Lindsay Lohan is not trying to get a restraining order against her dad ... but we've learned mama Dina is angling to do just that.
Our sources say Dina Lohan has been contacting Lindsay's lawyer, the effervescent Shawn Chapman Holley, ever since LiLo's last court appearance last month.
We're told Dina has asked S.C.H. to go to court on Lindsay's behalf and get an order keeping dad away from daughter. We're told Chapman Holley made it clear ... Lindsay is an adult and can apply for a restraining order if she wants, but Dina has no business in Lindsay's business.
Shawn Chapman Holley told TMZ Lindsay has not -- repeat NOT -- asked her to get a restraining order.
It's pretty clear -- Lindsay can't stand her dad ... at least for now. But she's not taking it to court.

It's hard to imagine wanting an extra year of probation, but when you're Lindsay Lohan -- and facing possible jail time -- it's actually a good thing.
A judge today decided to extend Lindsay's probation another year so she can finish her alcohol education classes. Her lawyer, the effervescent Shawn Chapman Holley, told the judge Lindsay has been extremely busy and has only been able to complete about half her classes.
Specifically, Lindsay has completed 15 of 26 individual alcohol classes and 13 of 26 group alcohol classes and 13 of 28 self-help sessions. She completed all six education classes.
Lindsay's lawyer says her client is doing a movie in Texas.
The prosecutor said if the court has to jump through hoops again to accommodate Lindsay, jail is the only answer.
All sides will be back in court for another progress hearing on December 15.

The warrant issued for Lindsay Lohan's arrest was just recalled.
Lohan's lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, made quick work of it in a hearing that lasted minutes. S.C.H. showed proof of compliance and that was that. Lindsay didn't show.
Lohan will enroll in a new alcohol education program -- apparently she had "personality conflicts" with her old one -- and will be back in court to prove it on April 3.
So much for those bogus stories that the hearing was about a driver's license...
Story developing ...

We know more now about Lindsay Lohan's court appearance and why there's a warrant out for her arrest.
The alcohol ed program director told the court Lindsay missed three days of classes in a 21-day period. But we're told the argument is that two of the absences were excused. That leaves one, and as we've already reported Lindsay's excuse for being a no show was the paparazzi made it impossible for her.
Lindsay's lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, will be arriving shortly without her client.
Stay tuned.

We know exactly why Lindsay Lohan is being hauled into court Monday and it's no big deal -- probably.
Here's why an arrest warrant was issued. Lindsay was in an alcohol ed program for more than a year and was in full compliance with her probation. Sources say not too long ago she decided to switch programs. She either was late or missed one of the classes at the new program -- she says because the paparazzi made it impossible for her to show up on schedule. So the program director sounded the alarm last week to the court. And that's why the judge issued a warrant.
Based on what we know this is not a big deal and Lindsay's new lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, should be able to have the warrant 86'd -- no problemo. The only wild card: There's a new judge on the case and she's really tough.
We're told Lindsay will not show for the appearance unless the judge decides she wants her there.
Stay tuned.
