Celebrity Justice
Mel Gibson DUI -- Like it Never Happened

Posted Oct 6th 2009 9:18AM by TMZ Staff

Mel GisbonUPDATE: 11:06 AM ET. We've learned no one is expected to show up in court. The judge has the legal papers from Gibson's lawyer, Blair Berk, in his chambers and we're guessing he's going to sign them and expunge Mel's DUI today.

The Mel Gibson DUI/"The-Jews-are-responsible-for-all-the-wars-in-the-world" saga may come to an end in a little more than 2 hours. Mel's lawyer will ask a judge to expunge the conviction from his record.

Mel was arrested in July, 2006 on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu. Initially authorities told TMZ the arrest occurred "without incident." But later that day, TMZ obtained 4 pages of the deputy's original notes that were taken out of the revised report -- 4 pages with a blow-by-blow of Mel's anti-Semitic rant.

Mel pled no contest to misdemeanor DUI and was placed on 3 years probation. Gibson has completed all the terms of his probation and it's not unusual at all for his lawyer to request that the conviction be expunged at the end of the probation period.

We'll be live streaming the action in Malibu at 8:30 AM PT, so stay tuned.

UPDATE: It's running late ... we'll be live as soon as it happens. Keep refreshing to check it out!

4. I don't see any reason for any DUI conviction to be taken off of a record. No matter who you are.

5. Don't worry. Mel will probably have another DUI conviction in a few months.

6. For the love of God, the dude was drunk. Have any of you people ever been on the sauce and said someting you later regretted? If thats the worst this man did that day, then I'd say to all you people get a grip.

7. For the love of God, people, the dude was drunk. Have any of you ever had too much of the sauce and said something you later regretted? If thats the worst he did that day, then I say get a grip!! The world is going to hell in a handbasket and people are still p!ssing and moaning about what he said. If you can't take that kind of talk, I suggest you stay inside your fantasy world and not venture any further out.

8. …so that was his crime???!!!
How is this anti-Semitic?!
This is his opinion based on what he knows – send him back to school.
…but crime? …anti-Semitism? …are you kidding?!

9. If Mel Gibson had run over a mother pregnant with twins, Hollywood surely would have forgiven him, maybe even held a fundraiser for his favorite charity. The problem is that Mel just isn't a Jew and he alledgedly used anti-semetic language. In Hollywood you CAN blaspheme Christians, desecrate Christmas, undermine decent family values etc., but you can NEVER EVER say anything less than glowing about the Jews. That's the real story here. Mel you should have known that. In the future you can do ANYTHING you want, but never say anything about the Jews, their stranglehold on Hollywood or Israel or matzoh balls or bagels or,....anything. But if you were change your name to Roman Polanski you can rape all the children you want and with Hollywood's approval.

14. I do hope no judge will expunge the conviction from his record.

15. Mel Gibson is a pig, a racist, a cheater and an anti Semitic alcoholic.
Read VOO the transcript of his words when arrested drunk as a skunk. Your 110 pictures had NOTHING whatsoever to do with him.

He should have his record for as many years as all the other citizens of Ca.

No to Mel's movies.
All power to the goldigger chick with him.
