Lindsay Lohan refuses to respond to arrest
admin | March 16, 2009
Lohan has refused to appear in court to respond to a warrant for her arrest, and has sent her lawyer to represent her instead.
Attorney Shawn Chapman Holley, confirmed to The Associated Press that she will appear in court on behalf of the 22-year-old actress.
The warrant was issued by a Beverly Hills judge on Friday, and carries a $50,000 bail.
Lohan’s lawyer believes the warrant was issued as the result of a misunderstanding and that it should be settled in court.
It has been confirmed by a spokeswoman for the distric attorney’s office, that the warrant has something to do with the actress’s probation.
Lohan was sentenced to three years probation following a pair of driving under the influence arrests in 2007. Ms Holley has confirmed that so far Lohan has complied with all court orders.
Lohan is bound by law to complete regular drugs tests and report to her probation officer. Failure to act upon this is a violation to her sentence.
The “Mean Girls” actress was arrested in 2007 when her Mercedes-Benz hit a tree in Beverly Hills.
A few weeks later, the star was arrested in Santa Monica after the mother of her former personal assistant called 911 to report that her car was being chased by SUV driven by Lohan.
Lohan pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts of being under the influence of cocaine, no contest to two counts of driving with a blood-alcohol level above .08 percent and one count of reckless driving.
The actress spent just 84 minutes in jail and was ordered undergo drug-rehabilitation treatment and to perform community service.
Lohan has been warned if she fails to comply with her probation she could face up to a year in jail on each of the drunk-driving and cocaine charges and 90 days on the reckless-driving charge.

Lily Allen has admitted she is so broke she has had to sell her £35,000 BMW 320 convertible to put food on the table.

After a long night of partying and drinking and in the small early hours at 2am, it probably seemed like a brilliant idea.
Lily, who is clearly not averse to mixing business with pleasure, is in America promoting her new album It’s Not Me, It’s You. During her stateside visit Lily has appeared on a string of talk shows during her Stateside visit, including the Tonight Show With Jay Leno and most recently, the Ellen DeGeneres Show and she has performed a light-hearted duet of Britney Spears’ hit Womanizer.
