Lindsay Lohan's jail sentence

Lindsay Lohan will spend one day in jail after pleading guilty to taking drugs.

The 'Mean Girls' star's legal team reached a plea bargain with Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney Danette Meyers after an hour-long hearing yesterday (23.08.07).

Lindsay pleaded guilty to two charges of being under the influence of a controlled substance (cocaine) and pleaded no contest to two charges of DUI (driving under the influence of alcohol). She also pleaded no contest to one charge of reckless driving.

This makes the 21-year-old actress a second offender - with two DUI convictions - which means she must serve a mandatory sentence of four days in jail.

But the judge halved the prison sentence by ordering the actress to 10 days of community service. Lindsay was also given one day credit for time she already served when she was arrested.

Lindsay had faced charges of DUI (driving under the influence), possession of cocaine, transporting a narcotic into a custody facility and driving on a suspended licence.

The judge also sentenced the 'Georgia Rule' star to serve 36 months probation and attend an alcohol education program for 18 months.

She was ordered not to use controlled substances and is required to enrol in a drug programme.

Lindsay is also required to stay at the Utah rehab facility, where she is currently being treated for drug and alcohol addiction, for an unspecified amount of time.

The actress was ordered "not to associate with people with controlled substances."

Lindsay must appear in court on January 18 to prove she has successfully completed her rehabilitation.
