Lindsay Lohan will not stand trial for DUI -- but she'll do a teeny tiny amount of jail time.
She just struck a deal by pleading no contest to two counts of DUI (driving with a .08 blood alcohol level or higher). By law, Lohan becomes a second offender (with two DUIs) and must serve a minimum of four days in jail. But the judge cut that in half by ordering her to perform 10 days of community service in lieu of two of the days. He also gave Lindsay one day credit for time served when she was busted. That means she gets a grand total of one day in jail.
Lohan also pleaded guilty to two counts of being under the influence of a controlled substance (two separate incidents) -- both misdemeanors. She also pleaded no contest to reckless driving.
The judge said Lohan will serve 36 months probation and attend an alcohol education program for 18 months.
As to the controlled substance plea, Lohan was ordered not to use controlled substances. She's also required to enroll in a drug program. She's also required to stay for an unspecified amount of time at the Utah facility where she's currently in rehab.
Lohan was also ordered "not to associate with people with controlled substances."
On January 18, Lohan must show she's successfully completed rehab.

So what does this mean....The other 5 charges (misdemeanors) will be at a later date????
Don'y you know about that new law??
Celebrities don't get busted for felonies; only little people do!
Life is good when you have money fame etc.... LOL Easily escape the hands of justice. Beverly Hills Jail is a palace.. LOL
Good she took responsibility & plead guilty & hopefully this is the 1st step to recovery. She didn't fight it like some of those celebs would so she has to get some credit for that. I've seen regular people do much worse and not serve any time so she didn't get off easy, she didn't get treated harshly, she just took responsibility. Good sign...
I wish i was a celeb so i can drive around drunk on drugs and just book it to the nearest treatment center for a vacation and get off without being held accountable for my actions.
Geez why didn't my half wit parents throw me infront of a cam as soon as i was able to speak and make nothing my fault :( lifes so unfair.
im so fearful that this will make jail seem glamourous to young girls... now three littlle girl icons are headed to the slammer.
WOW four days? What a joke.
Lindsay probably wanted a few days in jail to keep up with Paris and Nicole. Yes, I think she's that stupid.
Time? friggin' 4 LA days, what is that, like equal to 15 to 25 at Rikers?
Yeah, she is lucky. Too, bad her name is not Hilton or she would have paid dearly.
Wonderful.
So, when does drug princess do her 4 days?
Like Arm Pits Hilton & Ritchie WHEN THEY DECIDE TO GO TO JAIL?
Let this countdown begin!!!
Say goodbye to the film career---till people forget to start casting her again in films that bomb.
Now that is the best news I've had all week!!! She wasn't even driving, those dudes lied, how else can you explain it? There is no evidence!!
