Lindsay Lohan May Be Going Back to Jail for a DUI

Lindsay Lohan will appear in court today to respond to a judge's inquiry about a violtion of her probation in a 2007 DUI case. As part of her rehab, Lohan was ordered to undergo alcohol education classes.

Lohan's initial DUI sentencing included an 18-month education program, 24 hours in jail and 10 days of community service while on probation; the probationary period was set to last 36 months. The sentence came when Lohan pleaded guilty to drunk driving, reckless driving and driving under the influence of cocaine.

Witnesses claim that Lohan, who has been in and out of rehab multiple times for alcohol and drug abuse, is out partying again. Many of these reports claim the young actress never stopped her hard party lifestyle after her DUI arrest and rehabilitation stint.

Lohan will have to appear in court in person; if she is found to be in violation of her probation, she will have to spend time in jail. In some cases, a defendant will have to spend the remainder of the probationary period in jail if the terms of probation have indeed been violated.

Mel Gibson's Ticket Expunged

Mel Gibson’s DUI was expunged from his record by a judge yesterday.

Mel Gibson was arrested for DUI in Malibu in 2006, but became infamous because of his anti-semitic comments made to the arresting officer.

Expungement clears a criminal conviction from your record if you meet certain requirements. Once cleared, you do not need to divulge the conviction in job applications. For the most part, it looks like it never even happened.

If you have a felony, it might be possible for the felony to be reduced to a misdemeanor then expunged. Speaking to a good criminal attorney can ensure that all your options are open.
