Nicole is on probation because of her 2006 DUI, when she was arrested after driving the wrong way on an L.A. freeway.

Nicole's probation was due to terminate next month, but today in court, her lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, explained to the judge ... because she had program-approved leaves of absence in order to deliver and care for her two kids, she didn't complete the required number of alcohol ed courses.

So Nicole's probation was extended until March, 2011. 

The judge said he would terminate her probation earlier if she completes the alcohol ed program before March. 

The alcohol ed report gives Nicole high marks, noting, "Her attitude is excellent."  Hear that Lindsay?

Richie ended up having pneumonia ... and is now being treated at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A., this according to her rep.

Richie's cough-filled testimony on Monday still did the job -- she was granted restraining orders against two paparazzi she claimed caused her to get into a car accident.

Mark Geragos, Nicole's lawyer, asked his client during the restraining order hearing this afternoon, "Did you call your husband?" Nicole answered, "Yes."

Sources connected with the case tell us Geragos misspoke and Nicole didn't correct him, but Nicole and Joel are not married. As a result, the restraining order does not cover Joel, though it will cover the kids.

Nicole Richie Gets Restraining Order

Nicole Richie Nicole Richie just won a temporary restraining order against two paparazzi who slammed into her car earlier this month.

A lawyer in Mark Geragos' firm, Tamar Arminak (inset), was in court this afternoon and convinced the judge the photogs -- Ivon Miguel and Bam Bam -- are a danger to Nicole.

They were ordered to stay 100 yards away from Nicole and have no contact -- either direct or indirect -- with her, her kids or her staff. Joel Madden is not covered by the restraining order.

In her declaration, Nicole says the harassment occurs "on a daily basis." She claims the paps have been "stalking our home, as we try to go about living our lives."

There's a hearing next month to make the restraining order permanent.
