcohol education class a week.

The judge also indicated the 23-year-old star must stay in the Los Angeles area, despite her being lined up to work on a movie in Texas. A formal hearing to determine if Lindsay has violated her probation - which she was placed on following her second driving under the influence (DUI) conviction in 2007 - has been scheduled for July 6.

If she is found in breach of the terms, Lindsay - who is expected to face at least five drug tests before then - could be jailed for 180 days. Lindsay was originally scheduled to appear in court last Thursday, but was stranded in Cannes, France, after claiming her passport had been stolen.


Is Lindsay Lohan Going to Jail?

Lindsay LohanTMZ seems to think so. The gossip site has learned that could be in serious trouble with the law for not following the terms of her court-mandated alcohol education classes. It’s a violation of her probation, and there’s good reason to think she’ll end up doing hard time as a result.

Judge Marsha Revel ruled that LiLo must attend alcohol classes at least once every seven days, unless Lohan received treatment through inpatient rehab. The judge ruled that if Lindsay violated this agreement, Lohan would be going to jail. Well…she’s violated it.

Lindsay Lohan will face the music on May 20, a progress hearing where it will be revealed that Lohan frequently waited up to 21 days to attend her court-mandated courses. If the judge holds firms to her former ruling, Miss Lohan will find herself behind bars before the day is out.

Lindsay Lohan driving 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.”
