Lindsay Lohan: Stuck in France + Misses a Court Hearing = Arrest Warrant Issued

Lindsay Lohan, after missing her mandatory court hearing which stemming from her DUI case in 2007, received a warrant of arrest issued by Beverly Hills Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel. Shawn Chapman Holley, Lohan’s lawyer, said that she had a good reason for not showing up to court. The reason was that she was stuck at the Cannes Film Festival where her passport was stolen. “She has filled out police reports in Cannes,” Holley said. “She intends to fly back form Cannes at the earliest time.” However Revel was not receptive to any excuses. “She has a history of, from her prior alcohol program, not attending. Last time she was supposed to report at 8:30, she didn’t come until 10 or 10:30. She should have made sure that she either didn’t go to Cannes or if she went there, that she would be back two days before the hearing. If she wanted to be here, she could have been here. There’s really no valid excuse,” Revel replied.

The actress Lindsay Lohan, 23 years old, is currently on her third year of probation. She pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts of being under the influence of cocaine, no contest to two counts of driving with a blood-alcohol level above 0.08 percent and one count of reckless driving last August 2007. A judge had extended her probation for another year in October, and a prosecutor warned the actress that she will be facing jail time if she violated her probation.
