Looks like Lohan's going to be taking a page out of Paris' book. We're almost certain that Lohan is going to get the book thrown at her when she makes an appearance in court for her
DUI arrest.
Hollyscoop contacted the Los Angeles Police Department and they told us that unless Lohan has a super attorney that can work miracles,
SHE WILL FACE JAIL TIME. Here's some more info we gathered on DUI offenses.
Penalty: 1st Offense - 96 hours ( at least 48 of which shall be continuous) - 6 months county jail, fine, 6 months license suspension, probation, treatment program;
2nd Offense - 96 hours to 1 year county jail, fine, 24 months license suspension, probation, treatment program.
California has a DUI / DWI washout period of 10 years, calculated from arrest date to arrest date. This means that anyone arrested for drunk or drug driving within 10 years of the last arrest date will be charged with a second offense, with increased penalties and punishment. The punishment in court for a second or third drunk driving conviction is much harsher than for a first offense – a multiple-offense drunk driving conviction carries mandatory jail time, an 18-month alcohol education program, a required ignition interlock device, and more.
